*PhD opportunity*: I’ll shortly be advertising a project linking seaweed traits to blue carbon in the context of climate change. Please contact me via email (j.n.griffin at swansea. ac. uk) if potentially interested. More details to follow.

Heterogeneity & complexity are well-known to affect biodiversity, but what about ecosystem functioning? Our new paper shows substrate heterogeneity triggers cascades that boost foundation species, biodiversity, and ultimately multifunctionality. https://t.co/DGj2W80eY1

Having an incredible time in Portugal and Galicia visiting the most southern Fucoid resilience experiment sites and learning lots from the great team at @BEcologyCIIMAR ! 🌱 🌊

So grateful for funding from @TaithWales for making this trip possible ! Diolch yn fawr 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇵🇹🇪🇸

[John Griffin @JNGriffy]

Happy to be visiting sites in Galicia, N. Spain, with PhD student @rubygeorge_ and the @BEcologyCIIMAR team. This is the southern (warmest) region in our collaborative study on the resilience of intertidal forests along a latitudinal gradient.

[Ruby George @rubygeorge_]

Currently in Orkney for the @BefScale Fucoid resilience experiment fieldwork 🌱 🌊 Exciting to see how differently the plots are recovering here compared to other regions 👀

Thank you so much to @challengersoc for funding my travel for this research trip ! 💙⛴️

[Ruby George @rubygeorge_]

Had a lovely couple of weeks in Newcastle doing some elemental analysis on samples from the @BefScale fucoid resilience experiment 🌱 Also got the chance to check out the local sites for this experiment 🌊

Thank you so much @Pippa_J_Moore & team for having us 😁

[Dr. Jack Cooper 🦈 @CooperPalaeo]

Pleased to share my latest PhD chapter; where me & @pimientoc investigate the rise & fall of shark functional diversity during the Cenozoic era.

Now published OA in @GEB_macro! 🦈

[Amelia Curd @amelia_curd]

Day 1 of the T3 #befscale fucoid resilience biogeographic survey done! With some 🌱growth measurements thrown into the bargain 📏 stunning weather here today in southern Finistère 🇫🇷 not many juveniles and lots of tired looking Osmundea 🍂 🤞 we find the tags this summer!

[Amelia Curd @amelia_curd]

Spring #befscale sampling done 🙌Weather got unstuck from early-March just in time & was glorious! Too early for fucoid reproduction & lots of Osmundea in 100% removal plots for now. Nb: please admire Pr. Davoult’s reclined fucoid kelp tagging position 🌱😎

Sunny fieldwork in South Wales this weekend ☀️ Monitoring the Pembrokeshire disturbance-recovery plots for the @BefScale resilience experiment 🌱

@MarineSwansea @shenderson201 @IlannaXo

[Ruby George @rubygeorge_]

We have completed the spring disturbance-recovery surveys at all 4 Orkney sites for the fucoid resilience experiment ! 🌱

Thank you to @JoanneSPorter , @Martynazawadz , Rob, and Connor 🤩

[Ruby George @rubygeorge_]

Very windy on the shore today at our ‘Totem Pole’ disturbance-recovery site in Orkney ! 🌊

@Martynazawadz
@JoanneSPorter
@BefScale

[Ruby George @rubygeorge_]

The first of four sites surveyed in Orkney today for the Disturbance-Recovery experiment 🌱 🌊

No rain and even a bit of sun ! ☀️ Thank you to Monty for helping too 🐶

@BefScale @JoanneSPorter @Martynazawadz

[Ruby George @rubygeorge_]

A bit of a bumpy ferry journey ⛴😅 but we made it to Orkney 🦭

At least we had a lovely sleep on the Caledonian sleeper train 😴

Excited for a week of @BefScale fieldwork with @martynazawadz and @JoanneSPorter 🌊

[Amelia Curd @amelia_curd]

That’s T2 of the #befscale fucoid disturbance recovery survey for team Brittany done! 🌊🌱🐚🦀1 hobo logger lost, 1 drowned, but 4 recovered 😅 even after all the winter storms 🙌
