Shannon Coppersmith

PhD candidate @uniofadelaide looking at the connectivity and movement ecology of sea snakes. Interested in telemetry, marine ecology and conservation 🦑🐠🪸

[Shannon Coppersmith @S_Coppersmith]

Really excited to share the first publication from my PhD in #MovementEcology, 'Wiggle and Glide: fine-scale telemetry reveals unique diving strategies in benthic-foraging sea snakes'! Read it here: https://t.co/hH2uxC69he

[GBE (Genome Biology and Evolution) @GenomeBiolEvol]

Now out in GBE: Some sea snakes have re-evolved the ability to see more colors https://t.co/CwlvXvms4k #science #evolution #biology #genome #snakes

[Shannon Coppersmith @S_Coppersmith]

Was so excited to present some preliminary results at @bls8tokyo2024 last week! Thanks to all that came to hear about our sea snake tracking in Exmouth Gulf ���🐍

[Isaac Rossetto @isaacrossetto]

Stoked to announce the publication of my first sea snake vision paper! “Functional Duplication of the Short-Wavelength-Sensitive Opsin in Sea Snakes: Evidence for Reexpanded Color Sensitivity Following Ancestral Regression.” 🐍👁️🎨

Give it a read here! https://t.co/tB3sAjLMsA

My kind of talk! Thanks @S_Coppersmith from @UniofAdelaide for introducing us to the wonderful world of sea snakes and to the ways of gathering ecological data on these mysterious critters. #ESAus23 #MarineEcology #WildOz

This is a PA to say sea snakes are cute. Check out these guys holding tails to sleep 💤

[Shannon Coppersmith @S_Coppersmith]

@PointonAmelia Additional evidence!!

[Dr. Kate Quigley @la__cientifica]

Seasnake duo extraordinaries @S_Coppersmith and @PointonAmelia taking us through how to track and then use eDNA to detect snakes st @minderoo @ExmouthResearch science night! 🐍

[Naomi Gardiner @NaomiMGardiner]

what will the post-release mortality / survivorship be of #seasnakes caught and release by prawn trawlers? great research goal @S_Coppersmith ! let’s hope that survivorship is really high and we can keep eating those yummy prawns!

[Dr Dominic McAfee @dominicmcafee6]

Great #AMSA22 talk by @S_Coppersmith on wrestling wild sea snakes 🐍 to fill critical #marine conservation knowledge gaps. Exciting research @UniofAdelaide
