Yesterday marked my last day as a Sentinels of Change postdoc with @hakai.org and @ubcbotany.bsky.social on Quadra Island. Looking forward to the next chapter!

Happy to announce our ❗recent OA publication❗ in Ecography, selected as Editor’s Choice! We revisited 34 kelp forest sites to assess climate-driven shifts in kelp structure and distribution. Overall, warm-temperate kelps are increasing, while some cold-temperate species are in decline. vist.ly/55kj2

Glad to have spent some time with fellow postdocs and #SentinelsOfChange folks at the #CSEE in Toronto, presenting some results of my kelp microbiome work and making new connections 🌊🌱🦠 #CSEE2026

Check it out: Our Communications Team made an amazing video about the Quadra Island Bioblitz that we ran last year. It’s a really nice overview of how and why we do bioblitzes... youtu.be/1Jq7LHuBDN4?...

It's been hard for early career biologists looking for postdocs, so I created a Google Sheet where we can all compile fellowships/job boards/postdoc opportunities in one place. PLEASE SHARE WIDELY! If you're a PI looking for postdocs, you can add to the 4th tab! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Heat exposure on Western Australian coral reefs is literally off the charts. 24 Degree Heating Weeks now at Ningaloo - the highest ever recorded. 6-8 DHW is lethal for most branching corals. >20 is catastrophic. coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/product/vs/m...

Although NOAA's page on atmospheric CO2 levels has vanished, you can still get this vital information from Ralph Keeling's team at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego keelingcurve.ucsd.edu Please follow bsky.app/profile/keel... for updates and share Don't let science be hidden
A graph of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations at the Mauna Loa observatory, Hawaii, from 1958 to 4th February 2025. It shows carbon dioxide levels rising at an accelerating rate over the decades. This is known to be due to emissions of carbon dioxide from human activity, mainly fossil fuel burning but also deforestation. The first CO2 concentration value in March 1958 was 315 parts per million (ppm). The latest daily value is 426 ppm. The graph also shows a seasonal cycle of a few ppm within each year, which is known to be linked to the growing season in the northern hemisphere causing a temporary uptake of carbon in spring and summer and release in autumn. The graph is produced routinely by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego.

Lucky to live on the other side of the border - this is just nuts. So much work of pationate scientists going downhill, funding cuts and layoffs in so many departments and agencies all around the country... We need science!

Check out my new pre-print about a novel #kelp disease! This research includes a kelp-grower survey (still live). 57% of respondents have seen pink-spot disease on their spools. One bacteria is associated with pink spots, a target for future research. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #MarineLife
Spools with visible pink spots.

Hello🦋 Hoping for a nice platform to exchange science again. I'm a #kelp ecologist, finished my PhD last year on climate change impacts on kelp forests (🇬🇧 @thembauk.bsky.social, @dansmale1.bsky.social) & work now on microbes (🇨🇦 @ubcbotany.bsky.social, @hakaiinstitute.bsky.social).Happy kelpy times🌊🌱
