Check out our new paper in ⁦Marine Ecology Progress Series (MEPS)⁩! We show that the #seagrass Posidonia oceanica can survive in + >1°C for decades but despite this persistence even +0.39°C has lead to a reduction in some aspects of meadow structure and a skew in its macrofauna. int-res.com/abstracts/meps…

Seaweed forests are carbon sinks! Our comment has finally been released outlining flaws in Gallagher et al's claim they are carbon sources. Their study confuses #bluecarbon research and creates doubt around initiatives to protect & restore #seaweedforests! doi.org/10.1093/icesjm…

The first chapter of my PhD is out! We examined the physiological responses of two tropical seagrasses found in Hong Kong (Halophila ovalis and H. beccarii) to a simulated marine heatwave. Please check it out from the link: doi.org/10.1002/ece3.1… 🌱🌡☀️ Laura Falkenberg

Excited to see our hot-off-the-press paper published in Science Advances!! We studied the hidden impacts of an unprecedented marine heatwave on Porites lobata, an incredibly common coral species usually considered to be “stress tolerant” 🧵 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

How low can you grow? At least 63m-a new record for the habitat forming #Australian #endemic #seagrass Thalassodendron pachyrhizum. These #deepwater communities are less impacted by extreme climatic events and humans, especially important as our oceans change rapidly.

Check out our new paper Marine Policy where we update the state of the science regarding existing blue carbon pathways and explore emerging blue carbon opportunities. A great collaborative effort led by Jennifer Howard BlueCarbonInitiative Conservation Intl sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Check out my latest paper on #kelp detrital #photosynthesis in Marine Biology, corroborating Wright & Foggo (10.3354/meps13886) on the absence of photosynthetic #pigment loss in #detritus of #Laminaria but showing that this is not true for all kelp genera. doi.org/10.1007/s00227…

Happy to share my first PhD publication in @AnnBot. We found that detrital photosynthesis is a key determinant of #kelp detrital dynamics and is more sensitive to elevated temperature than expected: doi.org/10.1093/aob/mc…. School of Biological Sciences, UWA @UWAOceans Forrest Foundation

Happy #EarthDay! I had the pleasure of working on an ocean microsite for TED-Ed sponsored by OceanX which went online during #EarthWeek. The microsite is a compilation of educational videos on the ocean. Check it out here: ed.ted.com/explore-our-oc…

Writing a review and I just wrote: "People used to do theory. Now they just do regressions." I will delete my snark before submitting. But damn I am tired of vapid empirical papers that argue some neglected thing will transform our understanding and then ***regressions***

Super comprehensive paper on metal #pollution in tropical seagrass meadows, featuring a comprehensive data review and the first spatial analysis, out in Marine Environmental Research Elsevier. Proud of Teresa Nobre!
