Great timing to spend a week in Berlin discussing some of the most pressing issues facing our world and listening to those who are finding solutions
Thank you @lindaunobel @Falling_Walls and @MSCActions for the opportunity

In 2022, global fossil fuel subsidies were $7 trillion or the equivalent of 7.1% of global gross domestic product (GDP).
We effectively PAY oil and gas companies $7trillion every year to create this kind of damage and suffering ....but we can't afford to reduce emissions? 🧐

Just casually thousands of my favourite sharks chilling together 😎😯🦈
Scientists on SARDI research vessel have discovered thousands of sleepy Port Jackson sharks blanketing the seafloor in deep (65m+) waters of the Bass Straight. Captured by a ROV, researchers noted that the gathering appeared to be exclusively female.

To think where I was this time last year... thankyou @ISBW15_WSC24 for helping me to find my love for science and seagrass again.
The seagrass research community is inspiring, I am grateful to be a part of it 🙏
Thanks to @MSCActions for the opportunity!
See you next time 🌱🌱

It's been a couple of years in the making but I am finally off to Spain for my @MSCActions postdoc fellowship!
Beyond excited to work with @oserranogras and @ceabcsic to look at long term biodiversity changes in the Mediterranean Sea using #eDNA 🇪🇦

💚Inspiring research by marine scientist Nicole Foster shows that subtidal seagrasses were replaced by intertidal mangroves 1,000 years ago on Torrens Island, South Australia

📢 New paper!
We reconstructed 4000 years of historical vegetation using #eDNA targeted capture and #isotopes.
We found an #ecosystem shift happened 1000 years ago when the #seagrass environment changed to intertidal #mangroves.
Thank you to all who helped get this out there!

Devastated by the scale of the rejection. A chance for Australia to try to make things better for the small but historically marginalised First Nations’ community in our country, all at no cost to the majority. And yet that vast majority have rejected it.
A simple generous act to recognise and give a #VoiceToParliament to those who have long suffered in our country to better advise government about ways their lives can be improved. Please #VoteYes fellow Aussies and let us make this a better nation for all our citizens #Yes23

We are so excited that today is the first day of our MarineGEO Network Meeting. 55 partners from around the world are meeting @SmithsonianEnv for the first time since the pandemic. So far we have spent time getting to know one another and hearing from each of our observatories.

Exciting news! My first PhD paper is out in Environmental DNA! 🧬
It provides an accessible way to visualize methodological aspects and understand the current applications of eDNA/eRNA in community ecology! @jordanmcasey @NicoleRFoster @TheCaseyLab

FINALLY got this work published 🥳
Ever wondered if we can use dust to see were a person has travelled??
We used eDNA and geochemistry signals from dust to find this out!
