New paper out of our group (@CTELab) investigating fatty acids of larval Dungeness crab in different ocean conditions/years. Led by Dr. Minna Hiltunen during her visiting postdoc @UO_OIMB: https://t.co/inPc1imjco

This past weekend OIMB had our 100 year anniversary party! Past graduates and professors of our program came from far and wide to celebrate and remember the friends we made and memories, which last longer than lifetimes. ❤️

New paper out from our group (@CTELab ) by Dr. @RossWhippo quantifying the effects of the chemical cues of Pycnopodia on purple urchin grazing rates (starved vs fed) in @ESAEcosphere. Check it out! Thanks to @NSF, @nature_org, @MarineBiol_FHL for funding! https://t.co/Uvz81Bkx69

New research out of CTELab out in MEPS! Including past OIMB PhD student @RossWhippo and past postdocs @jbschram and @h2_Lo! What a trip this was.

The #WesternAntarcticPeninsula has a spatial gradient of increased #macroalgae with declining #IceCover. @awegalloway et al. asked if #FattyAcid trophic biomarkers of seaweeds and consumers differed across this large-scale ice gradient

OIMB is hiring for a 2-yr part time temporary instructor to ​teach a 3-6 credit course in each of three terms at OIMB, including Biology of Fishes, Biological Oceanography, and one other course that fits into the curriculum. Reviews start 11-Dec. Full ad: https://t.co/KgZDQZ2zRP

Check out this article about exciting new work by ORKA members Dr. Aaron Galloway @awegalloway and Dr. Sarah Gravem @sarahgravem! The Missing 24-Limbed Animals That Could Help Rescue the Ocean’s Forest - ORKA supports this promising strategy! https://t.co/16EXhx8aHw

[Friday Harbor Labs @MarineBiol_FHL]

Much of the research by @awegalloway in this article was done at FHL! Nice work, Aaron. https://t.co/cuhGMe0yzL

Whaaaat? @CTELab research also referred to in the @washingtonpost this week!!

Hey-yaaaa! @CTELab research featured in the @nytimes this week!!

Our paper on Pycnopodia #SunflowerSeaStar consumption of purple sea urchins is featured in @nytimes today! Coauthors @sarahgravem @DanielKOkamoto and others from @uoregon @OregonState @Conserve_CA @floridastate @UW #PycoNomNom https://t.co/ZP8Y55E0iq https://t.co/dXjPsBWK2m

@undrwatercarter Hi Carter! Cool looking paper. Congrats! The journal doesn't show your contact email on the paper page and I can't download it, can you send a pdf of the article to [email protected]? Thanks!

[Aaron W. E. Galloway, Ph.D. @awegalloway]

A picture says 10,000 words? 👀 (This is the full word count of our new paper on Pycnopodia predation on purple sea urchins). Epic photos by Dr. Lynn Lee, showing the halo effects of the 'landscape of fear' that the #SunflowerSeaStar creates for urchins. https://t.co/dXjPsBWK2m

[Aaron W. E. Galloway, Ph.D. @awegalloway]

My friends, let's get back to what twitter is really here for: the fun, geeky stuff behind the science, the LOLs, the crying laughing cat emogis 😹..... I think y'all need to know the names of the Pycnopodia in our experiment. (from the supplemental files) https://t.co/dXjPsBWK2m

[Dr. Sarah Gravem @sarahgravem]

Want to know what’s happening in this rad video? We measured predation by #sunflowerseastars on urchins, and used a model to show that sea star declines, urchin increases and kelp declines are linked! https://t.co/Wuc8k2xGXc

[Dr. Sarah Gravem @sarahgravem]

And, for my favorite paper I’ve published so far 🥁🥁🥁 we measured predation of #sunflowerseastars on sea urchins and found that they eat them fast enough that they are strong top predators that likely prevent urchin barrens! And they chow down on starved urchins from barrens!

[Aaron W. E. Galloway, Ph.D. @awegalloway]

We have a new study on Pycnopodia predation on purple sea urchins! Our lab experiment and model finds that the recovery of #SunflowerSeaStars will be key in #kelp forest restoration. w/ @sarahgravem @DanielKOkamoto et al, @uoregon @OregonState @Conserve_CA

1/2 Did you know that forests are found in oceans too? In Gwaii Haanas, kelp forests were disappearing, leaving less habitat for many species – but now, the tide 🌊 is turning.

Look at these wonderful science goofballs! Thanks ⁦@CTELab⁩ for coming all the way to Oxnard and rocking #WSN2022 this year! (This is a GIF series of photos of 7 lab members all dressed up in silly costumes, going full ham, and making fun faces)

[Aaron W. E. Galloway, Ph.D. @awegalloway]

Amazing news!!! @CTELab PhD student @RhodalynTetteh just won an honorable mention award for best student lighting talk at #WSN2022!! For her project with @theRedShrimp @A_K_Sullivan and I on urchin shredding of plastic ropes and creation of micro-plastics. Congrats Rhoda!
