We look forward to hosting Dr Irvine at @minderoo @ExmouthResearch Lab this migration season to continue the long-term monitoring program of this iconic species. The team is investigating the effects of climate change on humpback whale health. 🐋🔗 https://t.co/nHqcl468bB

The humpies are on their way! 🐋🌏😍 Earlier this week Dr @lyn_irvine, from @imfr, joined Dom Knight and Dr Vanessa Pirotta on @ABCNightlife to chat about all things humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae). Listen to the audio here🎧 https://t.co/Iyif1o1lA8

Thank you @ARC for the incredible support! 🌊🪸 Coral reefs and the services they provide are critical to protect. We must do more to combat the #climatecrisis and understand reef pathways for adaptation to climate change. #ClimateScience #CoralReefs #ARCResearch
How fast will the corals in our reefs adapt to the effects of climate change? Dr Kate Quigley (@la__cientifica) from @jcu is using her years of experience as a molecular ecologist and the support of an ARC DECRA fellowship to find out. More: https://t.co/HrZe56Kmxn

Little or no #coralbleaching at WA’s oceanic reefs😅 Scientists surveyed the reefs after satellite monitoring early in summer indicated water temps were building to levels associated with mass bleaching. Cyclones + storms likely cooled waters. More ➡️ https://t.co/WXefxjbvgR

The largest ray in the world, the oceanic manta, is seen feeding in the blue of Nyinggulu. Ningaloo and Exmouth Gulf support a core population of reef manta rays, whereas oceanics are migratory, and we have so much to learn about this endangered species. 📽️ @louisrichter

Happy International Day for Biological Diversity🌿🌊 Thanks @protectningaloo for sharing incredible footage from the precious habitats we are working to conserve. Let's celebrate and protect the biodiversity that exists in the #ExmouthGulf and #NingalooReef today and every day.
Exmouth Gulf supports an abundance of life. From habitats like mangroves, corals and sponges to humpback whales nursing their calves, manta rays, reef sharks and hundreds of species of fish. #InternationalDayforBiologicalDiversity 📽️ footage by @bluemediaexmouth

⏱The countdown is on! See @AlexandraKler and @la__cientifica at @AustCoralReefs in just under an hour! 🪸The topic: selective breeding for coral babies to cope with increasing ocean temps on the Nyinggulu @minderoo @ExmouthResearch
Tomorrow (07/05) at @AustCoralReefs join @la__cientifica and myself to discover what selective breeding can do for coral babies 🪸 to survive intense heat🌡️ in Ningaloo @UNESCO World Heritage Area. Session 1.2, Seminar Room 2, 11:30. Thanks to @minderoo and @ExmouthResearch

What a treat to host Ambassador Kennedy at the @minderoo @ExmouthResearch Lab last week! An amazing opportunity to showcase the incredible science being conducted by the coral spawning team from @minderoo @jcu and @uwaoceans on the Nyinggulu Reef 🪸🧬
🪼 @minderoo’s Exmouth Research Lab brings together scientists from Australia, the U.S., and worldwide to improve reef health. They're identifying heat-resistant coral, tracking water temperatures, monitoring species, working with @MarsGlobal on reef restoration, and much more.

We've had a incredible 10 days collecting #eDNA water samples to detect critically important #elasmobranchs in the Exmouth Gulf! A big thank you to the TOs and Exmouth locals for their extraordinary engagement in the project! @Science_DBCA, @ExmouthResearch @MurdochUni
