From our #FreshwaterEcology track:
Chinook #salmon vary in where they spend their 1st year; new research shows how this #LifeHistory variability can drive population dynamics

ALT Annual survival estimates between the mouth of the Wenatchee River and McNary Dam and marine return rates between passing downstream of Bonneville Dam as a juvenile and returning to Bonneville Dam as an adult between 1 and 3 years later. Different juvenile life history pathways are shown in different columns of panels

Dreaming of a world where we all think like decision analysts 🤩 #SDMCoP
Worth the early wake-up call @conversesj
This is truly excellent!

QCons Lab trip to @UW Women’s basketball thanks to @scheuerell and @mark_scheuerell. Go Huskies!
Zoom captioning rendered "Cormack-Jolly-Seber model" as "Karmic Jelly Sewer model" in my lecture recording from yesterday. Just hoping this doesn't resonate with the students. @LabGardner

Great postdoc with a wonderful advisor and scientist @AlexMcInturff. Come to Washington and help us figure out this whole chronic wasting disease thing.
Exciting new postdoc position at UW on the human dimensions of chronic wasting disease management is now open for applications! depts.washington.edu/wacfwru…
Its great when your student has a supportive partner who really tries to understand the #PhD experience.

Bird-dom outdid itself with the albatross. ❤️❤️❤️
SUPER SLO-MO Check out this slow-motion footage of a Tristan albatross in flight over #Gough– can you catch where it lands? The #albatross fledglings have a while before they’ll need to perfect a land-landing! #WandererWednesday 🎥Georgina Cole @rzss @NatureTristan @Natures_Voice
Great new group of @NW_CASC Fellows including our very own @labbbratt!
🍂🍁🍃 Leaves are changing & the weather is blustery, which can only mean 1 thing - this year’s @NW_CASC research fellows are kicking off their fellowship activities! Meet these researchers developing science to address real-world #ClimateAdaptation needs! bit.ly/2ZyyqCj
Please RT! I am recruiting a graduate student to lead work on the extraordinary but threatened Cascade red fox in Mt Rainier NP, in collaboration with @TCastanea and @ilovewolverines. Accepting applications through December 1 @UW_SEFS or @UW_SAFS.
