Brand new #AcousticTelemetry #RStats package! Existing packages track fishes in straight lines between receivers even when there's land in the way, but RSP takes land into account and estimates the shortest path around these barriers. Very cool package! #trackingnotslacking

bringing this gif back so maybe I will remember it this time #rstats

When reading an article makes you feel dumb, you’re probably reading a mediocre article. A good article makes the reader feel like they can understand anything.

🥳 Happy to report that the #rstats {equatiomatic} package now supports binomial and poisson regression models from `lme4::glmer()`! Give it a try with the dev version: `remotes::install_github("datalorax/equatiomatic").

This is a great read on scientific writing- a unique take with creative solutions to common problems. I give it my second highest recommendation! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.100…

Crawling out of the home office for the first time since 2020 to kick off our last eel tagging season for Apoqnmatulti’k, a collaborative project between academic, local, & Mi’kmaw knowledge holders ☀️ #BayofFundy

This shouldn't be this funny, but unfortunately it is

When a friend asks you if you want to help them tag eel, is there any answer other than “HELL YES!”? Thanks a lot Gabrielle Deveau for letting me help you tag today!! Katew are a beautiful, mysterious fish and it was an honour to work with them. Ocean Tracking Network

I don’t know what it is about this week.. but I found yet another eel, this time a silvered adult in the ocean. Also pictured: isopod and a fraction of an Ammodytes sp. school that was hundreds if not thousands strong. Just a typical summer swim in Nova Scotia

I sometimes get so overwhelmed by everything that I just shut down: I watch a movie, eat too much, take a nap, whatever. And academia's deadlines are so flexible that I can do it for a while! I know others experience this too, so here are some strategies to get out of the cycle.

GAMs are tricky but thank goodness for Gavin Simpsom and Eric Pedersen resources. Came across a great summary of the different types of smooth terms for HGAMs (cubic, thin plate, duchon, tensor product, markov random field, soap film, spherical) here: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Session 2 of the Ocean Tracking Network Symposium - a panel discussion about the importance of bringing other (non-Western) worldviews into academic science and pairing these different ways of knowing to fill gaps in research. Inspiring!

The 2020s of telemetry are upon us! Robert Lennox setting the scene for our next Ocean Tracking Network Symposium session. Can't wait to hear this panel's thoughts on the future of telemetry research

Anyone else double-click on written text with the intention of wrapping it in quotes or brackets? 🥴 #rstats
