#JFB: Impact of turbidity on the gill morphology and hypoxia tolerance of eastern sand darter (𝘈𝘮𝘮𝘰𝘤𝘳𝘺𝘱𝘵𝘢 𝘱𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘶𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘢) doi.org/10.1111/jfb.15… #FishSci @pcraig77, @Britney_Firth
Want to know the difference between temperature, hypoxia, and exercise on metabolism in fish? Check out @this_is_brit & @Britney_Firth latest paper in rainbow darters! Great work coming out of the new WATER Facility @WaterlooSci onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jf…
In their #JEB100 Commentary @TurkoLab @Britney_Firth @this_is_brit & co outline why physiological differences between wild & captive animals may occur & discuss strategies to reconcile lab & field results to obtain ecologically relevant data journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/22…
I had the amazing opportunity to reintroduce Southern Appalachian Brook Trout back to their native range with @TNAquarium Conservation Institute! #Conservation 🐟🐟
It has truly been an honour to study one of Canada's most endangered species throughout my Ph.D. Here is a short video highlighting my work. #UWINGradShowcase @PitcherLab @iBioUWindsor @ScienceUWindsor @GLIERUWINDSOR @UWindsor
Officially completed thermal tolerance on 5/6 Sand Darters! From top left 🔃 Florida Sand Darter, Naked Sand Darter, Southern Sand Darter & Scaly Sand Darter. Eastern Sand Darter (not shown) is identical to Southern! Even in ID books they only shown one picture for both species!
Check out @WaterlooBio PHD candidate @Britney_Firth working in partnership with the @TNAquarium extending her Eastern sand darter thermal tolerance work to Southern populations of Ammocrypta species. Can’t wait to see all the amazing data! m.youtube.com/watch?v=S402tv…

First week done conducting thermal tolerance on Eastern Sand Darter in the field. Plus a cool catch of a Mudpuppy!
How can we predict species responses to #climatechange if they are going to experience temperatures that we have not observed yet? New paper in @PNASNews led by Ty Wagner incorporates thermal tolerances into statistical models of abundance. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
🏆 Very proud to present @this_is_brit as the 2022 #NSERC and @lorealcanada @CCUNESCO @4womeninscience Fellow! Thank you for being a role model for the research community and for future scientists and engineers! ▶️ tinyurl.com/mrx3u7ma
Do #antidepressants affect thermal tolerance (#agitation & #CTmax) and HSP expression in #zebrafish? Allison Weber explores this question in our new #preprint. This was Allison’s (current MSc) undergrad thesis working with @Britney_Firth & @IvanCadonic. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
I ❤️ @APS_CEPS. Had such a good time. Thanks @SLUCompPhys and the APS staff for organizing, and to @Britney_Firth and @pcraig77 for inviting me. I don't have a picture to go with this tweet but here's @DrTBlew giving an awesome talk as usual, earlier today.
Amazing talks at #comparative2022 @APS_CEPS both in the lab to field session and the hypoxia and temp session! @graham_raby @LeeuwisRobin @amphibiousfish @this_is_brit - shout out to the session organizers too @pcraig77 @RachLMorgan13 @AnnaHAndreassen @Britney_Firth
This one was hard to write, but cathartic to share. My experience with eco-anxiety and self-worth as a working biologist in the age of climate catastrophe. medium.com/@austonchhor/e…
A great fall day for field work! Lots of fish (darters and shiners) and many projects happening all at once…behavioural work, thermal tolerance, and hypoxia tolerance #climateeffects plus a cool side catch of a four toed salamander
A portion of all book funds will be donated toward freshwater conservation to continue to support the conservation of our beautiful species. amazon.ca/dp/B0BGN8Y9P7/…
Love seeing all the good work SARNET completed! More to come in the future as well!🐟

It’s a fantastic paper! I sent it to my team yesterday! Well done!
This paper has a little bit of everything... hypoxia, exercise, warming... :3
Want to know the difference between temperature, hypoxia, and exercise on metabolism in fish? Check out @this_is_brit & @Britney_Firth latest paper in rainbow darters! Great work coming out of the new WATER Facility @WaterlooSci onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jf…

@C_Madliger reporting on her stress physiology research in relation to light pollution on Lake Sturgeon at the @scas_scsa conference - collab with @SJC_fishy and carried out at @GLIERUWINDSOR @FRECUwindsor
Had tons of fun this week catching redside dace for a seasonal remodelling project with @PitcherLab. So nice to work in healthy populations in the USA, and to dream about what we could have in Ontario with some concerted conservation action.
Exciting News! My new children’s book is here! 📚Dive into the adventure with Sam and Stu, the Lake sturgeon! Early release copies are now available with 100 signed author copies up for grabs at streamsidestories.ca! 💫 Special thanks to @PitcherLab
Some great work by @Britney_Firth on the impacts of turbidity and temperature on gill physiology of darters in the Grand River sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Our very own @olivia_mayy8 is being profiled here for her impactful work on species at risk freshwater fishes by @ScienceUWindsor - the research examines how we can increase the well being of captive bred fish and also examines the potential effects of road salt during the winter
Amazing defence today @Britney_Firth ! And this had to be a first…you got your 4th chapter accepted for publication right before the defence, and your 5th chapter accepted right after!! Absolutely wild!! Fully published thesis! Great work!!
Do you ever think about sub-lethal impacts of stress on fish? 🐟 If so, we want YOU to contribute to our session at @ICBF_2024! Come nerd-out as we discuss vulnerability to environmental stress across all different species and life stages 🤓
Fun paper, which came out of us hanging out at @APS_CEPS San Diego (Nov. 2022) in a session that @Britney_Firth and @pcraig77 organized. Evidence:

It was a real pleasure to host another class today at @FRECUwindsor , a partnership with @TownofLaSalle , to conduct “experiments” to better understand the consequences of using too much road salt in the environment, thanks to funding from @FishOceansCAN for the funding
Fish Friday: The Scaly Sand Darter (Ammocrypta vivax) is a species that is native to the south-central U.S. They can be found in moderately-sized streams over sand substrate. This individual was observed in the Little River of Arkansas. 📸: Savannah Wise.
Incredible pleasure to bear witness to the #reintroduction efforts for Lake Sturgeon (2 juveniles about to be released) in the #GreatLakes south of the border - even sporting some of the new @GLIERUWINDSOR swag
Incredibly productive and fascinating visit (along with @Ashley_Watt_M) regarding captive breeding and reintroduction biology for imperilled freshwater small bodies fishes with the researchers and staff at the @TNAQsci - looking forward to more collaboration!
Great day speaking with staff and visiting @TNAquarium with @PitcherLab learning all about freshwater fishes and reintroduction.
This weekend I’ll be taking my first road trip in 3 years to Tennessee! All next week I’ll be learning about captive breeding endangered freshwater fish with Conservation Fisheries Inc. and @TNAquarium. Can’t wait 😍
📢 Exciting News! 📚 This fall, I’m thrilled to announce the release of my 2nd children’s book, “Sam and the Magic Key: A Quest to Save the Lake Sturgeon”! Dive into this enchanting adventure with Sam, a curious young explorer, as he embarks on a magical journey. @PitcherLab
