I was able to attend the UK Seagrass Symposium this past week, and present my MSc dissertation and my work with @projectseagrass.bsky.social. It was incredible to be a part of putting this conference on and to get to see all the @sosbangor.bsky.social students who are working in seagrass!

Happy World Seagrass Day 2025! 🌱

This World Seagrass Day we’ll be shining a spotlight on Water Quality.

There's still time to sign up to for our webinar on Thursday 6th March where we’ll be discussing how water quality is impacting seagrass and what we can do about it: ow.ly/j64i50V48jU

We found positive interactions between eelgrass and oysters in co-culture in ambient conditions. Interactions break down under future conditions (warming, OA, or both).

Hi all! My name is Bridget, I'm a research assistant with Project Seagrass in the UK. I just finished my MSc in marine biology on #seagrass 🌱, functional traits 🐛, and carbon storage 🪴. I'm originally from the US and did my BA at Bowdoin College in 2023. Excited to be here and chat #MarineEcology!
