RCN-ECS #NSFfunded working group devoted to understanding #Evolution in #oceans under #ClimateChange

When I invited a terrestrial evolutionary ecologist to join our marine-focused working group, he responded “so, NSF pays for folks to get together and chat about how marine biology should proceed…Do I really have anything to contribute?” It is not an unreasonable question. 1/n
