The first aerial orthomosaics from the northern GBR during the 2024 mass coral bleaching event are up online:

Images are open-source to encourage resurveys and time series analysis of > 1 million georeferenced bleached corals (1/n)
Check out the latest preprint from my Master's thesis! We found that seasonal coral acclimation is most likely supported by phenotypic plasticity of single Symbiodiniaceae cells. Critiques welcome 🤙

We're looking for a PhD student to study coral community dynamics in isolated reefs in New Caledonia in the context of ocean warming at IRD Nouméa, with #MohsenKayal and @HoulbrequeFanny@UMREntropie apply until November30, details here 👉 https://t.co/S9a3p5sXtC
⚠️Our paper on the systematics of Munididae is out! We solve the taxonomy on the diverse genus Munida. Several new genera are described. It was a long way to get this done, #taxonomy needs a lot of time! But here it is and I am very happy to be part of it. https://t.co/sTvTwhfEHL
Delighted to be in Australia this month, working with @petemumby on modelling coral adaptation to climate change in Palau.
This is an exciting new direction building from the roots of @Coralassist_Lab and @PICRCPalau@gr_tedi
Thanks to @SciencesNCL for the support!
New book chap!!:
"Informing Coral Reef Conservation Through Metabolomic Approaches"
Awesome collab between @DavidJSuggett@emmafcamp@tinyscientist Christine Ferrier-Pagès & Simon Davy @DavyLabNZ and edited by the legends @spectacularia & @CoralSymBiomiX

Our project in collaboration with @HeloiseRouze was awarded a @NFWFnews grant today! If you are interested in coral microfrags and microbiomes, we will be hiring a research assistant soon so stay tuned!! @UOGTriton
You better be-reef we’re working hard to protect corals! NFWF just announced $1.5 million in grants to improve the health + resilience of coral reefs, with @noaa, @noaacoral and @Aramco_Americas: https://t.co/FLc8YoIZe1
Nouveaux horizons pour @TaraOcean_ avec le lancement, cet automne, du chantier de Tara Polar Station. Une station polaire dérivante pour des missions au long cours en Arctique, véritable sentinelle du changement climatique > visite guidée

J-50 ⛵️- La goélette Tara est au large des côtes africaines où les scientifiques et l’équipage effectuent leurs derniers prélèvements.
RDV 15-16 octobre à #Lorient pour un week-end de rencontres et d’échanges à l’occasion de la fin de la #MissionMicrobiomes
+ d'info à venir...
New paper by Kramer et al. on the morphological modifications exhibited by #corals inhabiting the #mesophotic zone and how they improve the host's ability to capture light at depth! 🪸⚡️

🚨 NEW PAPER 🚨 Traffic calming boosts breeding on coral reefs
Slowing down and giving reefs a wider berth boosts #fish breeding - encouraging growth and improving survival. Is it time to adopt acoustic sanctuaries? #OceanOptimism#CoralReefs https://t.co/k6AcdrplOQ
Excited our recent article made it to the cover of
@ConLetters!
Hidden in the deep: Distinct benthic trajectories call for monitoring of mesophotic reefs

Diverse #mesophotic#coral ecosystems are all around #Sesoko, down to at least 80 m depth. We now worry that some of these corals are already #threatened as one site is now used as parking for construction ships.

My little specs of joy! Every morning I come to the @SeaSim_AIMS worrying my #CoTS cultures have crashed. But here they are floating around. These are special ones because we know who mum and dad are for each individual larvae🤯
