Because young-of-year (YOY; age-0) are vulnerable to overwinter mortality, fishes invading higher latitudes could encounter colder conditions that impose population bottlenecks, but warming under climate change could reduce such restrictions. To examine how populations might respond to anticipated warming and whether they could establish, we developed a life-history model, integrating four published empirical relationships (da...

The Black Array of Broadband Absolute Radiometers Earth Radiation Imager (BABAR-ERI) is a small, adaptable nadir-pointed pushbroom imager to measure Earth-leaving broadband radiance from 0.3 µm to 100 µm with higher information content than is currently measured by reducing radiometric uncertainty and enabling cloud-resolving spatial resolution. The three-instrument BABAR-ERI suite fits a 12U CubeSat form factor and contains c...

Bighead Carp currently threatens to invade the Laurentian Great Lakes from the Mississippi River, but the novel climatic conditions it will encounter by expanding northwards could affect its population performance. Bighead Carp in colder climates exhibits slower growth and matures later, with later maturation typically leading to larger adult size and increased fecundity and survival. Accordingly, the life-history strategies o...
