We've reached a record 800 members! Beating the previous record set in 2014. We're thrilled that the FSBI is thriving, along with our mission to support scientific activity in fish & fisheries science through charitable activities. Thanks to our members for their vital support!

Tara Marshall at #WFC2024 doing a fantastic job introducing the ⁦fsbi⁩ and other #fisheries societies in the wcfs.fisheries.org

Back at SCENE for some lab work (also catching up with friends Phoebe). Here are some very characteristic features of the iconic University of Glasgow field station

Thanks to Jessica Rodger and Chris Conroy from Atlantic Salmon Trust for presenting their studies on #Migration of #salmon and the restoration of its #ecosystem !

Some very windswept delegates on top of the Orrin Dam today. Thanks to Ross Glover and Sunny Bradbury for a brilliant excursion! #NoWPaS2024

Very excited to have a new paper from myself, Arne Jacobs, Colin Bean, Colin Adams, Kathryn R Elmer published in Molecular Ecology (@molecology) investigating the genomic underpinnings of head and body shape across Arctic charr ecomorph pairs! (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…)

Colin Adams kicks off the #physiology session with an interesting talk on #migration in #salmonids ! 🐟

Working with fisheries folk from across the sector today to evaluate methodologies for sampling fish populations in Scottish freshwater lochs 👍

How do we incorporate hidden intraspecific diversity into conservation think? - a review paper Colin Bean J. Peter Koene SCENE

Check out our new paper assessing the migration of Atl. salmon smolts migrating from 12 rivers 🇬🇧🇮🇪 through coastal zones around the Irish Sea onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jf… fsbi SeaMonitor

🚨 New Paper

Using PIT telemetry, we show here that wild sexually mature male Atlantic salmon parr can smolt and migrate to see the following spring despite the high energy demand to undergo both developmental processes within a 12 month period.

New pre-print available (authorea.com/users/671584/a…) from myself, Arne Jacobs, Colin Bean, Colin Adams and Kathryn R Elmer. We looked into the genomic underpinnings of morphological differences between Arctic charr ecomorphs and whether they are shared across replicates

Does the emergence of intraspecific ecotypes in northern lake fish follow a common pattern? Well yes and no! Find out more in this meta-analysis paper led by Stephanie Blain onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… Dolph Schluter louise chavarie SCENE
