Super excited to be at the “4th world conference of small-scale fisheries", taking place in Malta, with the theme "imagine the (un)imaginable". Day 1 Inspiring and thought provoking plenary session - Imagine Gender Equity #4wsfc MCAST Mulleres Salgadas #smallscalefisheries

A wonderful and Insightful session about the journey towards sustainable fisheries in Wales and the benefits of fisher science partnerships. Amazing job! @CharlieHeney CharlotteNColvin Dr Natalie Hold Bex Turner 🐌🦀🦞 #4wsfc MCAST #ssf Bangor University

#RCUK2022 plenary talk by @RemoteReefs: ‘Coral reefs, the moon, and underwater obstacles’. Brilliant overview of how the moon drives tides which drives internal waves which drive nutrient delivery to coral reefs which drives the spatial ecology of reef organisms!

Jarvis island following 2015 bleaching event 98% hard coral cover decrease from 0-30m… but overall stability in fish biomass and functional trait metrics possibly due to cold pulses after bleaching event Laura Richardson Reef Conservation UK

Really looking forward to presenting our work on benthic community zonation patterns across depths in the Pacific at ECRS 2024 🪸🌊 Thank you Challenger Society and @ECSAssociation for awarding me the grants to be able to attend. Check it out Friday at 12:20 session 5 😀

Check out Lisa Goberdhan ‘s super science at #ECRS2024 showing that ‘Variation in coral rubble cryptofauna is scale-dependent and driven by small-scale habitat characteristics’! Just published in MEPS!

Great to present our work on benthic community depth zonation patterns in the Pacific ECRS 2024 🪸🌊 My first coral reef conference talk ✅ Thank you Challenger Society and Estuarine & Coastal Sciences Association (ECSA) for the grants to attend. #ECRS2024

The wonderful women Bangor University’s Reef systems lab group delivered some great talks and posters this week! ECRS 2024 🪸🙌👏 #ECRS2024 #womeninstem

Fantastic poster session at #ReMeMaRe24! Rhi from #ConwyBay and Joe from #TyneAndWear #WildOysters sites did a brilliant job presenting a poster about our education and engagement programme 🦪 For more info, check out our Impact & Evaluation report 👉 wild-oysters.org/download/391/?…

Great article in Fishing News about lobster mark-release-recapture study led by @HarryThatcher10 Aberystwyth University and Bangor University researchers in collaboration with welsh fishers. A great example of what collaborative working can achieve 💪🦞#sustainablefisheries #FISP #Defra
