Hey fish, popgen conservation science people, out now in Biological Conservation from @k_gatesy and @molecolflinders: Connecting the dots: Applying multispecies connectivity in marine park network planning. Link to the paper in first comment.

Interested in generating reliable genetic effective size estimates for abundant, iteroparous fisheries species? Ne and Nb estimates for Australasian snapper were most accurate using genotypes for >200 fish from a single cohort. @molecolflinders doi.org/10.1111/eva.13758

The field of molecular ecology + Canadian science have lost a giant today. Louis Bernatchez inspired many and was a tireless supporter of 100s of young researchers over 4 decades of his highly distinguished career. Thanks for being such a great academic dad to many of us Louis

the most powerful climate report of the decade was published on monday, after 195 governments fought over the words in its summary for policymakers, and the only media allowed in the room just published its account of who lobbied for what 1/
