1/2 🌿🐟=💥New paper alert! Just published my latest (https://t.co/gT8yvr7qKH) w/ the amazing @AllgeierLab! 🎉 Turns out, seagrass love fish pee. It's a goldmine of nutrients that boost their growth, even under fishing pressure & human nutrient influence.

Michigan News: Caribbean seagrasses provide services worth $255B annually, including vast carbon storage. The findings show that seagrass ecosystems deserve to be at the forefront of the global conservation agenda. @AllgeierLab #EEB #conservation #seagrass https://t.co/4TVwiT88Je

Jake and Katrina spent the last few weeks catching, tagging, and collecting fin clips from fish in Abaco.

Fun fact - grunt fin clips look like sushi grass! 🍣

Thank you @BahaNick for joining in our virtual marine research course for Bahamian high school students. We all enjoyed learning about the major fisheries in The Bahamas! 🦞

[University of Michigan @UMich]

Nate Sanders, @UMichEEB professor, co-authored a study examining how coral bleaching leaves some species of reef fish struggling to identify and respond appropriately to competitors. https://t.co/bxxte99xab

We are still accepting applications for a postdoc position in the lab! Details in the link below 👇

[Coastal Ecology and Conservation Lab @AllgeierLab]

We have a postdoc position opening in the lab to develop ecosystem-scale models that integrate bioenergetics, nutrient dynamics, and consumer movement to predict ecosystem production in tropical coastal ecosystems. Please share!
