A sneak peek of our set up for a long-term experiment to study the combined effect of ocean acidification, warming, deoxygenation and food limitation on the cold-water corals at @marinestation. Read more in a blog post by @KristinaKBeck - https://t.co/xpWp2w1X5n
Check out our new article where we show that corals can ventilate areas of high oxygen production by ciliary beating, helping them mitigate potential oxidative damage 🪸 https://t.co/Z2ITamqEAq

The giant #kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera), is a brown #algae that can be found mainly in #upwelling places, such as North America, South #America, South #Africa, New #Zealand, and Southern #Australia. Basically, in… https://t.co/KaYZiSBcPN
Finishing a cold and long #dive after searching for #corals in their #reproductive stage, the taste of a hot drink is always in our minds. However, encounters of this type, an #anemone Chilensis which is not common,… https://t.co/RrhG5tOpm8
In life, hostile and common things can give you nice surprises if you give them enough time. This #seaurching (Arbacia dufresnii) from the #Chilean#fjord region have a relevant importance in the system, due to… https://t.co/ZiOp3ov16r
I am happy to mention that everything went well on my second expedition to the #Chilean#fiords. Behind my back, the white structures are the #cold-water #corals that I'm studying. Thank to National Geographic I… https://t.co/ioge1rbJjz
The #underwater world of the #Patagonian#fjord region appears to be very hostile at first. Its deep and dark waters accompanied at some point by strong currents are not the best combination for a pleasant dive for… https://t.co/sGAh9M9fDo
Cold-water #corals are known to form a three-dimensional habitat for a rich associated #fauna, as do the three scleractinids found in #Patagonia's #fjord system. However, the willingness to use and recycle other… https://t.co/Ixd2o1JCiQ
The Chilean #Patagonia has a coastline of more than 80.000 km. This is approximately double the extension of the Earth. This incredible formation of #fjords, channels, and islands contains one of the most #diverse… https://t.co/B6p6GHGflp
The #jewel#Anemone ("Corynactis sp." ) is characterized by its fabulous #fluorescent green ring around the #tentacular margin. Its height is close to 2.5 cm. However, it has the fastest… https://t.co/wrceNK1bOV
The #yellow encrusting #anemone (Parazoanthus elongatus) is found attached to the #rocky substratum in #cold-waters, forming an important part of the #macro-zoobenthos of the #fjord… https://t.co/I05gX5gtgz
The @IPCC_CH report on #GlobalWarming of 1.5°C is one of the most important #climatechange reports ever published. Limiting temperature increase requires unprecedented changes in society, but will have huge benefits. Every half a degree of warming matters. https://t.co/a7GOzVFv50
