Really excited to share our new @kelprescue paper on bull #kelp and giant #kelp population #genomics.
We identify the genetic structure of these two critical species and investigate the consequence of small population size for genetic health & restoration

Had a great time participating in the DBCA school outreach program aimed at inspiring young minds in WA towards ecology and conservation

Excited to share the Phaeoexplorer paper out today in Cell: Evolutionary genomics of the emergence of brown algae as key components of coastal ecosystems! 🌊 Including the genome of Dictyota dichotoma and many more! doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2024.… #Seaweed
Huge thanks to @ForrestResearch and @uwaoceans for supporting this opportunity to attend #COP29
It has been amazing to see all of the ways that people from all over the world engage with the greatest challenge of all time
At #COP29 in Baku this week, the Oceans Institute was proud to showcase innovative solutions to accelerate decarbonisation and reach net zero targets.
From wave power to offshore renewables and blue carbon credits, we’re driving progress in sustainable energy.

Our OI team have arrived in Baku, Azerbaijan for COP29. These conferences are the world’s only multilateral decision-making forum on climate change that brings together almost every country on Earth. We’re excited to be attending alongside key partners & friends of the Institute
Great thread by lead author of our recent #seaweed #historicalecology paper @pessa_3

🌊1/Seaweed forests worldwide are changing rapidly due to climate change. Western Australia’s forests are dramatic examples of this, but what about the biodiversity hotspot on the south coast? Our latest historical ecology research finds out... 🧵

🌱Seaweed forests of the south coast of Australia contain ~15% of the world's seaweed species 😲 These forests contribute uniquely to temperate reef ecosystem functions onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…, but little is known about how they are responding to climate change...

REVIEW
Impacts of marine heatwaves in coastal ecosystems depend on local environmental conditions
📃 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Why are the impacts of #climatechange so variable? Excited to share our new review paper in @GlobalChangeBio which explores the role of local environmental variation in mediating the impacts of extreme marine heatwaves

Happy to share my first paper!

📢#macroecological sensitivity in the #tropics despite stable short term #temperature ranges. Insightful new work led by @MemorialU Darren Li Shing Hiung & @AmandaEBates tinyurl.com/m6yc76yy
@PNASNexus
Join us at @uwaoceans in beautiful Perth, Australia!
@twernberg and I are looking for PhD students to study #kelp #forests and #climatechange. Applications due July 31! Both domestic and international students are encouraged to apply.
Please share widely :)
Looking for a place to send your manuscript on seaweeds and climate change? We have just lauched a new research topic in FMARS!
Our research topic on the Impacts of Climate Change on Seaweeds has launched. Led by myself, @cohblain @SamStarko @MaggieDJohnson @denisaquatic. If you work in this area, please feel free to submit to Frontiers in Marine Science's Global Change section: frontiersin.org/research-top…

🌿🌿🐠How do we restore marine forests at ecologically-meaningful scales?
In our new article we discuss current challenges and emerging solutions from 25 projects around the world
