Managed a glimpse of the Woppaburra totem, Mug-ga Mug-ga, humpback 🐋 and calf , here in Woppaburra sea country 🐋😀🌊

Thanks for joining us Rohan Brooker. Was great to have your fish expertise on board 🐠🐟🐡

Proud of this guy and all the hard work he has put into his dissection and data collection for his #AMSA22 poster! Ask Nico about legacy effects of bleaching on reproduction! Great work! Australian Institute of Marine Science

What a privilege to be invited to speak to #AMSA22 attendees! Thank you for the opportunity and my ❤-felt thanks to this wonderful team including NWebster_Micro, Dr. Marji Puotinen and Ben Radford (sorry I missed you in my slide!) Australian Institute of Marine Science

Great talk by Cathie Page AMSA-NSMSS 2024 Conference today highlighting findings from coral seeding trials in Woppaburra sea country! Exciting results and some new questions raised! Australian Institute of Marine Science BHP

So much we still don't know about corals and their requirements for life, particularly on inshore reefs.

And the system's on its way! With a huge truck, lots of pallets, all hands on deck, and pizza to keep us going, we transported, delivered and assembled the system for on-country spawning today! She starts the journey tomorrow! Australian Institute of Marine Science BHP #WCP SeaSim Christine Giuliano

Our onboard aquaculture system, the marvellous creation of Christine Giuliano and SeaSim, is fully stocked with fecund corals ready to spawn! 😀🪸🪸🌝 Wonder how many nights they will keep us waiting?🤔 #ACRRI #spawning #GBR

We are ready in red! Special WeareWoppaburra colonies with known bleaching responses are on board and ready for spawning! Excited to bring SeaSim to the reef! #ACRRI #WCP Australian Institute of Marine Science BHP #coralspawning

✔️ #Corals on the cusp of spawning in tanks ✔️ Rearing pools deployed for coral spawn Our team hope to answer - what are the pros & cons of rearing baby corals in enclosed tubs vs floating nurseries? #ACRRI BHP @SECORE_coral More: bit.ly/3T9NSen

We are honoured to be Welcomed to Country by the Woppaburra Traditional Custodians for #coralspawning. Traditional Custodians are joining scientists in the field to gain hands-on experience in marine science and coral seeding. 🔗bit.ly/3T9NSen #ACRRI BHP

Training is underway for Woppaburra Traditional Custodians during #CoralSpawning on sea Country. This team are learning about #ReefRestoration techniques and rearing coral larvae in floating nurseries. 🔗 bit.ly/3T9NSen #ACRRI BHP

Buckets of fun!😴😴😴 🪸

Really stoked to finally share this preprint, 4 years in the making, that characterizes larval precompetency periods and settlement responses for 25 GBR coral species. SeaSim Australian Institute of Marine Science researchsquare.com/article/rs-338…

Fish & photogrammetry surveys are the focus for Reef Song’s last field trip to Lizard Island, northern #GreatBarrierReef, this season. They’re studying the relationship between fish + coral growth to boost reef recovery and resilience. More: bit.ly/3O0BaPt #ACRRI BHP

2024 Great Barrier Reef widespread bleaching event unfolding. Very high (60-90% corals cover) and extreme (>90% coral cover) prevalence of coral bleaching is clearly visible from aerial surveys on a third of the surveyed reefs, across all 3 regions of the Great Barrier Reef.

The #GreatBarrierReef had a challenging summer. View the Reef snaphot: summer 2023-24➡️ bit.ly/3Q1PqbC The snaphot, a joint initiative of Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority, AIMS + CSIRO, looks at the recent summer conditions & how Reef health fared. More: bit.ly/3Jp6bdb

Following #ReefResilience24 symposium from Townsville this week.. eyes down the microscope, ears tuned in to the live stream 🔬🪸 feeling energised to get all this data out!
