Coral might be "charismatic and fancy" but @Stockholm_Uni researcher Maria Eggertsen says seaweed needs better press. Find out more about her fieldwork collaboration between @EcoEvo_ANU and @deepsthlmuni at Ningaloo Reef. https://t.co/mMDIlVy8YU
At Ningaloo Reef, the underwater view includes dozy whale sharks, elegant manta rays, hundreds of fish species... and ANU researchers hard at work. See behind the scenes of their long-term marine ecology study. https://t.co/pneMXl99Af
Algae - a very important but sadly overlooked part of coral reefs!
Through her research PhD student Maria Eggertsen wants to put algae on the map!
Read more about Maria's work in the article in @TidningExtrakt (in Swedish)

Honoured and humbled to win @nswdpi's John Holliday Conservation Award for my work identifying the ecological value of sponge, soft coral and macroalgae habitats to fish, and the use of canopy height as a cost-effective indicator of fish diversity: https://t.co/ZPkyhF3Pnq
Seminar tomorrow at 12.30 in P502 by Joshua Van Lier @JoshvL20 from @scienceANU (Australian National University) on "Multiscale predictors of fish assemblage structure in soft complexity habitats" @Stockholm_Uni
van Lier: local canopy quality also super important-unseasonal loss of Sargassum canopy height led to 80% reduction in fish abundance 5 days later! #IPFC10
