Marine biologist, Dr Dolphin, erstwhile bookworm trying to live up to that title again. She/Her.

Tempted to move into a different field for a bit, to investigate mortality in Norway lobsters. Purely to refer to my methods as Nephropsies.

They can't take away my Marine Biology degree, can they?

@franzanth I'm Norway! I figured the best way to get familiar with my new home is to find all the Creatures™️before winter.

@ertaibekir @memerenda Εσείς φοβάστε να φλερταρετε κι εμείς μήπως πεθάνουμε. Αλλά έχεις δίκιο, απορώ πως αντέχετε να ζείτε υπό αυτές τις συνθήκες

PhD training is about the process of scientific investigation. It is not supposed to be a reward for merely happening upon a few positive outcomes.

It’s literally our waste.

1⃣ "Do you think this report will help people act?"
You, as media, informing citizens, inspiring activists, & holding politicians and business to account will "help people to act." Stop passing the buck to scientists, the worst communicators on 🌍, and take some responsibility.

@kate_mahony Thanks Kate! 🐬

[Maria Garagouni @MariaGaragouni]

Delighted to have this work published! We've known that depredation is an issue for coastal fisheries in the area for a *long* time, but this is the first time the cost reported by the fishers has been validated by concurrent experimental surveys.

[Marine Living Resources Group @ AUTH @Ichthyo_log]

Just published in @ICES_ASC JMS: using questionnaire and experimental surveys we showed that depredation caused by bottlenose dolphins lead to substantial losses, up to 5,000 euros per boat, to a gillnet fishery in the eastern Mediterranean Sea

Ok, maybe it sounds ridiculous on the face of it, but there wasn't enough literature out there to suggest it wouldn't have worked before we tested it. At least now we know tabasco isn't the answer...

Question: does dipping fish nets in Hot Sauce deter dolphins?
Answer: no.

🐳🐬🇹🇷 New publication from an understudied area of the eastern Med! 🇹🇷🐬🐳 I'm delighted to announce that the results of our work mapping the spatial distribution of cetaceans in the Mediterranean waters surrounding Turkey has now been published: https://t.co/ZS9bgMsIMq (1/6)

[Maria Garagouni @MariaGaragouni]

It IS an excellent read! Dispells some common misconceptions about coastal fisheries in the Med and how versatile we think they are.

[Maria Garagouni @MariaGaragouni]

Oh this looks like an excellent read!
