#CORAL18 Catherine Lovelock talking about the importance of #BlueCarbon resources, in particular #mangrove systems and the ecosystem services they provide @CoralCoE

The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority is larger than 2/3rds of countries on the planet: yet for the first time in #monitoring history all three areas of the park (north, central and south) are showing steep declines in #coral. Frightening facts from Dr Roger Beeden at @CoralCoE #CORAL18 #IYOR2018

I have been informed by Emirates Emirates Support that they do not let people bring their expressed breastmilk through transit #seriously

Coral reef fish may acclimate to climate changes but depends on trait observed & the rate of temp changes Jenni Donelson at #Coral17 @CoralCoE

Coral reef fish can epigenetically regulate key genes associated with acclimating to ocean warming Heather Veilleux at #Coral17 @CoralCoE

Steve Comeau - variable environmental conditions ameliorate effects of Ocean Acidification on the Calcification of Corals #Coral17 @CoralCoE

60% of the wave energy that break across reef systems is dissipated by bottom friction not waves breaking Ryan Lowe @ #Coral17 @CoralCoe

IG waves (consisting of wind & swell waves) have frequencies dependent on reef morphology & are linked to flood events - Ryan Lowe #Coral17

Will we lose our reef ecosystems as a result of Climate change? How will we know if or when this happens? Graeme Cumming at #Coral17 @CoralCoE

We need to move from traditional Scheffer hysteresis models of system change to a broader structure & process approach Graeme Cumming #Coral17

#funfact from Maja Adamska at #Coral17 - Some sponges can be completely taken to pieces and they can reassemble if left as a pile of cells!

Smart little fishes learn to avoid predators in 3 ways: 1) direct experience, 2) chemical cues 3) social learning Mark Ian McCormick - #Coral17

Chemically active substrates (e.g. cyanobacteria) on dead coral renders reef fish unable to learn about threats Mark Ian McCormick #Coral17

.....and that's a wrap! Two amazing days in Canberra for the Australian Research Council @CoralCoE Coral Reef Futures symposium at the The Shine Dome #Coral17

Reminder: Post-doc available in my lab working on ecological time-series. Applications due 16 July. seek.com.au/job/33613285?t…

Awesome interview with Tara Clark about loss of Acropora on the GBR! Jez Roff John Pandolfi x.com/abcnews/status…

This is Opal Reef on the #GreatBarrierReef in 2016 and again in 2017. Climate change (and it's consequences) are real. #MyOneScienceTweet

More people visit the aquarium than sporting events! #ECRS2017 Heather Koldewey plenary!

Got my orange on this morning for #ECRS2017 - looking forward to 3 days of #coralreef talks hosted by Reef Conservation UK

.Heather Koldewey highlights innovative conservation projects - such as Net-Works (has moved...) to reduce abandoned nets - removing plastic from the ocean and providing income to local communities #ECRS2017
