After years of hard work by many people (you know who you are!), Australia finally has a blue carbon method! Was does this mean? It means that the restoration of coastal #wetland ecosystems can attract #bluecarbon credits. More here: cleanenergyregulator.gov.au/ERF/Pages/Choo… #BlueCarbon #Wetlands

This map is incredible! I can't wait to read the full report 🤩😍🐳🗺

Very happy to call this place home again for a week and assist in coral monitoring and site survey skill teaching with Heriot-Watt University and University Malaysia Terengganu

Covid finally got me and, with perfect timing, almost derailed my carefully laid plans for data collection. Luckily, I have some amazing supervisors managed to rearrange their week to help me. This is Professor Joanne Porter and SULA saving the day with the SBP and drop down camera 🙌🙏

My first publication! 😁🐬🐋🐳

Would also like to belatedly thank MASTS, MASTS Biogeochemistry Forum, and Sea-Changers for their support in funding this research!

In this experiment Dr Rob Thompson of Reading Meteorology shows just how long it takes water to soak into parched ground, illustrating why heavy rainfall after a #drought can be dangerous and might lead to flashfloods. Dr Rob Thompson Water @ Reading

got some feedback on improvements for cherulean! standalone legibility for each colour is better now and a palette "menu" (i like blue)

🎉 New research out today 🌊➡️🛰️ Although I’m a marine scientist, over the last couple of years I’ve been obsessed with space debris. However, alongside colleagues, we noticed that there was a growing pattern. Challenges in protecting the ocean are now being reflected in orbit.

Dear Journalists covering tomorrow's IPCC report release, First of all, THANK YOU. Second of all, here are a couple of questions you should not be asking climate scientists, ever ever ever.

Incredibly happy to see my / our latest paper published today. Interested in delving into the definition of blue carbon, the wider policy context, research constraints, accreditation processes, and adaptive valuation? Click here to learn more! #bluecarbon doi.org/10.1016/j.scit…

🌊 ZSL's Blue Finance Specialist, Jack Sheehy, talks about his passion for marine conservation and breaks down the concepts of blue finance and blue carbon in the first blog of the #SPOTT10 monthly blog series. Read the full blog here👇 zsl.org/news-and-event…

New paper alert! Using Sub-Bottom Profiling and Drop-Down Video we measured maerl sediment thickness and detailed correlations with abiotic factors and maerl habitat cover. Average maerl sediment thickness was 1.08m. Click to learn more #bluecarbon #maerl doi.org/10.1038/s41598…

New paper! Using Sub-Bottom Profiling and Drop-Down Video we measured horse mussel sediment thickness and detailed correlations with abiotic factors and horse mussel habitat cover. Average horse mussel sediment thickness was 1.37m #bluecarbon #horsemussel doi.org/10.3389/fmars.…

Incredibly happy to see our latest paper published! Using novel adaptive approaches to predictive modelling we evaluated and valuated seagrass, maerl, and horse mussel habitats across Orkney and identified key areas for conservation. #bluecarbon doi.org/10.1016/j.scit…

I’m excited to join the TRANSECTS project (transects.org.uk) as a Research Associate, evaluating natural capital for coastal communities! We’ll explore lessons from past energy transitions (whale oil, oil & gas, renewables) to inform future development. 🌱🌍 #TRANSECTS
