The USDA postdoc fellowship is back! If you're interested in studying eutrophication issues in working lands, let's write a proposal together. Check my lab webpage for how to get in touch (ecostoich.weebly.com/join.html).
Check out our new paper, led by @abagaelpruitt.bsky.social, quantifying whole stream/river denitrification rates in an ag river and its tributary across seasons. Abagael did a great job leading this work and its a really great application of the open-channel N2 method! dx.doi.org/10.1029/2025...

New paper in collab with Jason Taylor and Thad Scott in ES&T highlighting the role of N in controlling eutrophic conditions in experimental musicians. Implications for water quality in shallow lakes!

The people whipping up panics about "academic freedom" rarely speak up when academic freedom is actually imperiled.
This is absolutely chilling.
As usual, insects matter - alot!
New winter limnology paper by Ozersky, et al. examining how changing winters will differ across latitudes, finding that the light climate of high latitude lakes is much more sensitive to shifting winter conditions than that of lower latitude lakes. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Check out our new WI Fishing Finder. Public access, boat ramps, regulations, habitat, stocking histories, consumption advisories and more, all in one map. We can’t find the fish for you, but we can help you decide where to give it a shot dnrmaps.wi.gov/H5/?viewer=WFF

The lab group of Prof. Melissa Bop, Penn State University, is doing a research study on cargo bike users in North America. If you are a cargo bike user and have a minute to take the survey they’d love to hear from you: pennstate.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Had a blast presenting LTRM data to the public, students, and other managers today. Really fun to tell the story of Pool 8! Also learned a ton about fish movement, especially in high water conditions.

This week began our 2-week winter #waterquality monitoring season. We're thankful for our partners at the Chautauqua National Wildlife Refuge and use of their airboat while ours is in the shop. Ice thickness on Tuesday was still around 8 inches in most places, though quickly thawing. #UMRR
Attention all limnologists! We recently published a paper where we tracked changes in study duration of lakes and reservoirs through time. There are plenty short-duration papers. But long term studies are getting longer!

Found a signed copy at a local bookstore and couldn’t put it down! Loved it! Keep putting those miles in!
Can you use cameras to estimate fish densities under the ice? Some cool data (and videos) from Ben Patschull on the river!

Would love to be added!
