Towards an integration of scale & complexity in marine ecol. Matches well w/ Menge # of panels v. time fig #WSN2015 http://bit.ly/1RTPvHT

Thanks to the @WSN_Secretariat and all at #WSN2015 for an amazing meeting! Next year in Monterey!

Gaines: the more that future demand for animal protein is met by sustainable food from the sea, the better for the planet. #wsn2015

Ford: 3.3 million urchins removed over 6k hours have led to phenomenal kelp recovery in Palos Verdes #wsn2015

Ford: showing urchin fishers that urchins in barrens are not marketable was key to getting buyin for restoration and urchin removal #wsn2015

Ford: if you are going to invite 10 million people to your home, you're going to lose so kelp (ah, LA) #wsn2015

.@jdunic climate change and invasives increase local marine species richness while eutrophication decreases over long term #wsn2015

Thanks to Katie Dobkoski for pointing out we kelpers work on "Charismatic Megaflora"! Yes! #wsn2015

Spyksma: urchin behaviour driven by combination of predator cues and food. Cool direct and indirect effects of predation. #wsn2015

Spyksma: urchins learn to recognize predator cues acclimate to hiding, even when no cue is present. #wsn2015

.@krumkir: many areas of the world, like the Arctic, critically under sampled for kelps #WSN2015

.@krumkir: to what extent does regional variability override global signals? #WSN2015

I think that was the first time Dr. Who showed up in a #WSN2015 talk! Awesome!

.@KristyKroeker mussel vulnerability to OA depends on food availability. Zones of compensation & zones of mismatch on W. Coast #WSN2015

Beheshti: high densities of burrowing crabs can also drive marsh die off in CA marshes by eating pickleweed roots. #WSN2015

.@PLNReynolds globally, amphipods are delicious. Sorry, snails. #WSN2015 #TheMoreYouKnow

.@PLNReynolds global correlation between Seagrams diversity and grazer abundance #WSN2015

.@PLNReynolds: global challenges require global approaches to ecology #WSN2015

Bell: many drivers have alternating positive and negative relationships with kelp. Must consider nonlinearities. #WSN2015

Bell: low waves have positive effect on giant kelps. Only becomes negative >2m wave height. #WSN2015

Freedman: western Channel Islands becoming increasingly tropical in their fish assemblage #WSN2015

Want to know the global status of kelps over the last 50 years? Come see @krumkir in salon a at 5pm #WSN2015 #kelplife

Morton: skeleton shrimp (caprellids) don't care about kelp. They are everywhere living their skeleton shrimp lives! #WSN2015

Morton: gammarid amphipod dynamics match giant kelp #WSN2015

Wait, they split grammarian amphipods into multiple suborders? Ach! #WSN2015 #suborderformallyknownasgammarids

Great feedback on @ted_lyman & @millerlp's open wave height logger at #WSN2015 last night! @UMassBoston @EnvSchool https://t.co/qhhIg2XLIR

Honoring the memory of @RafeSagarin at #WSN2015 with a new award in observational ecology.

Leslie: to address models coupling biology and economics with generality, you have to think at BIG spatial scales. #WSN2015

Navarette dispersal mediated coexistence may be a strong driver at regional scales - intriguing and many cool examples in Chile #WSN2015

Navarette: dispersal variability can drive coexistence of species when one is a competitive dominant. Cool Chilean mussel example. #WSN2015
