James Cook University deep water research uncovers Coral Sea reef life abc.net.au/news/2023-08-15/j… via @ABCaustralia @jcu @BlueRov

The Coral Sea lies next to the Great Barrier Reef. Why don't we know more about it?

Australian scientists have found "incredibly high coral cover" in deeper sections of the Coral Sea relatively undisturbed by fishing and sedimentary run-off.

The movement of water is important for all coral reefs but #hydrodynamics are particularly strong and influential for reef fishes on unique habitats like #pinnacles and #seamounts New research in @aslo_org @dave_hambright @WalindiResort @mahonianadari doi.org/10.1002/lno.12431

@GFGalbraith Gemma teaching the next gen of Phd students, managers, communicators et al, all about awesome science on coral reef pinnacles. How do we design our surveys and solve the logistical challenges? #SuperstarsofSTEM #WomenInScience #WomenInScienceDay @jcu @JCUOIRS

Happy #WomenInScienceDay we are teaching and learning sampling designs and statistics the best way we can - on the reef!! @jcu @enviro_sci @JCUOIRS @WomenSciAUST

#ValentineASpecies #ScienceValentines Not all reefs are shallow, Some live in low light, #Mesophotic reefs are awesome, Even though they're out of sight! Thanks to @wildlifemeg for helping with this!
