Never a dull moment in the @SeaSim_AIMS @aims_gov_au ! Long nights and incredible observations during #coralspawning2020. The race to the reef continues! @DrCathiePage @ChristineGiul11 @brionystephenso @KatieAllenOcean

Some beautiful platygyra spawning at @SeaSim_AIMS tonight! #coralspawning2020 #coralbabies

AUS - The Future Is Now: Long-Term Research Shows Ocean Acidification Ramping up on the Great Barrier Reef @aims_gov_au #oceanacidification #GreatBarrierReef https://t.co/iG1V93SRGA

No longer a sombre forecast, but a present-day reality

New study led by Dr Katharina Fabricius shows #oceanacidification is increasingly rapidly on the #GreatBarrierReef. Seawater CO2 has ⬆️ 6% in 10 yrs, matching the rate of CO2 ⬆️ in the atmosphere

Interested in #coralreef #foodwebs beyond the coral- and fish-centric paradigm? We outline a novel perspective for #seacucumber and lagoon sediment communities on the #GreatBarrierReef

Good news from the #KeppelIslands this week!
Corals have shown resilience to the 2020 mass #bleaching event. They have mostly recovered and branches from Acropora sp. colonies are bearing eggs, in time for the annual mass #coralspawning on the #GreatBarrierReef.

Day respirometry for Acropora millipora and Montipora aequituberculata checking for #photosynthesis and #calcification in @SeaSim_AIMS! #coralreef #oceanacidification #WomenInSTEM #wheresthecoralemoji

[Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority @gbrmarinepark]

Aerial surveys this week showed very widespread bleaching across the #GreatBarrierReef. Key tourism areas are less affected. Read the full story and watch our video update: https://t.co/hps5e5qYIc #Queensland #science
