Join us at the #SWEEET Symposium on May 14 (1:30-5pm) at #CSEE2026! We're tackling three barriers facing equity-deserving researchers: parenthood, fieldwork access & socioeconomic challenges. Featuring talks by Drs. Courtney Robichaud, Rachel Giles & Diane Srivastava. We hope to see you there!

Many thanks to Drs. Akira Mori (@akkym.bsky.social), Shinichi Tatsumi and Xinyu Xu for the invitation to present at their Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning Symposium at the Ecological Society of Japan Annual Meeting in Kyoto. Wonderful to be part of such a great lineup of speakers! #ESJ73 #BEF

I'm excited to read this. It looks like a very interesting study!

Thanks Carling! I appreciate it :)

Our findings challenge assumptions of stable equilibria common to #fisheries management and #ecology more broadly. The results suggest that variability from climate change as well as fishing-induced age truncation may lead to larger and/or more frequent boom-and-busts.

New in @natecoevo.nature.com, we show that nonlinear dynamics like oscillations & chaos occur in 81% of marine fish populations worldwide. Nonlinearity was correlated with the magnitude of fluctuations & amplified by temperature variation & in fast-lived species. 🌍🌐

Very cool study! I enjoyed the write up too. And of course Julian was up for the 4am wake-up calls haha - he's the best!

Nice!! Congrats Lucas & co !

Temperature variation and life history mediate the degree of nonlinearity in fluctuations of global marine fish populations Nonlinear dynamics readily occur in natural ecosystems and can drive irregular population fluctuations through oscillations, chaos and alternative stable states. However, the effects of anthropogenic ...

Our results challenge assumptions of stable dynamics and suggests nonlinear fluctuations of fish populations are magnified by size-selective fisheries and increasing environmental variability from global climate change

New preprint! We analyzed ~500 global marine fish time series using #EmpiricalDynamicModeling and show that temperature variation amplifies nonlinearity in juveniles and adults, while life history mediates nonlinearity for the latter, dampening it in slow-lived species #Ecology #Fisheries

This looks very interesting, I look forward to reading the paper. Congrats to your team!

Extremely grateful to receive the award. Thank you @asn-amnat.bsky.social for supporting my work!

I usually reserve this account for my personal views; but today I want to represent my position as President of @asn-amnat.bsky.social to post a message that will shortly go out to the membership of the American Society of Naturalists from the ASN Executive Council

Really enjoyed reading this cool paper and am looking forward to the package!

Could you please add me to it? Thank you!

This is great, Asher! Could you please add me? Thanks
