Local weather (wind & rain) means in-water temperatures are dropping on #GreatBarrierReef near Cairns - but still well above normal for this time of year. Wind forecast for later in the week looking good. Hang on, corals! Graph updated daily: rrrc.org.au/reef-havens/ #ReefHavens

#Breaking. Today federally funded Indigenous Rangers across Australia heard their contracts would be extended to 2028. Thanks to all our partners & supporters for advocating for this & big credit to @KenWyattMP & Sussan Ley for this step that’s good for nature & people. #Security

Welcome stormy weather at Heron Island, southern #GreatBarrierReef, yday - winds should cool shallow water temperatures and help reduce stress of fluorescing & bleaching corals - recovery is possible! #climate #science #auspol

Great illustration of how quickly wind-driven vertical mixing can restore shallow water temperatures towards "normal" or at least "survivable" for shallow corals #ReefHavens #GreatBarrierReef #intervention

That's a wrap! 2.5 yrs of field trips, 🐊sediment sampling, +950 hours of filtration/centrifugation, hundreds of PCRs! 100s of samples✈️ - - > Ramaciotti Centre for Genomics Thx U: Carlos, Gina, Sam, Vero, Charlie, Julia, Alyx, Danii, Chloe, Sioban, Dylan, Iskra, Jess, Marco, Hugo, Alex, Janna

The human dimension of #Restorationecology is SO important to move the discipline forward ensuring conservation objectives meet the needs of local communities. SERestoration

This is why we've launched #greatreefcensus w/ UQ News @gbrmpa Australian Institute of Marine Science James Cook Uni @GBRFoundation Reef&Rainforest RC. GRC will trial new ways of capturing data to support reef research & management, while we as a society work to urgently reduce GHG #emissions abc.net.au/news/2020-10-1…

Girringun Rangers with Reef Ecologic at #orpheusisland research station as part of our annual Reef Restoration and Leadership Workshop. Sign up for 2022 at reefecologic.org/project/rrwork… #forabetterplanet Reef&Rainforest RC James Cook Uni

This co-designed program is run through a partnership between the Reef&Rainforest RC and INLOC Group and is aimed to improve outcomes for women in 6 key areas: 1. Job Creation 2. Economic Security 3. Workforce Participation 4. Leadership 5. Safety and 6. International Engagement.

So honoured to work with this dedicated team to create COTS management solutions on the #GBR.

A NESPMarineandCoastalHub study led by CSIRO and James Cook Uni calls for a new coordinated and scaled-up approach to restoring Australia’s coastal and marine ecosystems. nespmarinecoastal.edu.au/media-release-…

We’re restoring coastal habitats with the Madjandji Aboriginal Corporation by blending Traditional Owner and scientific knowledge to tackle invasive fish, erosion and water quality – creating healthier ecosystems from drains to reef. #GreatBarrierReef #RRRC

RRRC and Madjandji are reducing sediment entering coastal waterways to protect native species, heal Country, and improve Reef water quality. Practical actions like sediment traps are helping restore coastal ecosystems and deliver benefits for the Reef.🌱🌊

From Country to Coast – the Madjandji Aboriginal Corporation and RRRC community nursery is growing native plants to restore waterways, strengthen habitat corridors, and nurture culture. 🌱 #ReefCoastalRestoration #CaringForCountry #ReefTrust

RRRC and the Madjandji Aboriginal Corporation are restoring the Nirringa Creek and wetland lagoon system by removing invasive weeds and planting native species. The project enhances habitat corridors, supports biodiversity, and improves reef water quality.
