We're celebrating International Women's Day and some of our scientists. 🌱@kmpmcmahon is the Assoc Dean for Research and works on coastal biology and ecology. 🦠Dr Shaz is a Post Doc fellow and studies unique coastal places - her latest obsession is cyanobacterial mats.

Happy #WorldSeagrassDay! . We're all about seagrass in Western Australia. In case you haven't heard, the meadows in Shark Bay is home to the world's largest known plant on earth. 🌱🔬🐙🌊🐢🧬🦢🦐.More here:

Seagrass can be the line between heavy-metal contamination and safety. CMER's Anna Lafratta and collaborators from @ceabcsic @iaeaorg @ICTA_UAB @FlindersCSE @SAWaterCorp @SA_EPA explain in @hakaimagazine's article 🌱🚫⚠️.

Big conversations happening today about marine heatwaves in Western Australia at @FisheriesWA. Teamwork is making the dream, of proactively managing the ecological response to heatwaves, work 🔥🥵

2024 means finding new ways to protect our oceans. Our newest PhD student, Malmee Gangathilaka, plans to do just that by identifying how environmental drivers that influence productivity and ecosystem function of cyanobacterial mats in intertidal coastal ecosystems. More soon!

A postgraduate degree is no mean feat, it's a long and, often arduous, migration but this guy's done it ! Check out his thesis titled "A scientific basis for assisted gene migration under climate change" on the interwebs near you🌲🧬.

We left 2022's summer rollers and full spectrum rainbows behind and steamed ahead into 2023. There's been new collaborations, all female crews, ocean swims, dorky sun hats & standing up against pitiful research stipends. Pics & links to find out more:
