A prime example of camouflage in the Northern Kelp Crab (Pugettia producta), whose color is dependent on the type of algae they consume.

Neptune’s Dream, my latest painting. I read about the Roman goddess Salacia, who represented calm seas. I’ve always thought of kelp forests as calm and peaceful ecosystems, and this idea came about. #kelpforest #art #art ists

Apparently you have to go abroad for wonderful underwater scenery , no point mucking about in our murky waters ? #Dorset #Kimmeridge #underwater #underwater photography #kelp #kelp forest #seaweed #jurassiccoast #Nauticam #nature #habitat #habitat s #biodiversity #Britishcoast

New #KelpForest print, featuring a #Macrocystis kelp forest with abalone, sea urchins & Garibaldi fish! 💦 #printmaking

One year ago this site was an urchin barren with very little kelp. Today it's a healthy kelp forest where the urchins are tucked back in cracks, passively feeding on the drift algae. #kelp restoration #kelp #kelp forest #tankersreef

Finished my biggest painting (100x80cm) 🤗 it’s a kelp forest!! #kelp forest #califonia #kelp #biodiversity #art #oceanart #acrylicpainting #macrocystis #seaweed

Did you know that kelp isn’t a plant? Though it uses photosynthesis, it is part of the kingdom Protista and is actually a brown alga. This giant kelp forest was found in South Georgia. Lindblad Expeditions #scubadive #kelpforest

Excited to see our paper on the evolutionary assembly of #kelpforest communities published in Functional Ecology! Big thanks to the long list of people who made this work possible (see acknowledgements). dx.doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…. See plain language summary for an overview

Extreme climatic events, such as #marineheatwaves are threatening one of the most productive ecosystems; #kelpforest
Amazing collaboration with my partner in life and crime Nur Arafeh Dalmau

Imagine if you didn't have to count by hand the number of #kelp plants to estimate density!

We are proposing a new method to estimate #kelp forest density using #underwater #sound ! Check it out: experiment.com/kelpsound

Because it's been a year and Royal Society Publishing are awesome, our paper on the interactions between #whitesharks and #seals in #kelpforest is now freely-accessible: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

I’m feeling very buoyant after an Xmas dive this morning on the #giant #kelp ‘magic beans’ seeded 3 months ago: they’ve now grown floats!! Onwards & upwards to the surface 🌱🤞 #MerryXmas from #Tasmania #greengravel #macrocystis #kelp forest #oceanoptimism
