Biodiversity-Ecosystem Functioning: Increased species diversity does not increase the productivity of cultivated kelp AbstractBackground and aims. Biodiversity is often assumed to underpin rates of ecosystem functioning and their associated ecosystem services. Manipulative

🌍However, multi-species assemblages may still enhance stability of biomass production, especially under future environmental change. (9/9)

#Kelpfarming is being pursued by indigenous in AK & Canada for several reasons: ecological balance/economic improvement/renewable food source. Kelp farms serve as nurseries for juvenile fish, provide habitat for countless other marine species, & act as natural water filters

Despite the chaos swirling at the national level, good science still persists and thrives. A new project in collaboration with our Tribal partners at the Alutiiq Pride Marine Institute in Seward, AK will commence next week. #mariculture #kelpfarming

Exploring regional differences in kelp growth

Kelp farming has completely captured my interest lately! Especially after I took the introduction to seaweed course on coursera.

Its environmental benefits & beauty are so inspiring. Hoping to visit a kelp farm someday and see this amazing process up close! #KelpFarming #Aquaculture

Hey Bluesky! I’m an oyster and kelp farmer in Maine. I haven’t seen much aquaculture content here yet, so here’s a quick video of seeding my kelp farm recently. Seed line is densely covered in tiny kelp sporophytes. By May they will grow 6-8 feet long!
