If you are keen on learning about remote sensing methods for ecohydraulics this has the ingredients to be a pretty neat webinar. Some pretty topnotch presenters (excluding myself of course ha). @UNBsalmon @UNBForEM @TLinnans

This image was taken on a day when the river reached an insanely warm 31.5 °C. 2 papers to be submitted in the next weeks = neat findings on the spatial distribution of salmonids in thermal refuges and temperatures that induce thermal aggs. Keep an eye out @TLinnans @RAllenCurry

My mates Ph.D. defense is about to kick off. Having spent 5 years with him as an office mate, I hope he fails haha. Just messing. You'll smash it @Nojani @TLinnans

Even more awesome, the aggregation is split into two groups. Where the upstream group conceptually provides a bio-derived hydraulic refuge for the downstream group (see figure below). I find these fish stories fascinating

During normal temperature conditions adults exclusively selected for boulder habitats, with depth, velocity and Froude number values = 1.2 m, 0.3 m/s, and 0.08, respectively (detailed in the figures below) Recirculating currents induced by these hydraulics = Goldilocks zones

Our attempt at examining temperature and hydraulic controls on habitat use by adult Atlantic salmon during a warm summer has just been accepted! Coupling ADCP, thermal infrared and RGB sensor data we modelled river temperature/hydraulic heterogeneity and found some 'cool' stuff

We got @CormierJoseph on his first Atlantic salmon this morning in gods country - the Miramichi. Water bumped, temperatures ~15 °C, half a dozen others on the river. Lovely to see. Bright fish for Joe. Took a drowned green grasshopper!?!?!?!

Pretty pumped to be looking at nature in hyperspectral this summer. 281 spectral bands of adventures! @RAllenCurry @UNBsalmon @TLinnans @cri
