It was such an honor to work on this coastal vulnerability project during my undergrad. What a great team!! Check out the paper and blog.
We assessed coastal vulnerability @GTMReserve & ran engagement workshops to ID how land management knowledge gaps can best be filled by our science. See the paper & a blog post by lead Gregg Verutes @blueforestorg via @PeerJLife.

A really nice feature!! Is cringing when you hear your own voice a human hallmark?.
How many @URIGSO researchers does it take to build a fleet of six cutting-edge deep-sea landers? Coral reef specialist Andrew Davies and his team are planning use this fleet to see how deep-sea coral reefs are faring today, over a decade since the spill in the Gulf of Mexico. 1/

Sharing for #CoralsWeek.
🐠#URIGSO Ph.D. student @PhilipFYang is exploring little-known mesophotic coral ecosystems at depths of 30 to 150 meters in the Gulf of Mexico. Last summer, benthic landers were deployed near Desoto Rim as part of the @NOAA Mesophotic and Deep Benthic Communities (MDBC) project⬇️

Chief Scientist Roxanne Beinart and her team will voyage to the Galápagos, not to revisit the original discovery site, but to uncover the mysteries of unexplored hydrothermal vents at the Western...
The first #GalápagosVents dive is tonight! Subscribe on YouTube and hit the notification button to get updated when ROV SuBastian goes live. The team will dive on the Iguanas Vent Field off the Western Galápagos.

Feeling so blessed and thankful to all those that have helped me get here. Especially those @VU_Biology and @Fulbright_PH (where this picture was taken)!.
🪸 #URIGSO Ph.D. student @PhilipFYang has been named a 2023 Dr. Nancy Foster Scholar by @NOAA @sanctuaries. His research will focus on mesophotic coral reefs in the Gulf of Mexico with @anddavies' Marine Ecology and Technology Lab. Congrats, Philip! .

Thank you, Tricia!! 🪸 OR 🦠 (they need to make an actual plankton emoji!).
Happy #PhytoPhriday! It's been fun to see where @PhilipFYang's curiosity and research has taken him @URIGSO. Learn more about him and his interests here! While not #plankton, I guess coral are pretty cool too😆.

Thanks for the feature!!.
From grasslands ➡️ to wetlands?! Before studying coral reefs at #URIGSO, Ph.D. student @PhilipFYang was a biological science technician for the US Forest Service in Rapid City, South Dakota. Meet Philip in this week's #GTKGSO!

Congrats to all my co-authors, particularly @nicole_spanier. It was quite the journey! If you are wondering how microbes will respond to our changing world, check out my first paper here:
What started as a class paper on the biogeography of microbial function blossomed into a conceptual model on how the world operates. Congrats to first-time first author @PhilipFYang and the rest of the undergrad team.

It was an awesome feeling to go vote yesterday on something that will create a big impact for ocean research here in RI. I only just got here, and I’m really excited for what’s next @URIGSO.
Thank you Rhode Island for believing and investing in the potential of the @universityofri Narragansett Bay Campus and your ocean workforce. 🌎 @URIGSO @URIEngineering @uricels
