#AquaticEcology folks: what aquatic ecology field methods did you learn as an undergrad? What did you NOT learn and wish you did? This can be technical skills (e.g. benthic sampling) or other skills (e.g. project management) required for field work. Please RT, comment, or DM!

A divergence from my usual eco feed to plug this new piece by my dear friend Jennie Geleff. Why culture is just as important as infrastructure to creating a more bike-able GTA. Ps. I like to take partial credit for getting her biking 💁‍♀️🚴‍♀️ #ActiveTransport cleanairpartnership.org/what-if-cultur…
