Almost a month ago I returned from an amazing field trip to the Isles of Scilly 🌊 Studying L. hyperborea at its southern UK range was a privilege. Big thanks to @hjncatherall.bsky.social and @pippajmoore.bsky.social for such a great experience! #KelpForests #MarineBiology #Fieldwork #UKScience

Nice to finally meet @bd-stew.bsky.social IRL at the World premiere of Oceans with David Attenborough where Bryce got credits on the film and I gave a little advice on kelp in the accompanying book.

Hi BlueSky! I’m Rodrigo, a Chilean marine biologist doing my PhD in the UK with @pippajmoore.bsky.social @iapetusdtp.bsky.social @newcastleuni.bsky.social and @naturalengland.bsky.social. My research explores novel urchin barrens in the UK kelp forests — why they happen and how resilient they are 🌿🧪

A trip to the field is a rare treat recently, but a lovely day in the field helping PhD students with testing kelp restoration techniques on exposed coasts and the effects of topography on kelp restoration success @robynmastinwynn.bsky.social @newcastleuni.bsky.social

Summertime marine heatwaves (MHWs) in 2023/2024 were unprecedented and had wide-ranging biological, physical and societal impacts. Need to develop better response plans and adaptation/intervention approaches as MHWs intensify under climate change. New ms in Nat CC: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I just checked the 100 most recent job ads on various marine biology Facebook groups and jobs boards. 2 involve SCUBA diving. The overwhelming majority of marine biology jobs do not involve SCUBA diving at all. Which means you can follow your dreams even if you medically can't SCUBA dive!
