A special moment for BioNept today as @lorenzocozzolino.bsky.social moves on after 8 years with the group!
Thanks for the dedication, curiosity, and many hours of research and fieldwork. 🌊🪨
Excited to see what comes next! 🚀

BioNept Intertidal Moroccan Tour 2026 🌊🦪🇲🇦
Back to work on intertidal rocky shores along this stunning stretch of coast. 🌊🦀🦪

Essaouira, Morocco — here we go again 🌊🇲🇦
After heavy rain, clay-rich, iron-bearing soils from inland wash into the sea, turning coastal waters red.
Land and ocean, tightly linked.

More than just a shell!
Our new research shows these #mussel #holobionts are actually net #CO₂ sinks. A game-changer for how we view species interactions in the coastal systems!

Great energy yesterday at the Marine Station of @univlille.bsky.social!
We were thrilled to welcome the Parlement des Jeunes pour l’Eau, in partnership with the Agence de l’Eau, for a hands-on look at how we study and monitor plastic pollution. 🌊🔬

Wrapping up a great week of intertidal fieldwork — boots full of seawater, hands full of samples, and loggers full of data! 🌊🦪📊

So long from the Moroccan intertidal 🇲🇦 — heading back to France 🇫🇷
Last snapshot: three tide pools side by side — perfect little replicates.
