Reef balls and similar structures are manufactured concrete forms that are used worldwide as artificial reef material. These concrete domes have up to 230 square feet of surface area, offering a massive amount of real estate for benthic & encrusting organisms to settle.

Indeed! I had a blast joining for this episode, @GallaudetTim. What a great group to chat about #shipwreck #ecology.

I'm coming back from a Twitter / X hiatus :)

This was a fun episode of The American Blue Economy Podcast, where went diving into shipwreck ecology. We talked a lot about sand tiger sharks, like the one you see here! https://t.co/kfrvCvB6BB

Not all news about the environment is alarmist. Here's to the success story that is @NOAA 's National Marine Sanctuary System!!
