Reconstructing Australia’s great southern shellfish reef will be good for fishing, good for climate change and fabulous for biodiversity. Everyone is a winner. – at Brisbane, Queensland

Vitamin Sea! The importance of Blue spaces - “Proximity to water – especially the sea – is associated with many positive measures of physical and mental wellbeing, from higher levels of vitamin D to better social relations” 🌊 @freestater @MCSCharlotte theguardian.com/lifeandstyle…

Sounds like Florida needs some more mangroves, shellfish reef, coral and sea grass to hold those lovely beaches in place. – at Brisbane, Queensland
Since the 1950s, Florida authorities have spent $1.3 billion periodically bringing in sand. Despite a huge effort, nearly half the state’s 825 miles of beaches are now considered “critically eroded”. @guardian reports: theguardian.com/us-news/2019…

Great to get back out in the field with @JPrestonDiggles honours project students last week! Surveying the area for #nativeoyster & #pacificoyster populations to see how they are interacting, if any Pacifics contain #microplastics & what disease status is🐚🐟💪🏼📸 @uopskipper

Our new research shows that Sydney rock oyster (Saccostrea glomerata) reefs support five times the invertebrate productivity than the bare sediments that replace them - lots more food for fish if we restore reefs publish.csiro.au/MF/MF18197

A cat at a bat exit point waiting to catch its prey. The bats exit the cave at sunset. Each cat catch atleast 15 bats/night and approx (15× 365) 5,475/ year. Most bat species have 1pup/ year. That's why we intervene and protect them before they get extinct. @camtraplive – at Jamaica

Small eels eating plankton that floats past. This behaviour also hides them from predators as they look like seaweed.

Restoration of the flat oyster: toward a very simple solution? below is a photo of flat oysters naturally recruited during the summer of 2018 on a metal structure. They now reach the age of 14 months, measure more than 5 cm in diameter & still no mortality... to be continued...😉

In recent years, scientists have used living shorelines and stone reefs to slow erosion and create habitat for wildlife. On the Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge, one such project has proven successful on both counts. #NationalWildlifeRefugeWeek chesapeakebay.net/news/blog/…
