You can follow Boeier's movement since her rescue, rehabilitation, and release on the #TAMUG GCSTR Instagram account: www.instagram.com/gulfcenterfo... She's currently exploring Corpus Christi Bay, TX. @tamu.bsky.social #SeaAggies

Presented some emerging work linking wetland resilience to plant diversity at the 2024 Society of Wetland Scientists 2024 meeting this week in Taipei, Taiwan. Bottom line: Diversity boosts recovery from freeze damage in the mangrove-marsh ecotone on the Texas coast.

Title slide from a presentation titled "Diversity confers resilience following repeated extreme events in the mangrove-marsh ecotone". Background image shows areas of live and dead black mangroves.

What's going on here? In the middle of a mangrove stand that was badly damaged by a cold snap in 2021, marsh and mangrove plants are starting to recover. Why here, and not elsewhere? Much of the area is still a graveyard of dead mangroves. 🧪🌎

What a beautiful day to study long-term salt marsh restoration success in Galveston Bay!

Hi, I'm Anna, and I'm a coastal wetlands ecologist working in the Gulf of Mexico. I study restoration and human impacts in salt marsh, mangrove, and seagrass habitats. Probably (definitely) the muddiest professor at TAMUG!

Enjoyed meeting with a great group of colleagues at a thought-provoking session on coastal #wetland restoration in areas vulnerable to drought conditions #SER2023
