Excited to announce I am starting a new position with the South Australian government as a Marine Biogeochemist! Excited to get started and be a part of the amazing research this organization does.
Check it out in ICES Journal of Marine Science:

Our study shows that portable X-ray fluorescence can pick up unique elemental fingerprints for different marlin species — a fast, non-destructive tool that could help crack down on mislabelled seafood and support better fisheries management.
🧪 Fast, field-ready, and no lab required.
🚨 New paper out today! 🚨
We tested whether you can ID marlin species just by scanning their fin spines with a handheld XRF scanner — and turns out, you (mostly) can. 🐟🔬💥🧪
@fao.org released their 2025 report on the status of marine fisheries resources (openknowledge.fao.org/items/ac6d51...).
In talking to the media about the report at #UNOC FAO stated that ~57% of sharks stocks are sustainably fished (t.co/fVFnZkY4vQ).
This fact is WRONG

Finishing up 2 weeks of field work on Wreck Island in the great barrier reef! Really rewarding opportunity studying nesting green and loggerhead sea turtles on a remote island with such lovely people! 🧪🐢
How fun is this? Here is my research focus generated through a word cloud! shiny.rcg.sfu.ca/u/rdmorin/sc... 🦈🦈🦈
Loéva Martin-Podevin showing us how AI can be used to survey recreational fishing in New South Wales. Really cool approach to a very complicated issue @austsocfishbiol.bsky.social #asfb2024

Had a great time last night presenting some visual ecology work on sawsharks from my PhD at #asfb2024.
Excited for four days of fish science talks at #asfb2024!
