A research conducted by Dr Celia SCHUNTER from @HKUSBS and @SWIMSHKU shows that fish species which have evolved more rapidly in the past are equipped with better means to cope with increased ocean acidification across the globe: bit.ly/3nHgMVZ

If you are going to the oceans in a high CO2 world and want to learn more about multidriver experimentation, please attend this workshop. I cannot attend, but colleagues Christina McGraw, Sam DuPont, and my postdoc Erik Krieger will all be there to discuss solutions
Ocean acidification is one of many stressors acting on marine organisms at the same time. Learn about “Designing multiple driver experiments” in an ocean acidification context in this @Highco2L
workshop hosted and sponsored by @SCOR_Int

Paper accepted with revisions, but “native language revisions needed” - in a review full of language issues … paper written by 4 native speakers, just the first author has an African affiliation…
Get a grip lads, and write a proper review

How do #marine microbes cope with environmental change? @bovernsuchart & @ZhenzhenLi14 discuss some of the #ecological & #evolutionary mechanisms involved in this new @iBEER_LAB pub! Empirical testing coming soon! Congrats guys!! @SWIMSHKU
Super excited to finally see my first-ever publication making it onto the web. Thanks to the super amazing SV-ever @JDGaitanEspitia and the great @ZhenzhenLi14 for their guidance and support throughout the process. Do check out our review about:frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

Sunscreen isn't banned in Australia because there is no evidence (outside of a test-tube) that it causes coral bleaching.
BTW - Australia and its coral reefs are already experiencing huge impacts from anthropogenic heating.
“But it’s distracting from climate change!”
I see US & Australian academics downplaying benzophenone toxicity, while it’s taken more seriously in Central America & SE Asia. In other words, countries most directly impacted by climate change are the ones regulating sunscreen.
