- Reposted by Laura-Li JeannotNew in @natrevbiodiv.nature.com: our review of the influence of #seabirds, via their nutrient transfer, on islands & adjacent marine ecosystems 🐦🏝️🪸 We highlight knowledge gaps & future directions ✨ "The circular seabird economy is critical for oceans, islands and people": doi.org/10.1038/s443...
- Reposted by Laura-Li JeannotSeabirds act as powerful connectors between marine and terrestrial ecosystems - and protecting them can help tackle the crises of climate change, failing ocean health, and biodiversity loss, according to a new study published in Nature Reviews Biodiversity 🐦
- It's apparently #WorldOctopusDay, so here's a tiny little fellow we unfortunately captured in our last fieldtrip in Chagos while looking for small fishes and other invertebrates. Hope all other three-hearted creatures have a better fate than his!

- Reposted by Laura-Li JeannotHeard of "Darwin's paradox"? It refers to Charles Darwin's observation that coral reefs are wildly productive despite occurring in nutrient-poor tropical oceans. Reefs are, so the story goes, oases in marine deserts 🏝️... Turns out that 2/3 of these assertions are very wrong... 🌐 🦑🧪 🧵⬇️

- New paper out in Proceedings B! 🔊 Seabirds' impacts on reefs extends even to some of its tiniest inhabitants - cryptobenthic reef fishes 🐠 Near colonies, these fishes assimilate seabird nutrients (💩), grow larger 📈 & more at: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... @royalsocietypublishing.org

- Reposted by Laura-Li Jeannot🚨Excited that the first chapter from my PhD is now out in Marine Biology. Here we show that #lionfish do not show any directional preferences for ambient #soundscapes during diurnal hours. 🔗link.springer.com/article/10.100… 🧵A thread to find out more:
- Had a blast at #RCUK2024!! Always a pleasure talking about seabirds and small fishes (and inverts this time too! 🦐) So amazing to be part of a group as vibrant and supportive as @lec-reefs.bsky.social 🐠🌊
