Keira Monuki

Go Zoe!! So excited to see all the amazing things you do in the future!

Join us for the 2024 Bodega Marine Lab Seminar Series! Our new season of seminars begins on 5/15 at 3pm with "Changing Coastlines: From Ecology to Physiology", presented by @racine_rangel, a postdoctoral scholar at UC Santa Cruz. Register through Zoom: ucdavis.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

Sahil Prasad, a student at @santarosajc, spent last summer interning at the @ucdavis Bodega Marine Laboratory. Sahil worked in the Coastal Health and Nearshore Geochemistry (CHANGE) Lab with Dr. @AlyssaJGriffin, Manuel Delgado, and fellow interns. marinescience.ucdavis.edu/blog/unravelin…

Ry Ulmer-Strack, a student at @santarosajc, spent last summer interning at the @ucdavis Bodega Marine Laboratory, working in the @whiteabalone Lab under the guidance of Dr. Lauren Ashlock to care for critically endangered white #abalone. marinescience.ucdavis.edu/blog/working-w…

Patrick Phengsy, a student at @santarosajc, spent last summer interning at the @ucdavis Bodega Marine Lab, working with mentor @kericksonbio and @DrAnyaBrown's lab to extract and analyze DNA in Eelgrass samples from Tomales Bay marinescience.ucdavis.edu/blog/dive-gene…

Kevin Witt, a student at @santarosajc, spent last summer interning at the @ucdavis Bodega Marine Lab, working with his mentor to prepare an experiment to study the feasibility of using #aquaculture to grow gooseneck barnacles: marinescience.ucdavis.edu/blog/how-grow-…

Kamryn Conway, a student at @santarosajc, spent last summer interning at the @ucdavis Bodega Marine Laboratory. Kamryn worked with mentor @KMonuki to gather data on the correlation between temperature and signs of environmental stress in marine snail eggs. marinescience.ucdavis.edu/blog/studying-…

Bailey Glashan, a student at @santarosajc, spent last summer interning at the @ucdavis Bodega Marine Lab. Bailey worked with Luis Morales to control invasive species on the Bodega Marine Reserve and conducted a research project surveying native bees: buff.ly/3uWXZgu

Guess who's coming to dinner? #Seagrass meadows offer habitat and refuge for many marine organisms, but that also makes them appealing to a variety of predators. Fish, fowl, decapods, & pinnipeds all frequent seagrasses looking for a meal among the meadows. #WorldSeagrassDay 1/5

Serina Moheed - @MoheedSerina, a PhD student in the Stachowicz Lab in @ucdavisbiology, monitors #seagrasswastingdisease in Northern CA, investigating whether there are multiple strains of the slime-mold pathogen in the Bodega & Tomales Bay estuaries. #WorldSeagrassDay 1/4

We love the way this painted postcard captures the beauty of the Bodega Marine Reserve! Jacquie Rajerison (@ucdavis Class of '21) created it while working with the Sanford Lab in the summer of 2022.

Congratulations to @ucdavisbiology Professor Eric Sanford, who was recently chosen as Naturalist of the Year by the Western Society of Naturalists: marinescience.ucdavis.edu/news/eric-sanf… 📸: Jackie Sones

#WSN2023 was an amazing experience of catching up with with my marine ecology friends, making new connections, and learning! I donated art for the silent auction- and now it has a new home! It was an honor to have my #cuttlefishart featured in the Naturalist of the Year talk!!

Researchers from @ucdavis, including @KMonuki, a 4th PhD. candidate, are surveying a species of non-native #anemone found in Tomales Bay to better understand the possible impacts and interactions it may have with local species. More from @NorthBayNews: buff.ly/3MvQ8ME

Want to know about an invasive anemone to Tomales Bay? Ask @KMonuki and listen to her interview! Way to go Keira!

Congratulations to Dr. Emily Longman, who delivered her exit seminar, "Drilling Deeper: Exploring Local Adaptation and Eco-evolutionary Dynamics in a Rocky Shore Community" at the @ucdavis Bodega Marine Laboratory a few days ago! 🎉🍾🥂 #PhDone #PhinisheD

👆🏾🦈 Check out what Jaqueline was up to during her summer fellowship with @A_Whiteshark! Read her (& other past fellows') full fellowship reflection on our website buff.ly/3i3ZDTf

Undergraduate students studying #marinescience at @ucdavis work around the tides: wading into mudflats and #eelgrass meadows to gather samples during low tide, then analyzing them to conduct independent research projects at the Bodega Marine Laboratory: ucdavis.edu/student-resear…

Meet Dr. @AlyssaJGriffin, the principal investigator of the CHANGE Lab at @ucdavis. She uses marine #geochemistry to study changing ecosystems, build climate resiliency, and serve others through science. Learn more in this video from @norcalpublic: youtube.com/watch?v=vL68pW…

@racine_rangel @ucsc Woohoo!!!! 🎉🎉

Excited to share that I am settling in at @UCSC’s coastal campus as a #UCPPFP postdoc in the Kroeker lab - New research projects coming soon!
