New media release! Our pop sci article in @Oceano_mag

Written together with beautiful images from the talented @LarssonWarzecha describing work in the @Fine_Coral_Lab and @Mass_Coral_Lab to understand resilience during the early life of Red Sea corals.

@passportwaiting How is this data calculated? Is this mean or other statistic?

I'll be taking a Twitter break. This little dude will be providing more than enough entertainment and keeping our hands full for the foreseeable future :)

@Ronen_Liberman and I proudly introduce our son.

Born in a week of weather extremes caused by climate change and as Israeli government casts a vote that erodes democracy, his middle name "Shalom", meaning 'peace' in Hebrew, carries with it our hopes for his and Earth's future.

Providing demographic data for NSF: Actually, I do wish to provide my gender, but your survey does not include nonbinary scientists. You are not accurately assessing diversity when you erase queer and transgender scientists. @ISNBS_ #QueerinSTEM

Bellworthy et al 2023. Physiological and morphological plasticity in Stylophora pistillata larvae from Eilat, Israel, to shallow and mesophotic light conditions.

Excited to share our OA publication, started by a masters student, heavily impacted by COVID, now in @iScience_CP

We report an experiment reciprocally translocating shallow and mesophotic coral larvae between light levels and assessing acclimation over two months.

Highlights 🧵

[Dr. Jessica Bellworthy @JessBellworthy]

Though our data reveal rapid symbiont acclimation, reduced growth rates and limited capacity for skeletal modification will likely limit the potential for mesophotic larvae to settle on shallow reefs.

@DrDanHolstein @Benjamin_Limer @seascapelab1 @FulbrightPrgrm Congratulations Ben and Dan! The @Mass_Coral_Lab is waiting for you!

@ElenaBollati @MBLScience Where are you, Elena?

Successful endurance athletes cross-train.

Science: When you incorporate different sports into your training, you improve your capacity for endurance.

You also greatly reduce your risk of injury and burnout. This is especially true when it comes to older athletes.

@DrJello67 @RSRC_KAUST @KAUST_News Interesting task. Are you part of a specific review board for that or can any academic be called to do such reviews?

[Dr. Jessica Bellworthy @JessBellworthy]

We didn’t expect to find so many electric scooters in the #RedSea… Thank you @Zalul for organizing this beach and sea clean up in #Eilat 🙏🌊 #EarthDay #EarthDay2023
