Brad Gemmell discusses how changing environmental conditions affect the behaviour and ecology of small marine organisms. Topics include ctenophore predation, diatoms and ocean carbon cycling, and the role of upside-down Cassiopea jellyfish as ecosystem engineers. The conversation connects organismal physiology and movement with broader changes in marine ecosystems.

Alison Derry and Andrew Hendry discuss experiments on rapid evolution in threespine sticklebacks reintroduced to Alaskan lakes. Topics include differences between stickleback ecotypes, consequences for zooplankton evolution, and feedbacks between fish and food webs. The conversation was recorded before a live audience in Soldotna, Alaska.
