#LordHoweMarinePark is truly a mix of #temperate and #tropical, with softies living next to hard corals next to algae, and a mix of fish life to compliment. So many questions to ask in this unique ecosystem. Taken whilst monitoring with Rosie Steinberg, PhD 🪸 Dr Tess Moriarty


More mouths make light work? Or something like that. Fish friends helping out with coral collection #LordHoweMarinePark Dr Tess Moriarty Rosie Steinberg, PhD 🪸 @CoralTraceLab


We feel so lucky to donate our #marinepark art and help out at the #oceanfilmfestival @lordhoweisland - a massive thank you to Sallyann Gudge for a wonderful evening of surf and fun Rosie Steinberg, PhD 🪸 Dr Tess Moriarty Dr Tracy Ainsworth A/Prof. @UNSW Science Bill Leggat


Day 11: some belated team introductions - a thread. Here we introduce our team leads - Rosie Steinberg, PhD 🪸 and myself. We’re very pleased to meet you!

Endolithic algal blooms visible alongside mortality as the bleaching in the Heron Island lagoon worsens ☹ will this mean accelerated bioerosion of the reef structure? sciencedirect.com/science/articl… UNSW Science Uni Newcastle Research @CoralTraceLab Symbiosis Genomics @jesseb3rg Coulson
