Marine Zooplankton & Micronekton Lab

Knowing of #invasive freshwater #jellyfish #Craspedacusta is just the beginning. You'll need to share this information with others and join efforts to understand and manage their populations across #NorthAmerica. #UBC #GreatLakes greatlakesecho.org/2024/04/1… – at Duisburg, Germany

New research‼️: We've investigated morphometrics + stoichiometry + diel vertical migration of the widespread warm-water salp Soestia zonaria. Led by @FLuskow and co-authored by @BahlAlexis, @LadyZooplankton, #DebbieSteinberg and #EvgenyPakhomov #JPR academic.oup.com/plankt/adva…

New research‼️: We've shown climate change effects 🥵 on the distribution of #jellyfish (Aurelia and Cyanea) in coastal #Iceland waters. Unprecedented work for an understudied region in the North #Atlantic. Led by @FLuskow tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.… – at Boltenhagen, Germany

👉🏽Special issue on marine filter-feeding #invertebrates 🦐 in #JMSE is now accepting submissions! Guest editors are @FLuskow and #HURiisgård. mdpi.com/journal/jmse/specia…. Looking forward to advance the field with you! – at Lübow, Deutschland

Want to thank all citizen scientists and people involved in this year's #Craspedacusta and ecosystem monitoring programme at the Sunshine Coast #HotelLake. You did all exceptionally good! The season is now closed. #FreshwaterJellyfish – at Greater Vancouver A, British Columbia

Non-indigenous freshwater #jellyfish are still thriving in the early fall days in #BC. If you see them, please report back to @FLuskow coastreporter.net/local-news… #Craspedacusta #biodiversity – at Greater Vancouver A, British Columbia

First time #Craspedacusta, the #invasive #freshwater #jellyfish, seen in #CheakamusLake near #Whistler. If you see these inch-sized jellyfish across #BritishColumbia, say something and write to @FLuskow – at Greater Vancouver A, British Columbia

It is #freshwater #jellyfish season and with the heat for weeks, the #invasive #Craspedacusta will show up in ponds and lakes across BC soon. If you see any, please send a message to @FLuskow. Photo: Håkon Sönderholm. – at Greater Vancouver A, British Columbia

Successful kick-off day for the #Craspedacusta #CitizenScience project at the #SunshineCoast in #BC. Ferry ride back. Exhausted but hopeful. – at Gibsons, British Columbia

Thumb nail-sized freshwater jellyfish #Craspedacusta have been seen already this season 😳. About 10 days ago, locals reported them from #ShawniganLake, Vancouver Island, #Canada. If you see something, pass on the word to @FLuskow at #UBC. – at Greater Vancouver A, British Columbia
