🌿Researchers from JCU's @TropWATER will investigate restoration techniques for key tropical seagrass species, from Queensland’s Great Barrier Reef across to the north of Western Australia.

Epic #dugong feeding trails discovered during #seagrass mapping workshops with @TropWATER and Mandubarra Land and Sea Rangers on our new Healing Country Partnership
For those lucky enough to be attending #AMSA22 in Cairns this August, you have one more week to secure some of our great merchandise. Fabulous shirts, coffee cups, water bottles and dive slates are on offer. https://t.co/2M2iRK2EGp.
Pick up only at the conference - no delivery.
Seagrass at different sites in #PortPhillipBay consistently produce different sized #seeds which affected their germination and persistence. #Seagrass

It's great to be back on Mabuyag as part of our #seagrass exclusion experiment. Today @drpyork and I have been checking on our most remote exclusion cages on Orman Reefs, chatting with the community about this project and sharing knowledge about seagrasses and herbivores.
Mega-herbivores, #dugong and #greenseaturtles, have been found to increase #seagrass germination, with up to four times greater germination probability and up to 60% faster time to germinate. Read how here: https://t.co/Tb7f2ENuTB
My final PhD chapter is now published!
We found that the impact of green turtle and dugong grazing on seagrass meadows varies spatially on a regional scale, but also over time at the same location.
A huge thank you to my lab team and my supervisors!
