@Martonelab@morgan_vis@HakaiInstitute I mean…some waters around Prince of Wales Island were as warm as areas in Puget Sound a few years ago (not this year, thankfully!). Wonder if it is winter temperature or summer temperature that drives distribution more.
@BeringFisherman I noticed large coho at the start of the season on POW and then they got smaller. I read about a time where runs from the prior were delayed into the next yr, resulting in a bumper yr…but then runs were wonky for a couple of yrs after. Hopefully not like that this year.
CODIUM! Also, holy cow, this "easy" side project reveals I'm a total Jon Snow when it comes to siphonous green seaweeds. Despite teaching #seaweed courses for years...

This week @graceemelchers & I collected spores from likely the last Bull Kelp bed off Gabriola Island, right at the edge of where #SalishSea kelp forests are vanishing due to warming waters from #climatecrisis. Part of our #kelp conservation+restoration research for @kelprescue
Past climate-driven range shifts structuring genetics of the giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) at global scales - Tasmanian giant kelp more similar to Patagonia than New Zealand/ Chile 🤔 https://t.co/jo1rv2IV2p

Please come find me at Bluesky Social! My new handle is "drkelp" since it was actually available and not claimed by a Spongebob account. 😊
We're building a new science community over there.
I was quite honored to be included in this important conversation about black seaweed (Pyropia abbottiae), hosted by the Sealaska Heritage Institute. Indigenous communities in the Pacific Northwest are concerned for a critical resource: https://t.co/IJnBLwY8xk

Seaweed and «Carbon» : everything you wanted to know but were afraid to ask! Professor @CatrionaHurd will share the results of her extensive research on Seaweed and Carbon Dioxide Removal on July 25th, 12PM CET.

Team effort to bring in this 43.6 lb king salmon (but he caught it). Looks smaller in the pics! This is the largest I’ve seen; every time we opened the fish hold, I was 😳.
