An extraordinary marine heatwave has developed off the east coast of Canada, with hundreds of thousands of square miles of ocean experiencing sea surface temperatures more than 5°C (9°F) above normal and max anomalies approaching 10°C (18°F) above normal. Thermal stress from

The climate crisis is pushing global temperatures 'off the chart’. Unprecedented heat waves are hitting the Mediterranean Sea, a marine biodiversity hotspot (thanks to Posidonia 😉). 'Seagrasses in the Anthropocene' is the theme of the next #isbw15. See you all in Napoli!

Dear friends, please read this paper. It will be the topic of conversation when I next see you. Best regards, Siti #science #seagrass #Restoration

New paper out with @BuapetPimchanok and Yan Xiang! https://t.co/yShUZVCrJ0 #seagrass #resilience

Chek Jawa is my favourite Seagrass habitat in SG. The end bit about managing ecological resilience is key. Thanks @ClaraLeeCNA for the fun interview!

This analogy hits the nail on the head. Academia is broken and surely the best and the brightest in it can come up with a better system? Or are we happy to keep up the exploitation so those at the top stay well-fed and watered? #AcademicTwitter #academiaisbroken

I did a magazine thing and now #seagrass is featured in Harper's BAZAAR (and no, not as a woven basket) https://t.co/8zHbZI1tPD #sustainability #naturebasedsolutions

Once decimated by disease, eelgrass is now recovering after a decades-long restoration in Virginia. Since it's returned the water is clearer, wildlife has returned & carbon & nitrogen sequestration rates are back at levels seen in undisturbed ecosystems. https://t.co/Hpw7I3o2DK

Pretty sure that that's a #Seagrass meadow on the cover of the 2021 @ConservationOrg calendar. Is this the year we #showseagrasssomelove ? 😏

Seagrass restoration and transplantation gets a bad rep. So here’s a success story to share #habitatrestoration #seagrass

A green recovery for Singapore needs to be both climate and biodiversity inclusive. All too often green initiatives leave out the biodiversity factor; carbon neutral ≠ biodiversity neutral. #biodiversitymatters

Why Fund Managers Started Worrying About Biodiversity: The destruction of the planet’s biodiversity poses huge economic risks. That realization is bringing biodiversity the same kind of attention among investors that has been building around climate. https://t.co/M6pukb5osv

Beautiful article on the value of seagrass ecosystems with incredible photographs by @ShaneGrossPhoto

“Seagrasses are the forgotten ecosystem,” Ronald Jumeau, a United Nations representative from the Republic of Seychelles, writes in a 2020 U.N. report. https://t.co/PGJSUztdhh #seagrass #climatechange

My second PhD data chapter is published 🎉 🌱We looked at how herbivores (🐢🐟🦞) can structure a subtropical #seagrass meadow in the GBR 🐢We found that green turtles/dugongs were structuring the seagrass here and they had a big impact on the meadow 📰 https://t.co/jzhnVMBCyH

That’s a shameful and petty response from someone so lauded. #diversitymatters

And while we are talking about representation... #diversitymatters

This publication sure struck a nerve. Sure I had more male mentors in academic career, but there were SO FEW women in academia overall. Since then I’ve found that my female professional relationships are the ones I rely on to get sh*t done.

And back to seagrass: The globally Vulnerable #seagrass species Halophila beccarii can be found at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve.
