Post Doctoral Fellow @EvaAylagas is applying novel genetic techniques to characterize biological communities. This will produce indices and indicators of change in the marine environment. @KAUST_News #eDNA #RedSea twitter.com/EvaAylagas/sta…

Read about interannual variability of sea surface temperature in the Red Sea from 35 years of satellite and in situ observations @OceansClimateCU @bjones91104 twitter.com/OceansClimateC…

All sizes matter when aiming for the reliable conservation of reef biodiversity. Find out more about what is hidden in the coral reefs of the #RedSea using #ARMS at rdcu.be/O5Kf @IOP_Observatory @ReefEcologyLab @RSRC_KAUST @KAUST_News. Illustration by Xavier Pita

Emeritis Prof. Jacob Kalff of @mcgillu celebrates Prof. Carlos @duarteoceans accomplishments in marine biodiversity with friends and KAUST PhD student Zahra Alsaffar. @KAUST_NewsAR @RSRC_KAUST @zhsaffar twitter.com/zhsaffar/statu…

Prof. Carlos Duarte honored with the 1st Carlo Heip award for outstanding accomplishments in marine biodiversity at the World Conference on Marine Biodiversity in Montreal #WCMB2018

PhD student @zhsaffar participated in the mentoring project at the World Congress on Marine Biodiversity in Montreal. twitter.com/azivian/status…

Enjoying the great work of Zahra Alfassar @WCMB2018 on habitat fragmentation and Red Sea biodiversity

Collection day for my ASU units in a Red Sea seagrass meadow...with help from @ReefEcologyLab, @RSRC_KAUST and @IOP_Observatory folk! Now to sort and sequence the wee critters that have colonised them! #HabitatDegradation #Bioindicators #Fieldwork @SmithsonianSMS @KAUST_News

Molecular techniques allow @RSRC_KAUST researchers to scale up investigations of #RedSea planktonic communities. twitter.com/jkpearman45/st…

Giving #seagrass its due. #KAUST researchers have found evidence that seagrass meadows play a pivotal role in protecting coasts against rising sea levels. Read more about the new #research here. #ocean #climatechange #mangroves #coastalmanagement kaust.news/2BUtyJX

11,128 posters - only one from a #KAUST scientist on new methods for #HFRadar. Dr. Lohitzune Solabarietta presents at #EGU18 in Vienna.

Happy to find my name in a nice review looking at the use of #microbes to assess #stress in #coralreefecosystems @AngelBorjaYerro @naiara_re link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Off into the field to survey the fish associated with the different zones of last weeks benthic surveys! #FieldDay #CoralReefEcology #MarineScienceMAsters @RSRC_KAUST @KAUST_News PhotoCred: @RoyaleWithSeas

Something to consider for all isotope ecologists: especially if you’re reconstructing diet/ trophic level based on snapshot reference samples... nature.com/articles/s4155…

“The Red Sea corals are perfectly adapted to the #environmental stress of the Red Sea (heat and salinity). But if we were to expose Australia’s Great Barrier Reef to those same conditions 99% of the reef would die.” - Professor Michael Berumen, @RSRC_KAUST @ReefEcologyLab #KSLP
