Hi folks. I've migrated to bluesky @petemumby.bsky.social to avoid the right wing nonsense promoted by the owner of X. I'll keep this for now. See you there! And happy New year!

Allee effects require corals to lie within a few metres of their neighbours to achieve successful fertilisation. https://t.co/YXsOS7yuTE open access @GerardRicardo01 @ChrisDorop @PICRCPalau

Research led by #UQ reveals 10 metres is crucial for coral spawning, after that the chance of success declines rapidly. Prof @petemumby says climate change impacts are reducing coral density and if specimens end up too far apart, they won't reproduce. https://t.co/dOC6klHHRD

Can coral adapt fast enough to cope with warming oceans? #UQ's Professor @petemumby and a team of international researchers modelled the impact of different scenarios of climate change on coral to find out and the result was mixed. @UQScience🐠 https://t.co/RNwmQEqtPu

🌿🐟 #Galapagos mangroves are vital reef #fishnurseries. Juvenile fish thrive in these habitats, boosting populations of key reef species. 🌊Protecting mangroves is crucial for marine conservation & fisheries management! #conservation

Out today in Biology Letters! https://t.co/AalAQ4KF5j Our #NewPaper documents decade-long behavioural change at a #spawningsite, showing how #fishing disrupts squaretail grouper mating behaviours, causing them to flee w fear, rather than fight w competitors or flirt w mates.

Some deeper areas of the Great Barrier Reef are insulated from harmful heatwaves .. but researchers from @UQScience and @UniofExeter say that protection will be lost if global warming continues. 🔗 https://t.co/yZwJWlstzk

Pocilloporid stock-recruitment relationships exist at a small scale, and seem to be impacted by thermal stress. Thanks @petemumby for the exciting collab...stay tuned for more cool research from this reef tract! 🪸 @PICRCPalau
