10,000 (guppy) lifetimes in a single figure.
(click to open for full effect)
This plot shows the capture history of 10,000 #guppies in one of our #LongTermEcology study populations in Trinidad, part of #TheGuppyProject
Each of these fish were caught, given a unique identifying tag / ID'd, measured, weighed, photographed, sampled for DNA, then released back where we found them.

I never got round to writing an #introduction, so here goes:
I am a #postdoc on #TheGuppyProject, which is a #LongTermStudy looking at stream ecosystems in Trinidad.
I am interested in #EvolutionaryEcology, in particular #LifeHistories and fluctuating dynamics.
I use field data, mescosm experiments, and models to try to understand ecological and evolutionary dynamics in the wild.
