#DYK #ShellfishReefs are excellent at #carbon sequestration? 🤔 #Shellfish mineralize carbon in the water to create their shells! This simple act provides the Earth with a long-term sink for atmospheric carbon! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 📸Alice Howie

The IUCN is currently convening the #IUCNworldcongress. It's a big deal. Motion 49 passed. It's also a big deal. It is literally the world calling on the Australian Government to enact more effective environment laws to address the extinction crisis. #auspol

Suitability #models are an essential piece of the puzzle for #restoration - adding logistic but also stakeholder /social data to more classic environmentally driven habitat models. Extra points for featuring southern #ostrea #itrs2023 The Nature Conservancy

Had the best time presenting at ITRS 2023 in Hobart last week! Great to hear this presentation was well received :) Looking forward to further applying these types of models to the more spatially complex, urban estuaries on our coasts!🦪🐟🗺️🏙️🌐 #macrocystis #GIS #itrs2023
