- New paper out! 📢 We tested whether boat activity from an eel telemetry study disturbed protected waterbirds in a UK reservoir. 🦆 No evidence of disturbance. 🌦️ Bird numbers varied with weather + season. conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Protection targets not enough to safeguard megafauna. New paper in @science.org, led by @anammsequeira.bsky.social 👇 📸silvana-palacios,daniel-torobekov

- Great to see our new paper on the impacts of water flow and crest shape on juvenile #eel movement on fish passes now out in the Journal of #Fish #Biology! #openaccess #science #freshwater @zslscience.bsky.social @jack-brand.bsky.social @ucl.ac.uk onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
- Reposted by Mike WilliamsonSuper happy to see our new article on how pharmaceutical pollution can influence salmon migration out in @science.org! This was a huge effort by a great team of researchers over the last few years! You can read the paper here: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…!
- Nice new paper out reviewing the use of #biologging as a platform for monitoring environmental threats and aiding marine management. Also introduced me to the term Internet of Animals, which made me happy #science #behaviour #Marine www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
