1st chilly 🥶 day of fieldwork for the biogeographic #befscale fucoid resilience project. Bit short on fucoids even in our control plots 😬 Electric Blue envloggers are a go for hourly 🌡️ data. Lodonnec tomorrow! Good luck @rubygeorge.bsky.social with your last batch of PhD data 📉 💪🏻

Would you like to know ALL the marine non-indigenous species in European seas 🌍 💡 🧪 ❔ Including those from countries outside the EU ?🐠 🏵️ 🦀 ? Would you like to know the native range of all these NIS 🌎 🌐 🌏 ? The freshly published ANIS-E and its Shiny App provide the answers! 👉 doi.org/10.1111/geb....

Trump administration orders NOAA scientists to halt all international work. Staff were told to stop meetings, discussions, emails with foreign colleagues. Freeze affects travel, virtual meetings, and collaborations until political appointees review them. 🐢🌍🧪🦑 www.opb.org/article/2025...

There is evidence that technologies like search engines and GPS maps can alter our ability to learn and remember. Nature reports how scientists are now working out what AI might do to our memories. 🧪
