Shipworms aren’t worms. They’re bivalves that eat wood with the help of symbiotic bacteria turning wooden shipwrecks into functioning ecosystems. #MolluscMonday Fantastic image from seahistory.org/sea-history-...

SEAGROW is GO!

The world is your…. 🦪 fantastic work from @ulsterwildlife.bsky.social and Belfast Harbour!

Good morning here is your emergency sloth

It’s Trinity Open Day and one of the most common questions I get asked is ‘what kind of jobs do zoologists do?’ - so we asked our alumni… youtu.be/lJr4AsZ_rLc?...

Saying that it's "too hard" to get on the Irish president ballot when an independent woman got the entire Irish left to back her, got the biggest vote ever and beat two historically dominant parties is not just wrong - it is breathtakingly offensive and outrageously dishonest. #Aras25 #Speirgorm

This little bivalve larva is taking a stroll with its foot… #marineplankton 🦑

We also launched the BRICONS project this week! There's a lot of work to do restoring habitats in the face of global change! www.marine.ie/site-area/ne...

SEAGROW has begun! We cannot wait to get started quantifying all the benefits of regenerative ocean farming! @tcddublin.bsky.social

Delighted to see the Living Seawalls in Ireland! www.irishexaminer.com/news/munster... @louisefirth.bsky.social

This is definitely true… 😔

This went completely under my radar. A rewilded Glen of the Downs Golf Course that creates an unexpected corridor between the GOTDs, Kindlestown Wood and the Little Sugar Loaf 🤯 www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p...

Ugh so frustrating! Just hurry up and build it! 🚆

The Irish media bear significant responsibility for Ireland's lack of progress. The example below illustrates this clearly. Their deference to climate-denying billionaires like Michael O'Leary is so deeply ingrained that it's often overlooked — but it continues to undermine real progress.

She’d definitely get my vote! #Aras25 #spéirghorm

"Tourist discovers ‘extinct’ jellyfish while rock-pooling in Outer Hebrides" this is why #InverteFest encourages you to smell the flowers and ogle the critters. cameras have gotten exponentially better over the years and EVERYONE has a high chance of making scientific discoveries in normal places.

the brilliant @marianacerca.bsky.social is highlighted this week by EU4Algae! Read about her groundbreaking work linking seaweed science and society! maritime-forum.ec.europa.eu/eu4algae-int...

This review clearly shows that macroalgal decomposition rates vary significantly between experimental approaches and are severely underestimated when a refractory pool is not considered, impacting scaled-up estimates of macroalgal carbon export to the deep ocean 🌊🌱

Two (!) ongoing Academic (Research and Teaching) positions in Ecology, here at Monash University in Melbourne. Closing in a little over a week! Please share widely! Both at Lecturer/Senior Lecturer level (similar to Assistant Professor) careers.pageuppeople.com/513/cw/en/jo...

It absolutely makes sense that men are using AI more and seeing more job benefits, because confidently spouting nonsense in the shape of information (what LLMs are programmed to do) has always been much more of a pathway for career advancement for men than for others.

oystercatcher "What, I meant to do that"

The remains of a Weather balloon- with its transmitter still attached. Been seeing a few of these washing in over the summer months 🤔 County Clare, Ireland.

I was on Newstalk earlier trying to explain why Ireland has been so hopeless in protecting our marine environment. Listen back 📻 ⤵️ www.newstalk.com/podcasts/hig...

Yet again, we're seeing horrific reports of the killing of seven children in Gaza this time as they were waiting for water at a distribution site. UNICEF calls for an immediate and lasting ceasefire, aid at scale and release of hostages.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

Out today in Nature, our paper on the drivers of the record 2023 summer heating of the North Atlantic. Temperatures warmed to record levels in just a few months. The impacts on climate & ecosystems were severe. A thread on how this work came about and what we found.👇👇🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Nice postdoc here 👇👇
