*concentrations of mercury ARE increasing...The typo is killing me...😭

📣New paper out today! We’ve found concentrations of mercury in UK-harbour porpoises is increasing. 📈🐬 We also found concentrations of mercury were associated with an increased risk of dying from infectious disease.☠️ pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

You can read more about our new paper which shows levels of mercury are increasing in UK-stranded harbour porpoises here theconversation.com/mercury-poll... @strandings-man.bsky.social

🚨New Paper🚨 Excited to share my latest @sbohvm.gla.ac.uk PhD research with @strandings.bsky.social which used machine learning to reveal patterns in harbour porpoise pathology, showing how necropsy data can provide population level insights into cetacean health 👉 doi.org/10.1002/ece3...

📢 New paper out! Cetacean strandings in Scotland have risen 125% over the past 30 years. Our study gives the first comprehensive picture of when, where, and which species strand, providing a baseline to guide conservation. 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41... @sbohvm.gla.ac.uk @strandings.bsky.social

Super happy to see our new article on how pharmaceutical pollution can influence salmon migration out in @science.org! This was a huge effort by a great team of researchers over the last few years! You can read the paper here: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…!

🐬Analysis of 836 UK-stranded common dolphins found that PCB concentration & sea temperature are linked to increased risk of infectious disease death, highlighting the need for integrated strategies to address these threats @rosiewilliams.bsky.social @zslscience.bsky.social doi.org/10.1038/s420...

🛢️ Oil spills are terrible for the #ocean, but how exactly do they affect marine #wildlife? 🐋 How does oil #pollution impact human health? 🩺 🔍 We find out exactly that and more in our latest blog with research scientist, Dr @rosiewilliams.bsky.social. 1/2 📰👉 uk.oceana.org/blog/a-toxic...

📢New paper! Why are we seeing an increase in infectious disease cases in UK-stranded common dolphins?🐬☠️ We found sea surface temperature and pollution are both associated with an increased risk of dying from infectious disease. 🔗https://tinyurl.com/3beckuaz Published in @commsbio.bsky.social
