Eager to share that my latest book is out: The Science of Writing: rb.gy/fb3cj
This book is for anyone curious about what goes into scientific writing and how to navigate the publishing process.
Best part: 12 custom illustrations by @rushdhill
@mountain_goats Thank you for coming to Baton Rouge. And thank you for the reference to August '74 Seastones. Did not see that coming...
New @ScientificData paper out sharing 30 years worth of CO2 in US flowing waters. >750K CO2 estimates (linked to @USGS NHD) for your modeling needs: rdcu.be/c3a8N

Chuffed to arrive at my desk and find this new book arrived in the mail. Congrats to Stephen Midway, @CalebHasler and Prosanta Chakrabarty for wrestling all the contributors into line! I've provided my perspective on respirometry methodology if anyone's interested :) #fishsci

Deepest of thanks to @SteveVanderkooy, GSMFC, and nearly 100 participants in our Floundering Around symposum this past week.

We found that more shark attacks happen closer to a full moon—although lunar influence on biology/ecology remains an untold story! (w/@Lindsay_French_, George Burgess, David Evans)
