Cool article on our PhD student Annabell Klinke's research, asking are fish less smart on less structurally complex reefs? womenlovetech.com/world-first-... @lec-reefs.bsky.social

Nice to have a bit of good news to share with my students as we kick off the new academic year! @exetermarine.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

At yesterday's 80th @UN General Assembly, the High Seas Treaty was FINALLY ratified! 🌊 🦑 Aka the Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdictions (BBNJ) Agreement, it now officially enters into force in 120 days, becoming international law in Jan 2026. highseasalliance.org/treaty-ratif...

🚨 NEW: Climate change is already causing 30,000 deaths per year - a global annual economic loss of $100-350B USD - but the true damage is probably 10x higher. Out TODAY in Nature Climate Change: the first systematic look at the science of "health impact attribution" 🔓 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Interesting findings from @samuelmacaulay.bsky.social presenting his findings with MRES students on enhanced rock weathering as a Carbon Dioxide Removal tool and it's effects on riverine benthic species under experimental conditions with addition of rock material 👍🏻 #BlueCarbon #CDR

Great talk from @drplanktonpoo.bsky.social Krill Poo may sequester as much #carbon as mangroves AND we're messing that up by fishing them out. The fishery near Antarctica shut early for the first time ever due to record catch numbers (because of more fishing) @bes-aquaticgroup.bsky.social

I have an MRC-funded PhD project available (www.exeter.ac.uk/study/fundin...) on how warming will change the problem of AMR. Join a small and friendly group (padpadpadpad.netlify.app/about) in (sometimes) sunny Cornwall. 🧪🦠 #microsky Please share the ad below with anyone who may be interested.

Come work with us… PDRA position to work on a host of exciting things! jobs.exeter.ac.uk/hrpr_webrecr... Get in touch if you want to know more

What a fun day. So honoured to be included in this list of incredible women! @exetermarine.bsky.social @gsiexeter.bsky.social www.womanandhome.com/life/inspira...

Listen to @benthicbecky.bsky.social speaking about our work, the role of benthic invertebrates on carbon cycling in Saguenay Fjord on CBC Quebec AM: www.cbc.ca/listen/live-... @jagodbold.bsky.social @ap3489.bsky.social @omparrish.bsky.social @cezzalew.bsky.social @philarchambault.bsky.social

Lovely news piece on CTV about our Convex Seascape Survey research in Saguenay.

On the telly covered in mud again 🤣🙄

Nice news piece on Canadian national news about our Convex SeascapeSurveywork. youtube.com/watch?v=DXhI... watch from 17:30 @exetermarine.bsky.social @gsiexeter.bsky.social

Grabbing muddy bottoms in Saguenay Fjord 🌊 We haul mud from 250 m down, in each a world of hidden life. In the lab we learn how they keep the seabed healthy 💙 @exetermarine.bsky.social @unisouthampton.bsky.social @benthicbecky.bsky.social @profbenthos.bsky.social @cezzalew.bsky.social @ulaval.ca

The #ConvexSeascapeSurvey is in Canada! A collaboration between @ulaval.ca @exetermarine.bsky.social and @unisouthampton.bsky.social is investigating the role of animals that live in mud on the #seafloor in helping bury #BlueCarbon and keep our #climate healthy.

Great team at Fjord Marine made sampling Saguenay Fjord in Quebec possible - two experiments running in the lab. Working with colleagues from the University of Laval and @exetermarine.bsky.social to investigate how benthic communities modify carbon.

Heading north to start a field campaign in Saguenay fjord in Quebec with @philarchambault.bsky.social, @[email protected], @omparrish.bsky.social, @cezzalew.bsky.social, @ap3489.bsky.social looking at benthic faunal contributions to carbon.

We are in Saguenay fjord, Canada for our next Convex Seascape Survey bioturbation experiment 😀 Working with colleagues from Southampton and Laval University. @exetermarine.bsky.social @gsiexeter.bsky.social

Yesterday I gave a talk to ECRs at the @igsoc.bsky.social @igs-egg.bsky.social conference @geogdurham.bsky.social @durhamglaciology.bsky.social on academic networking. My tips and tricks for academic networking for career success are here: www.antarcticglaciers.org/2025/07/stra... Anything to add?

Arrr I do love graduation day. Huge congratulations to all of our @exeter.ac.uk students graduating today! 🎊

Great team building day for our environment theme with this fab icebreaker bingo game over lunch.

