6月8日は #世界海洋デー  #WorldOceansDay 豊かな海洋環境を守り次世代に伝えるために 、海と実験室とを往復しながら研究を進める 海洋環境地質研究グループの日常をレポートします。 6月の晴れた日、沖縄のある島の海岸に行った研究者は 何を調べようとしているのでしょうか？

カイメンに共生するスナギンチャク Umimayanthus sp.

新種として確認されたばかりで、謎に包まれている大型の深海魚ヨコヅナイワシについて、海洋研究開発機構の研究グループが、全長が2メートルを超えると推定される、巨大な個体を撮影することに成功したと発表しました。 www3.nhk.or.jp/news/html/2022… #nhk_video

Unexpected encounter with MISE boss Kristen Soong James Davis Reimer

Lovely glass sponge festooned with zoanthids (anemones) on the left and comb jellies (red) on the right ! #okeanos 1451 m Cachalote Ridge North Atlantic

Finally our sea pen sclerite paper was published!! ウミエラ骨片論文でました！生息水深帯の変遷に伴う骨片の進化の傾向を探ってみました。ウミエラ共通祖先の仮説もありです。PeerJ - the Journal of Life & Environment peerj.com/articles/13929 #Biodiversity #EvolutionaryStudies #MarineBiology #MolecularBiology #Zoology

It’s always nice to come back in the office. #invertebrate #vitaminSea

A #Halloween classic! This crab isn’t entering a costume contest - it's carrying a colony of Zoanthid Corals. Researchers think it is symbiotic: coral gets better access to food+crab gets extra protection. It pulled a trick ~ Listen for reaction to surprising moves! #TrickOrTreat

Japan undertook first ever #ExcavationTests of #DeepSea seafloor #MassiveSulfides in 2017 in the Okinawa Trough. We observed various #impacts on benthic communities and identified several possible indicators of mining disturbance. #FeatureArticle bit.ly/meps_712_1

Exciting - #MPAShift is funded by Lenfest Ocean Program and fuels our research into tropicalisation and it’s managemt via #Zuno2.0 and MPA collaborations!

How do we know this? We sampled Pocillopora corals along the Kuroshio current, from the southern islands of Okinawa to Wakayama in mainland Japan.
