Beyond the sunlit shallows of Australia's #GreatSouthernReef lies deep water mesophotic habitats, or "sponge gardens". PhD candidate Jack Parker is investigating these reefs, mapping habitats, revealing their rich biodiversity & how they function as refuges in a changing world.

Jack Parker's research investigates deep water habitats as climate refuges. With ocean temperatures rising, species may migrate to cooler mesophotic reefs, which offer stable temperatures compared to shallower waters. #GreatSouthernReef #MesophoticZone

New paper: Fully protected areas that are large and cover whole reefs provide conservation benefits for reef sharks🦈 Benefits DOUBLE when embedded within areas of effective fisheries management‼️ This "mixed management" approach boosts global conservation of elasmobranchs🦈
