Our chapter on #climate change is finally out! This is a #collaborative work involving researchers from institutions in France, Portugal, Spain, USA and Sweden! 👉https://shorturl.at/6SJa6 @noellelucey.bsky.social @uaveiro.bsky.social @inrae-france.bsky.social #ocean #biodiversity

For anyone that likes weird: I found these eyeballs staring up at me from the mouth of an experimental Menhaden. It's a parasitic tongue-eating isopod that chews the fish tongue off and then implants itself to tongue base to feast for free, for life!

Fascinating to find colonies of #coral species thriving on a historically hypoxic reef tolerate severe low oxygen events much better than their counterparts on nearby reefs. Our paper explains the potential for these findings to guide coral conservation efforts. doi.org/10.3390/ocea...

Locally Adapted Coral Species Withstand a 2-Week Hypoxic Event
One approach to improve long-term coral restoration success utilizes naturally stress-tolerant corals from the wild. While the focus has primarily been on thermal stress, low oxygen is a growing threa...

For my first post- a new paper showing how tiny blips of nightly low oxygen - just 6 hours at a time- may have the potential to shape coral reef communities, leading to less diverse, lawn-like states! doi.org/10.1111/gcb....

Coral Community Composition Linked to Hypoxia Exposure
Written Summary: Warming and decreasing oxygen physiologically stress tropical corals, but evidence of how these stressors impact coral community composition remain circumstantial. We find the durati....
