First leg of the ICONA-PNG expedition at the CO2 vents in Ambitle Island, Tutum Bay. A great team on board the R/V Antea. Sadly, warming has already affected the reef from my last cruise in 2019 but an amazing reef is still there. @icona_research @twofrontiers @UMREntropie

Interested in a PhD understanding the community dynamics of hard and soft corals in Okinwawa reefs with @JDReimer @EGMitchell @DrManica using newly methodologies for the analyses of community ecology & 3D model reconstruction? zoo.cam.ac.uk/2025-26-projec…

It was a pleasure to help bring Wunambal language names to these newly described species of sponge-associated zooanthids. Congratulations to Javier, the entire int. authorship team & #WunambalGaambera people @wamuseum @CurtinEandA #coralCOREgroup #uunguulife #culture_science
🌊#UWA researchers delved into museum collections and discovered 6 new species of zoantharian and 3 have been given language names by Wunambal Gaambera Traditional Owners! 🔬@deepseauwa @UWAresearch @CurtinUni @uwaoceans @BiolSci_UWA @wamuseum

Despite a global IT outage, Category 4 typhoon, and several false starts, I was thankful to get back to Iriomote-jima, Japan, working with colleagues @LabMise @LabNaruse to deploy @InsideNatGeo supported deep sea cameras and @wilderlab supported #eDNA on #mesophotic coral reefs.

While our primary focus of the mission was to audit biodiversity across the marine “Tree of Life” in these rarely surveyed mesophotic ecosystems, we were not expecting to see such extensive coral bleaching due to elevated water temperatures well below 50 metres depth!!! 😟

- I got to spend some time with colleagues/friends from my Japanese days that I had not seen in almost 2 years, among which my mentor @JDReimer, and other @LabMisemembers, Fabian Gösser and @ayakapaull.

On our 4th day on board the R/V KAIMEI, with state of the art facilities (not to mention great food 😉). The search for deep-sea antipatharians and zoantharians in the SE Japan continues! 🪸

Fantastic to see this come out! Tons of prep work and the installation needed the whole lab. So, very happy it ended up in JAE :)
🐠🚨New Paper Alert🚨🐠
Thrilled to have my 4th PhD chapter published in @JAppliedEcology!!
We tested the effects of habitat #complexity on #fish diversity through #ecoengineering of #seawalls.

Tomorrow is Taxonomist Appreciation Day, and what better way to celebrate biodiversity and the people that help uncover it by doing fieldwork!

Want to study a PhD in coral demographics with me @LeedsEcoEvo ? Do life histories differ between tropical and marginal reefs? Which corals are more resilient? Looking for UK candidates (Leeds DS) or funded international candidates! @JoshAFirth @Rob_SalGo
