[UniMelb SciComm @UniMelbscicomm]

Hugely proud of my #UniMelbscicomm students whose hard work and talent were recognised this evening. Special mention to Alex, winner of the @unimelb Bachelor of Science Medal and @PhilipErm, highest-achieving graduate student. Brilliant speeches too! #scicomm #proudlecturer

It's amazing what you find when you leave a camera filming a #seagrass meadow... Here's a couple of blacktip reef sharks cruising around my #phd experiment at Green Island, probably taking advantage of all the fish here and looking for their next meal. @TropWATER @jcu @CairnsGBR

Amazing day for fieldwork in Port Phillip Bay ☀️ #algae #unimelb #melbourne

[Cassie Pert @pertcg]

Great new study by @unimelb reveals aquaculture practices make 50% of farmed salmon deaf. Raises welfare concerns. https://t.co/rsKLKvNyCP

If you live or work around Port Phillip Bay, my lab mate Becki Morris wants to hear your opinions! https://t.co/iQEBfHNKNL

Artificial nests for #albatross- enhance breeding success in areas that lack nest materials as #climateadaptation strategy.

#Seagrass queen @abbilscott on the effects of herbivory on seagrass meadows #amsa2017 #sexyseagrass

[Dr. Kylie Scales @KylieScales]

How do we capture uncertainty in expert opinion, rather than ignoring it?! @Alice_R_Jones shows a robust quantitative technique #amsa2017

[Dr. Kylie Scales @KylieScales]

Inspired by @moninya, a #womenInSTEMM hero. Awesome talk on IMOS and phys oceanography of the EAC. Yay frontal eddies! #amsa2017 #oceangeek

[Tim Smith @DrScallop]

Great talk @pertcg about the potential to #harvest #urchins and improve ecosystems #PPB #forgottotweet #amsa2017 https://t.co/HrPUMlWUY3

[Dr Abbi Scott @abbilscott]

Great PEP talk from @pertcg- there can be ecological and economical benefits to urchin farming. #amsa2017

[Cassie Pert @pertcg]

@DrScallop on the importance of saltmarsh to fisheries. We may need to rethink its role in estuarine environments #AMSA2017

[Cassie Pert @pertcg]

Hobday- we need to act now! Completely understanding a system before we act may be too late. Thought-provoking! @AlistairHobday #AMSA2017

[Rob Harcourt @RobHarcourt]

Hopday -we are already intervening in the system-can't wait for whole of system understanding - powerful! #amsa2017

[Catherine Cavallo 🌏 @CavalloDelMare]

Each @amsa_marine conference, I love discovering the diverse ways we are caring for & learning from our marine environs.Keep it up #AMSA2017

[Cassie Pert @pertcg]

Great talk by @KylieScales - using ecoinformatics to predict bycatch risk in real-time. Good for fisheries + conservation #AMSA2017 #EcoCast
