Over the next few weeks we will highlight some of the research being done by our undergraduate and graduate student members. Stay tuned!

AFS member Will Rosenthal's research highlighted by Biodiversity Institute!

Proud of this one. Our ultimate goal is to help kill less fish when trying to study how they eat and move (w/ isotopes). And we did it for a bunch of "rough fish"! Key support from two fishy groups: 1) CO/WY AFS Chapter (& UWyoAFS), 2) North American Native Fish Association.

Cisco job alert: Student contractor USGS Ann Arbor, MI studying Cisco restoration in the #GreatLakes. Deadline Nov. 26, 2021. Apologies for the screenshots, I got this in an email. If you have a link to an online posting @Brantromyzon please share! #GreatLakesSci #fishsci

Evidence of Cutthroat-Rainbow Trout hybrid breakdown from NW Wyoming: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… Research by Will Rosenthal @liz_mandeville @awaltersWY Katie Wagner @cewagnerlab.bsky.social

Smallmouth Bass are expanding their range in the Laramie River and negatively impacting native minnow species: link.springer.com/article/10.100… Research by Mark Kirk, @BryanMaitland @awaltersWY et al.

Happy Fathead Friday from the University of Wyoming!

Interesting paper by David Roon, @ryan_bellmore et al. finding little influence of riparian thinning on upper trophic levels (fish & amphibs) despite influencing lower trophic levels: doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.4… Makes me wonder how often low-order stream fishes are limited by food?

Check out this cool work from @UWyoPiE alum Mark Kirk and Prof. Frank Rahel showing range expansions of native and non-native freshwater fishes: doi.org/10.1111/eff.12…

Cool new research from @UWyoPiE faculty @awaltersWY and others shows you don't need to be a time-series stats expert to test hypotheses with time-series data: doi.org/10.1002/ece3.9…

Check out new work by @UWyoPiE grad student Jeff Baldock on the use of redd counts as a trout monitoring tool when they are built on top of each other! cdnsciencepub.com/doi/abs/10.113…

The new 'rivnet' #rstats package is now out on #CRAN! cran.r-project.org/web/packages/r… 'rivnet' allows a seamless R-based extraction and analysis of #river networks and watershed data from #DEMs with no need to install and operate #GIS software (1/4)

Check out this cool new work by our very own Caroline Rosinski William Fetzer and others demonstrating that the isotopes in trout eye lenses can be used to determine natal origin! Crazy!!! Published by American Fisheries Society

Our very own PhD student Meredith Journey, formerly of UW SAFS , is running for Western Division American Fisheries Society Student Representative! Read her bio and vote here: wdafs.org/2023/03/20/202…
