A recent note of ours on anadromous Lake Trout ecology and habitat use featured in an AFS habitat section blog. This was a fun little bonus project with Jean-Sébastien Moore Matt Gilbert Fisk Lab The Swanson Lab Ocean Tracking Network #arcticresearch #CambridgeBay habitat.fisheries.org/how-lake-trout…

"As an early-career researcher studying the impacts of contaminants... these observations made one thing abundantly clear: #plasticpollution is indeed everywhere." Read more from PhD researcher, Bonnie Hamilton, PhD on plastic pollution in the Canadian #Arctic. ow.ly/B65650Ag0La



PhD thesis on Arctic char thermal biology is online! dx.doi.org/10.14288/1.039… Huge thx to the community of Cambridge Bay, Jean-Sébastien Moore Les Harris UBC Zoology PolarKnowledgeCanada Fisheries and Oceans ACUNS - AUCEN Excited for the next chapter UNB Saint John with Ben Speers-Roesch #fishsci #arctic

Nice job Matt Gilbert! His PhD work recently featured in a Nunatsiaq News article highlighting his work on Arctic char thermal limits and performance. Looking forward to the next stage. Jean-Sébastien Moore Ben Speers-Roesch


The first of two papers on the thermal acclimation potential of Arctic char is now out! This one was done at UBC Zoology and is focused on cardiac heat tolerance in the context of a rapidly warming Arctic. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @FishSciBot #arcticscience #fishsci


New lab paper: telemetry data used in mark recapture models to study impacts of var in sea ice melt date on Arctic Char survival - work by Isabeau Caza-Allard for her undergrad thesis in collab w M. Mazerolle Les Harris & many others IBIS-ULAVAL Sciences et génie – Université Laval CentreEtudesNord RAQ - Actualité

Excited to have our recent field study out & on the cover of Journal of Experimental Biology ! We demonstrate that warm acclimation of heart rate and temperature tolerance can occur rapidly in wild migrating Arctic char. Done w/ a great team: @middletonella6 Ben Speers-Roesch Jean-Sébastien Moore Les Harris


Amazing opportunity to study one of the coolest fishes on the planet, with an amazing group Jean-Sébastien Moore Matt Gilbert Bonnie Hamilton, PhD Nathan B Furey and in the wonderful community of Cambridge Bay. Fun/novel data to explore and freedom to design multi-year studies. Check out the ad!
