This Arctic charr was acoustically and carlin tagged as 33 cm long in northern Norway October 2016, recaptured October 2017 and again yesterday, nearly 7 years later. Released every time. Pretty cool🐟🐟🐟 @AquaticTracking @OceanTracking @NTNU_Museum @y_sindre @EvaThorstad

New paper out from our man Raphael, he integrates Sea scallop seafloor habitat data in the Bay of Fundy directly into his spatiotemporal stock assessment modelling framework. The habitat data exists thanks to the wonderful SEAM lab run by @CraigBrown_Dal academic.oup.com/icesjms/art…

“Our task is recognizing the resiliency of the ocean, but understanding that human beings can be part of the problem and the solution. We have to include more people in discussions about conservation. That’s the path forward.” - Fred Whoriskey #oceanscience #sharkconservation

I went to Acadia University today, where a dorm was transformed into a home for seniors forced to leave their long-term care home due to fires. The school's football team helped swap out regular beds for hospital beds. cbc.ca/player/play/221893229…
