Not a bad place to spend a few days. In Rome working on how to help stakeholders find a path of sustainable global inland fisheries.

Students & ECRs: If you receive a request for a paper to cover a "shortfall" in an obscure journal and the email is filled with awkward/nonsensical phrases (see below), then it's from a predatory publisher. Both your scholarly reputation & your bank account will suffer if you fulfill their request.

"A study of federally funded research projects in the United States estimated that principal investigators spend on average about 45% of their time on administrative activities related to applying for and managing projects rather than conducting active research"

Finally made the jump over here from that other app - excited to reconnect with the science/fish social media world! For those that don't know me, I'm an assistant professor at UT-Knoxville interested in all things fish movement & fisheries management. #fisheries #fishsci #telemetry

Water-food-climate-health interconnections mean that a change in rice growing season can lead to increased deaths from smog in cities in India. A key theme of the upcoming IPBES #nexusassessment is how to anticipate and manage these interdependencies. Up for adoption next month!

How a change in rice farming unexpectedly made India’s air so much worse
No one anticipated that an initiative to save groundwater by delaying the annual rice season would aggravate northern India’s already miserable air pollution.
