Check out my recent publication to understand the relationship between population-level and community-level diversity metrics and how fragmentation affects those relationships for crayfishes? peerj.com/articles/18006/

Our mussel surveys on the Current and Jack's Fork are almost wrapped up. Our lab found lots of interesting things despite the overall scarcity of mussels in the system.

Bluestripe Darters are difficult to come by this summer, but every now and then we get one in the net. This fantastic crew has put in great work this summer and is putting dots on the map and collecting important genetic data.

Our lab is tracking crayfish with multiple methods. We have VIE, p-chip, PIT, and radio tags out at multiple sites. The data we obtain from these efforts will shed new light on crayfish movement.

Most days I sit behind a desk and stare at a screen. But sometimes, I get to do the fun parts of science. We installed 3 PIT antennas in the Big Piney River over the last two days and I can't wait for the aquatic organism movement data to start rolling in!
