Smile the way @AJJohnson1607 does when he's monitoring #eelgrass. VASG supported & grad of @VIMS_News, Johnson went on to attend @vanderbiltlaw. Stay tuned for an article on Johnson's research on submerged aquatic vegetation. View photos from his fieldwork:https://t.co/BsmVXqV6ed
I am honored to have worked with such kind, intelligent, and dedicated people. I will miss you all! I am excited for my next step, but am certain I will keep in touch!
After 7 years and 2 degrees, our very own Dr. @AJJohnson1607 is heading to @vanderbiltlaw! We're sad to see him go, but can't wait to see what he'll do next. We know his future is bright! #seagrass@VIMS_News
Do you like #mud, #nitrogen, and colored pens? I'm looking for a technician to join my lab @UFTropical. This is a state-funded position with full benefits. https://t.co/tgaOTEdNfA
Ira Flatow of @scifri recently interviewed @VIMS_News sea-level expert Derek Loftis about #CatchTheKing and the importance of local governments adopting #CoastalResiliency measures. The segment begins around 16:30 — https://t.co/Ho7tTLKU0W
#SAV field season is in full swing at #CBNERR@VIMS_News. Early signs of #eelgrass recovery after a die-off event last year in the York River #ChesapeakeBay. With very few adult plants surviving, these beds are recovering via seedlings.
“In 20 years, we’ve done something that no one has ever seen before,” said Prof. Robert Orth of @VIMS_News about the effort to restore 9,000 acres of seagrass along VA’s Atlantic coast. Read more about this unprecedented environmental improvement project: https://t.co/CFAflOQTqj
Do you need to make a science poster? Watch this! Seriously. Watch. This. Rethinking scientific posters with #UX#design; mad props on disrupting the system @mikemorrison. Also, you had me at, "and that's if you showed up on time, which you didn't" https://t.co/JNxhmh0UgW
Study begun as @vims_news class project confirms and ranks #nursery value of #coastal#habitats, findings will help resource managers with difficult #conservation decisions: https://t.co/nspVJRDskd
VASG aims to maintain #sustainable and thriving commercial and recreational #fisheries and through #research. Read about Jingwei Song, a VASG Grad Research Fellow, who studies how northern #speckledtrout respond to changes in temperature. https://t.co/wxD0Ps4uj3
#FBF - A series of 30-second commercials by @VIMS_News called #BayWatch were aired on #Virginia TV stations in the late 1990s. Hosted by Dr. Kirk Havens of VIMS' Center for Coastal Resources Management, this particular installment profiles a #DelMarVa staple - the #HorseshoeCrab!
Unlike seaweed, #seagrasses have true roots, and a transport system enabling them to move nutrients and sugars between their roots, rhizomes and leaves. The bright green leaves create the structure that develops into dense meadows under the sea. #Seagrass#Education#Awareness
