@DaviesswPhD We have used PVC tile sandwiches made from sheets of PVC for coral recruitment work on Palmyra Atoll. We roughed up the surface a little bit with a palm sander - they are easy to drill and no risk of breaking in transport. Happy to provide more details if you’d like!

Nutrient pollution can suppress immune pathways in the #coral Porites porites, potentially making them more susceptible to disease and slowing healing from predation. New #openaccess pub led by @KEDougan w/ @images_lab @vegathurberlab @BurkepileLab https://t.co/kvDicQkOmW

TL;DR:
"URMs produce higher rates of scientific novelty. However, their novel contributions are devalued and discounted"
