I was quite confident on my knowledge of marine biodiversity in my area (I have a PhD in marine biology after all). But today I learn about Paromola cuvieri, one of the largest crab species of the Northeast Atlantic, that uses its last pair of legs to carry live specimens of sponges and corals 🦑 🌊

NEW: 2024 has just been confirmed as the warmest year on record, and the first to breach the 1.5C threshold. We used a ridgeline (Joy Division inspired) chart to visualise daily temperature anomalies since 1940. 2024 clearly stands out with 100% of its days above 1.3C and 75% above 1.5C.

A trophic cascade of 🦦&🦀: "Sea otters ate multiple crab species, allowing snails, which crabs eat, to thrive. The snails then ate more algae that had blocked sunlight from reaching the sea grass. More sea grass provided protection for young fish and food for migratory birds."🧪🦑🎁 wapo.st/4gUouFX

Who would’ve thought MPAs were the way to go for biodiversity AND fisheries? Well we do. And that’s why we need to change the situation in Iceland. MPAs currently cover 0.07% of Iceland’s EEZ. We are on a mission to get this number up to AT LEAST 30% 🌊🌍🇮🇸 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Science takes time - a lot of time. Time that is more and more difficult to make available because of increased workloads. Time that exceeds the temporary contracts of postdocs and PhDs. I'll illustrate this using our paper published in Nature yesterday. 🧵 (1/x) www.nature.com/articles/s41...
