Happy to be a #laCaixaFoundation Fellow @lacaixa.bsky.social for the second time! After 15 years since I left Catalonia! Ten years ago La Caixa supported my PhD, which took me on an exciting journey around the world. Now, you bring me back home to @icmcsic.bsky.social. Thank you, thank you!

New review on OECMs by @dpetza.bsky.social et al, emphasising the need for standardised assessment methods, improved decision-support tools, and socio-cultural integration to enhance OECM recognition under the 30 × 30 conservation target link.springer.com/article/10.1... @skatsanevakis.bsky.social

I love Mexico's Kelp forests, because in them, there is an amazing community of fishers, NGOs, academics, & people. They are tough but kind, threatened but resilient. Just like the Baja California dessert, a magic underwater forest exists where collaboration is key for adaptation. Thank you again!

👀Behind the Paper!👀 🪸Carolina Olguín Jacobson explores the effects of heatwaves on kelp-related species and how monitoring and conservation efforts may be the solution to managing heat stress in marine organisms🌊 Read it here👇 buff.ly/2bxZJ1T 🧪🌍

The Global Coalition to Halt the Extinction of Sharks and Rays is launching today! 1.30pm in Auditorium Nautilus, La Baleine, at the UN Oceans Conference in Nice @iucnshark.bsky.social @sscmarine.bsky.social @protectspecies.bsky.social

🚨Hot off the press! Happy to share my new publication on marine protected areas (MPAs), marine heatwaves, climate change and kelp forest. Spoiler alert: MPAs work!!👏 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Fully protected #Calif #MPAs significantly enhance #kelp forests' resistance to and recovery from marine #heatwaves in Southern California. kudos Joy Kumagai, Giulio De Leo, @nurad.bsky.social @stanfordhopkins.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... #MarineLife #ocean #fishery

Beautiful day to dive in the kelp forest at Hopkins Marine Station! 🌊🤿 Thanks to dive buddies @nurad.bsky.social & Caro Olguín Jacobson!

1/5 Important new paper @globalchangebio.bsky.social: Evidence shows a network of marine protected areas (#MPAs) provides resilience to #marineheatwave impacts for #kelpforests in southern California. MPAs can be an effective #climateadaptation tool. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

New publication in TREE @cp-trendsecolevo.bsky.social Given the political momentum for greater nature protection and restoration articulated in the targets of the Global Biodiversity Framework, we assessed the state-of-the-art of Systematic Conservation Planning. www.cell.com/trends/ecolo...

Just published in TREE! Advances in systematic #ConservationPlanning to meet global #biodiversity goals. 💡New tools improve resource allocation & decision-making, but trust-building is key for adoption. Future SCP must address trade-offs & uncertainties. www.cell.com/trends/ecolo... 🌍🌐🧪 #MarinePlan

Marine heat wave confirmed cause of death for 4 million birds (Common Murres) in 2016. Half of Alaska’s Common Murre population at the time. Largest documented animal die-off in modern history. As little as 2C temp increase drastically their altered food chain. 🧪🌎🦉 www.science.org/content/arti...

First post! New Letter. Kelp forests support biodiversity & livelihoods along 30% of the coasts. However, ~3% are fully protected despite being highly threatened. We call for nations to protect 30% of their kelp by 2030. @hugepossum.bsky.social @uq-cbcs.bsky.social science.org/doi/10.1126/...
