488 species were recorded at Costa Rica’s methane seeps - the highest biodiversity count ever recorded at a single cold seep or hydrothermal vent!

@Scripps_Ocean @SchmidtOcean exploration highlights the incredible biodiversity of the deep sea. https://t.co/2BGPZXiV7F

In the 20 years since the term “microplastics” was first coined, a rapidly growing body of research has consistently shown how pervasive and problematic the pollutants have become.

A new #ScienceReview provides an overview of this research and the progress made in understanding #microplastics. https://t.co/QqcqlwDD9Z

[Prof. Richard C Thompson OBE FRS @ProfRThompson]

20 yrs after my 1st paper on microplastics, the science is clear microplastics are now widely distributed across the planet, causing harm & contaminating the food we eat the water we drink & the air we breathe. It’s time to change the way we design use and dispose of plastics!

Trophic ecologists who work with stable isotopes I bring you a new pkg, {nichetools} - a complementary package to {SIBER} and {nicheROVER} that allows you to work with data objects created by either pkg. Check it out!

#Templeuniversity biology PhD grads 2024. We did it!! #cstgrad24 #tugrad24

[Otis Brunner @7SeasofScience]

I'm very excited to announce the publication of a highly collaborative and cross disciplinary paper led by @Deep_CDR .

This is the first genomic connectivity study on vent meiofauna with important implication for deep-sea mining

Thank you @SigmaXiSociety!

[SigmaXi @SigmaXiSociety]

#FacesofGIAR — PhD student @AprilStabbins received a #GIAR award in 2020 to study how coral species interact with methane seeps in the deep sea.

#DidYouKnow? If you are a Sigma Xi student member, you are now eligible for higher grant amounts through our Grants in Aid of Research (#GIAR) program? — up to $5K for #gradstudent members and up to $2K for #undergrad members! Non-members are still welcome to apply for grants up to $1K.

Appalling that Temple would retaliate against @TUGSA_6290 workers for pushing for better benefits and working conditions.

Awesome artist and explorer Lily Simonson just published a Choose Your Own Adventure book based on her time in Antarctica. It's called "Antarctica!" it's about Antarctica, it's set in Antarctica, and YES, there are zombie penguins! https://t.co/qxCNssNiTz
