Today’s Flashback Friday highlights a FISHBIO Science Explained graphic, created to detail and visualize the processes of acoustic telemetry, and how it is used to track fish! Two of the […]
Without natural predators to keep their populations in check, non-native invasive species can be detrimental to an ecosystem. These invaders often outcompete native species for key resources like food and space, allowing them to dominate landscapes. This disruption can trigger cascading changes in the food chain, ultimately reducing biodiversity and destabilizing delicate ecological balances. Small invasive species can often go unnoticed until their populations are well-established, when eradication becomes extremely difficult or even impossible.
Today’s Flashback Friday covers the past, present and future of the microplastics invasion. Researchers tested museum fish archives, and found the tiny toxic particles began showing up in fish specimens […]
