Impacts of marine heatwaves on biodiversity and ecosystem services: our new paper in Nature Reviews Biodiversity is out!

Habitat dependency of kelp forest species. Spider plots represent the set of indicator values for each species, where the HDI is the weighted average (ยฑ standard deviation of the estimated values). Shaded green areas within the plot corresponds with the Habitat Dependency Index.
Habitat Dependency Index: our recent paper outlines a new method to quantify and contrast how much individual species in a community depend on their habitat. Extensive examples with #kelp forest species. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @uwaoceans.bsky.social
More but smaller: our new paper show how historical #overfishing and contemporary #marineheatwaves combine to exacerbate the truncation of fish sizes in kelp forests

An increase in marine heatwaves over the past 2 years caused billions of dollars of damage around the world according to an international team of researchers including the OI's ๐๐ฟ ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป ๐๐ถ๐น๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฒ-๐๐ฒ๐

If you swim in the ocean today chances are youโll brush against this. cosmosmagazine.com/earth/oceans...
With #kelpforests in many places declining 1-2%/year, the current rate of #restoration is far from matching the rate of degradation.
โIt would be much cheaper and by far more efficient to avoid loss to start withโ explained @twernberg.bsky.social

โOur shared scientific fascination with the #GreatSouthernReef has grown over decades, yet we've often operated in isolation," @twernberg.bsky.social reflects. "Now, through the GSR Research Partnership, we can unite our collaborative efforts and that is the exciting momentum we need.โ
โSpending time underwater observing the kelp forests in real time is critical to our ability to ask the right questionsโ. Discover how
@twernberg.bsky.social's fieldwork, mentorship & collaborative vision are shaping the future of #kelpforest conservation. greatsouthernreef.com/thomas-wernb...
Congrats Graeme, well deserved!! Often forgotten that even those that seem to win usually have many (!!) more rejections that no one ever hears about.
Golden #kelp Ecklonia radiata and some associated fauna, Jurien Bay, Western Australia, for #phycologyfriday. Our golden kelp is warm tolerant but has suffered extensive decline due an extreme #marineheatwave @uwaoceans.bsky.social @greatsouthernreef.bsky.social

Impressed by the many delegates, pavilions, events and ways that people engage - but not impressed by how little we have moved forward towards limiting climate change.
