🐢🌊 Did you know there are 7 species of sea turtles and six of them can be found right here around the U.S.? Each one plays a unique role in our oceans, from reef cleaners to deep-sea travelers. Happy #WorldSeaTurtleDay

Now everyone will go look up the book and it will make NY Times. #sighs #booksky #writingcommunity

South Florida meteorologist @johnmoralestv.bsky.social told his viewers live on air that he can no longer accurately predict hurricane season, due to federal government cuts.

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉 Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace. You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

Mum called all the way from St. Thomas to ask me what this was. Then proceeds to have me on speaker to teach beach goers about urchins.

Summer internship opportunity!

Mexican cannonball jellies is so surreal they look almost fake, with a chandelier-like mouth and deep blue color. But this species is also the target of an active & largely unregulated fishery, which collapsed around 2017. But recent posts from citizen scientists provide hope of a blueberry comeback

Beautiful day for a dive!

If anyone needs a good dive shop in South Florida, 100% recommend!

So ist es. Das übersehen auch viele Linke/Progressive/Libs. Es gibt drei Phasen, in denen Faschisten bekämpft werden: 1. vor Machtergreifung. Hier reichen politische Mittel und der Rechtsstaat aus. Aber: Toleranzparadoxon! Lassen wir es zu, dass sie durch Medien und Konservative normalisiert… 1/5

Had a great time diving in Pompano Beach!

I know lots of research labs who don’t include undergrad lab assistants as coauthors on papers, because they just followed instructions and didn’t make a serious intellectual contribution. But sure, putting a fantasy author who funded your work as a coauthor screams “serious science, not a stunt.”

Need something to make me feel better after some chappy results this week.

Disappointed doesn't begin to express how I feel. We all worked so hard to get where we are and apply for graduate school and within 2 months he managed to ruin so much for so many of us.

What did the Penguins do this time?

Everyone today:

In grants, instead of climate change should we now be saying the change in the Atmospheric ambiance?

The good news is my university is not on the administration’s lists. The bad news is my university is not on the administration’s lists.

Professors, is this graduate admission cycle just absolutely screwed?

That is just so sad to see. An REU was my first real introduction to independent research and really cemented the idea into my head that I want to pursue a PhD.

Out today participating in the #BlacksBioBlitz with @official-bweems.bsky.social

Last call for conference registrations! Final opportunity to register for the conference! Applications for travel assistance will close on Monday, February 24th, 2025, at 11:59 PM! If you haven't signed up yet and intend to seek travel support, you have 2 DAYS LEFT!

As a person who applied for PhD programs for this upcoming fall, what do the current political issues we've been facing mean for admissions this year?

New paper out in GCB Today! We leveraged a system of typical (“classic”) and high-temperature “extreme” reef sites in Chelbacheb (Palau) to study the diversity in symbiotic partners, holobiont traits, and thermal tolerance among cryptic lineages of massive Porites.

Any day you spot a munching turtle is a good day.
