Hi everyone, I'm a MSc student in the Kidd Lab and I'm studying whether a hungry little caterpillar called the spruce budworm affects mercury cycling in stream food webs. #LaurentianPrarieResearch @LaurentianSETAC (1/)

Insect defoliation is a widespread cause of forest disturbance in Canada, and it has the potential to alter terrestrial carbon contributions to stream consumers and thus affect stream ecosystems....

I'm so glad I got to participate as an instructor for the FREED Toronto Zoo event! .I loved running my workshop on benthic macroinvertebrates and it was very meaningful to be a part an event geared towards BIPOC students.
We hosted our first event of the year from May 12th-14th at @thetorontozoo and had an amazing time with numerous workshops! .All photo credits go to Blue M. Betül .To learn more about FREED, go to .💚 .#fieldwork #ecologyjobs #student #edi #equity #bipoc

Happy to announce that I finished my thesis - 2 years, 12 watersheds, and a few hundred samples later. Glad I got to wrap this up at the end of this year and I'm excited to start off the new year on a high note!

Is it common knowledge that the log() function in R uses the natural log, not log base 10?!?.Asking for a friend (a "friend" who might have spent an afternoon frantically calculating slopes).

This week I finished all my Msc. labwork after analyzing my final sample for methylmercury! All it took was dozens of hours on the TTC, a whole jar of instant coffee, and one read-through of the Silmarillion. Excited to explore my 300+ data points 🥳🥳.