Healthy planet, healthy people: scientists from planetary boundaries & planetary health call for a framework linking climate, biodiversity & pollution to health risks. New @thelancet.com comment by PIK director Johan Rockström, Oskar Masztalerz & Sam Myers. www.pik-potsdam.de/en/news/late...

ICYMI: New online! Marine heatwaves as hot spots of climate change and impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services

Let me remind you that #DinoConUK - Aug 16th-17th, University of Exeter - is going to be huge. Tickets are selling fast. Art exhibitions, talks, palaeoart workshops, panel discussions, the biggest number of dinosaur-themed vendors ever in the UK... info and more at www.dinocon.co.uk #dinosaurs

Definitely time for some vitamin sea 🥰

A fantastic day yesterday celebrating the incredible breadth of research across #ExeterMarine @exetermarine.bsky.social and catching up with everyone in the sunshine. And huge thanks to Prof Helen Findlay @plymouthmarine.bsky.social for our opening plenary.

It's the @exetermarine.bsky.social Summer Showcase!! A day for networking and sharing with our colleagues across our campuses as well as organisations we are lucky to work closely with including @zslscience.bsky.social @plymouthmarine.bsky.social DEFRA and The Marine Biological Assc. @exeter.ac.uk

New global review in Nature Reviews Biodiversity, incl. CCRC’s Alex Sen Gupta, shows marine heatwaves are reshaping ecosystems from coral bleaching to kelp loss disrupting fisheries,food webs & coastal livelihoods. Urgent need to cut emissions, build resilience & adapt fast. doi.org/10.1038/s443....

Nice article by Oceanographic magazine about our Galapagos plastics research programme. oceanographicmagazine.com/features/inv...

Great flash-mob. Morning by Edward Gried - and the timing as the train exits the tunnel into daylight is awesome. youtu.be/gww9_S4PNV0?...

Great poster evening for the @gsiexeter.bsky.social Exeter Climate Conference. We enjoyed sharing the Convex Seascape Survey with everyone. @ap3489.bsky.social

1°C of global warming does NOT mean that heatwaves 'just' get hotter by 1°C. Over large parts of the UK, global warming means that heatwaves are 3-4°C warmer, with worse consequences for people and ecosystems.

Another thought provoking plenary at the @gsiexeter.bsky.social Global Tipping Points conference with a stellar panel of amazing speakers.

New from @uaf-oarc-alaska.bsky.social : bg.copernicus.org/articles/22/... 🌊

In May 2021, a burning container ship off Sri Lanka’s coast spilled toxic chemicals & microplastics into the sea-the biggest plastic spill on record. Four years on, @watershed-i.bsky.social & @pulitzercenter.bsky.social uncover the lasting impacts with @BBC Listen👉 @BBCSounds shorturl.at/X560T

Great interview with Tim about Global Tipping Points. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Some fascinating discussions at the Global Tipping Points Conference here in Exeter this week! If you work on tipping points- and whether you're at the conference or not- check out our call for submissions! latitude.plos.org/2025/06/call... #GlobalTippingPointsConference #GlobalTippingPoints2025

Great watching our amazing @gsiexeter.bsky.social PhD student Dani Flor leading discussions at the Global Tipping Point conference session on positive social Tipping Points.

Happy #InternationalPolychaeteDay! There are over 13000 polychaete species that have been described – so take a moment to appreciate these segmented worms. Most of them are marine worms, often living in the benthic zone, and they are stunners! www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/33543710

Happy #InternationalPolychaeteDay 😀 Sharing this incredible lungworm painted by Convex Seascape Survey artist in residence @naomihart.bsky.social @exetermarine.bsky.social

Really cool to hear from Clare Ostle from the MBA Plymouth on her amazing work with the Continuous Plankton Recorder data looking for Tipping Points in ocean plankton communities.

"My Grandfather taught me 40 different words for types of rain in the Amazon, now we don't know if it will rain at all". Powerful messages from Brazil colleagues at the @gsiexeter.bsky.social Global Tipping Points conference this morning.

Full house for start of @gsiexeter.bsky.social Global Tipping Points conference at @exeter.ac.uk

Excited for the start of the @gsiexeter.bsky.social @exeter.ac.uk Tipping Points conference.

The #ExeterClimateForum will give voice to scientists whose work drives our understanding of the changing systems of our planet. It will include the Exeter Climate Conference, the second Global Tipping Points Conference, meetings of universities and events for policymakers and business leaders.

The seas of the Bahamas are beautiful but unfortunately also suffer from plastic pollution. Our @exetermarine.bsky.social students did a big beach clean after their snorkel survey.
