Ph.D. Candidate Spencer Tassone selected to attend symposia for top new researchers in ecological oceanography and limnology

Spencer Tassone was selected to attend the Ecological Dissertations in the Aquatic Sciences (Eco-DAS; pronounced eco-days) symposia this coming March in Honolulu, HI. This symposia is funded by the National Science Foundation and the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography; and seeks to bridge interdisciplinary gaps in aquatic ecology. Key elements of the symposia include:

In the News - Spencer Tassone quoted in Chesapeake Bay Journal on Ecological Implications of Increasing Riverine Heatwaves

The Chesapeake Bay Journal wrote a story (linked here) about a recent Chesapeake Bay Program - Scientific and Technical Advisory Committee (STAC) report entitled Rising Watershed and Bay Temperatures - Ecological Implications and Management Responses.

New paper by Ph.D. candidate Yuan Li and Assistant Professor Ajay Limaye tests predictions for river migration

A new open-access paper focusing on evaluating predictions for the migration of meandering rivers has been published in Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface. A model testing framework was developed to compare field observations and model predictions for channel migration of seven rivers from the Amazon Basin and 103 rivers in the continental US. Results of this study provide a pathway to further improve models for channel migration.
