Just a few #HamiltonHarbour "Eiffle Towers" (Ceracium) to count 👀. #Phytoplankton

Witnessed a (weird) good pet trade interaction today. Don't know the details, but fish were being surrendered to a pet store. Yay for not dumping fish into the lake, harbour or stormwater ponds. #PetTrade #InvasionPathway

Hiya Science twitter. Does anyone know of any online or in-person ID training for organisms that #biofoul? Looking for general classification of #inverts, #algae, #Zooplankton, everything. In exchange, have a picture of a gecko from my recent holiday!

Ballast water regulations put into effect in 2006 (by Canada) & 2008 (USA) appear to have substantially reduced the rate at which the Great Lakes is invaded by non-native species. However, invasion risks posed by 'live trade' remain high. theconversation.com/ballast-water-…

Field work FOMO-ing real hard tonight. My crew is out in the field doing #BallastWater testing and my ex- crew is out on the Limnos doing #Mysid sampling. Warren Currie @[email protected], think Kelly wants to trade for a night so I can get it out of my system?

Let's play... spot the (dead) #Bosmina. **BALLAST TANK HARD MODE** Yes she is in there.

T'is the season for over-salting.....

Shake it baby shake it! #DNAextraction #Phytoplankton

Now that the gift has been given, I can share my latest #zooplankton cross-stitch project. Thrilled how it turned out! Happy little Ceriodaphnia ❤

Here I come world!

Tis the season... for an EXO PARTY! #BallastWater research and Warren Currie @[email protected] 's #LowerTrophic research use the same sensors so we collaborate and calibrate all at once!

🚨A new review article from the Bailey Lab!🚨 It is a review of 253 articles to understand the observed and potential impacts of climate change on different species and ecosystems in the Arctic marine region! cdnsciencepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Maybe Sully should have taken her "unidentifiable unclassifiable hybrid chimera ice core extraterrestrial organism" to a marine biologist #Plankton #Echinoderm

🔥NEW PAPER ALERT🔥 The latest Bailey Lab research paper examines ballast water compliance monitoring devices (CMDs) capable of testing both 10-50 and >50 size classes in a series of lab-based freshwater and marine tests. 🌊 💧 🛳 🚢 🔬 🦠 🌱 🪳 academic.oup.com/plankt/advance…

Captured a unique perspective on my little #Bosminid buddy today. #HamiltonHarbour #CWQ #zooplankton

My little Alona sp. friend decided to be a good photography subject and sit still for a short video! #HamiltonHarbour #Zooplankton

Here in #Halifax visiting BIO for the first time! Learning all about marine macro #inverts and eating some yummy local seafood!

Some #biofouling species on parade! Blue mussels, skeleton shrimp, amphipods oh my! And tunicates with anemones on top! #Halifax
