Extended deadline! Until 15 Feb 2026, you can apply for #experimental #PhD position in our group to study species #invasions in the context of climate #warming and #eutrophication together with @kratina.bsky.social, Arnaud Sentis and Otto Seppälä. See bit.ly/4pcWMIV for details.

Next time an institution tells you how seriously it takes research misconduct, ask them if it's *this* seriously. www.bmj.com/content/297/...

Fish people! Does anyone have "Check-list of the fishes of the north-eastern Atlantic and of the Mediterranean (CLOFNAM)" (1979)? (unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/p...). I only need a photo of the synonyms of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar (no PDF needed). #CanIHazPDF #FishSci #TeamFish 🐠🐟🦈

Yet another brilliant blog post by @clauswilke.com in which he presents solid and carefully thought through argumentation on why deliberately publishing fewer papers may be a bad idea, hurting both quantity *and* quality of one's scientific output 👀 clauswilke.substack.com/p/from-the-a...

From the archives: No one reads your paper anyway

In 2013, I wrote a blog post about why it’s important to publish scientific results that nobody will read.

What is the point of adding obviously false positive metabarcoding detections to @GBIF? I'm looking at Scandinavian freshwater fishes and spend unnecessary time on filtering out e.g. tropical freshwater fishes "observed" in marine benthic fauna surveys... So much data litter... 🐟🐠

Hello World, if you have a manuscript involving any kind of parasite(s) in a freshwater ecosystem, we'd like to hear from you and hopefully publish your work in a curated collection hosted by the Journal of Freshwater Ecology. Please feel free to contact me here. 🧪🌍🌿 #TeamFish

Det dummaste jag hört! Förslaget: Utred om Östersjön ska göras om till en damm En skyddsvall som skär av Östersjön från världshaven skulle kunna minska risken för översvämningar av bebyggelsen. Det anser utredningen om klimatanpassning www.altinget.se/miljo/artike...

Looking for help with identifying some fish species on North Korean postage stamps. Any experts on Asian marine species around? #Fish #FishIdentification Identification to genus of family is OK I guess number 3 could be Sebastidae?

Nu har projektet #ImproveAquaticLIFE en egen hemsida. Jag länkar såklart till undersidan som omfattar de restaureringar av stenrev i Skåne som jag arbetar med. På sidan kommer man bl.a. kunna följa hur många av åtgärderna som har utförts och läsa rapporter från arbetet. #SweGreen #SverigeUnderYtan

We'd like to congratulate Prof Colin Adams who's been awarded this year's #BevertonMedal! 🏅 Colin was previously the FSBI's president and holds the chair in Freshwater Ecology @uofglasgow.bsky.social. His work includes evolutionary processes in the emergence of new fish diversity and fish migration.

Tack till min coola kollega på LST VG, Anna Dimming, för att du tar bladet från munnen. Många tycker att statliga tjänstepersoners utrymme att överhuvudtaget kommentera något regeringen gör och säger som rör deras arbetsområde, är eller ska vara noll. De har fel.

Det här känns som att det kan bli mycket dyrare i längden? Att bekämpa invasiva arter som rubbar existerande ekosystem är liksom svårt nog innan de har etablerat sig. Om de har etablerat sig, och kanske saknar naturliga hot, kan arbetet bli väldigt tungt. www.dn.se/sverige/rege...

Bluetorial-A dream and a bit of a nightmare Serving as Editor-in-Chief at Science was fascinating. I greatly enjoyed working with talented and committed editorial, news, graphics, and production staff. But the inside look into scientific publishing and AAAS was also deeply disillusioning.

We figured out how to measure streamflow from timelapse images taken by an inexpensive, off-the-shelf trail camera, thus making hydrologic monitoring something pretty much any one can do, any where. usgs.gov/apps/ecoshed...

Yet another proof that @elsevierconnect.bsky.social has given up on the quality of all forms of editorial work. There's obviously no copy editing anymore. So, what are we really paying for with subscription-/open access fees??

Another Elsevier paper with obvious AI-written text. “In summary, the management of bilateral iatrogenic I'm very sorry, but I don't have access to real-time information or patient-specific data, as I am an AI language model. “
