Thanks to @abcnews, Scout Wallen and @jasminehines_ for shining a light on @OneTreeIslandRS. 50 years of outstanding research with @Sydney_Uni but it’s been a tough one for the reef. @Sydney_Science @BellaMarrable abc.net.au/news/2024-11-0…

@Sydney_Science @USydMSI students representing @AMSAconf. Well done team. @BellaMarrable @TH_Tony_Hsu @ChrisUndrTheSea Matt Clements.

Some great work by @ChandlerJosie and team. 4k video workflows to image 40+ conlonies per dive and predict 3D surface area from rapid 1D field measures for a wide range of corals! @CoralReefEcoLab @burn_deborah @PeterCDoll Agus Piccaluga Abby Johnades. rdcu.be/dS0NY

@Sydney_Science @OneTreeIslandRS So many to choose from. How about when we installed a plunge pool in the wet lab and filled it with fish @Dave_J_Booth?

Our little slice of heaven on the Southern GBR has been hit hard this year (bleaching like much of the reef) by elevated ocean temperatures. Be back in 2 weeks...hoping to see some recovery. 🤞@OneTreeIslandRS @Sydney_Uni @Sydney_Science @USydMSI fb.watch/rkfjVXS3TU/

First paper from @Cooney_CJ PhD thesis and it’s a cracker! Great work Chris, @ZiggyMarzinelli and @brig_sommer. I’m proud to have been involved.

@DrAnaVC @ProfMariaByrne @USydMSI @Sydney_Uni @Sydney_Science Very well deserved @ProfMariaByrne!!

We’re hosting an exciting Science Week event. Come join the conversation about traditional ecological knowledge and marine science in Gamay (Botany Bay). Thanks @InspiringNsw @Aus_ScienceWeek @IanPotterFdn @SydneyMarine and La Perouse LALCLocal for helping make this happen.

JOB! We’re looking for a great modeller/quantitative ecologist to join our Gamay project @SydneyMarine. I’m #AMSA2023 all week if you’re around and want more info.

We're looking for an ecosystem modeller to join the Gamay Project and help us better understand the complex ecology of Botany Bay. Spread the word! @SydneyMarine @DR_GRIB @DrKDafforn @MartinaADoblin @DrWillGlamore @j_ruprecht seek.com.au/job/67729875?t…

HUGE effort from @katie_erick to inform us on how to most efficiently get fish assemblage data out of our unbaited oyster reef videos. A lot of advantages to using MeanCount in these situations! peerj.com/articles/15426 @DrABugnot @USydMSI @Sydney_Science @SydneySOLES

Excited for the release of the most comprehensive ecological review of Gamay (Botany Bay) to date, identifying knowledge gaps & research opportunities. Read it: sims.org.au/research/flags… @IanPotterFdn @RecBoatFish @willfig @DRGRIB @MartinaADoblin @DrKDafforn @DrWilliamGlamore

Beautiful day at Coral Gardens off Manly…but we weren’t alone. A “smack” of moon jellies joined in the fun. Appropriate term as that’s also the noise they make when the swell pushes them against your wetsuit. ⁦@USydMSI⁩ ⁦@Sydney_Science⁩ ⁦@SydneyMarine

2nd group of @SydneySOLES Coral Reef Biology 2023 is underway @OneTreeIslandRS. Lots of food and wonderful reefs...what more can you want? Thanks for all the help including @ChrisUndrTheSea @EmilyMcLaren20, Matt Clements, Heather Sowden. Thankful to have dodged the cyclone!

How excited are we @Sydney_Science @USydMSI to welcome the newest member of the @OneTreeIslandRS team...baby Lukas! Congrats Ruby and Heinrich...can't wait to get back to paradise and meet the little dude. #WorkLifeBalance!!!!

@Cooney_CJ @brig_sommer @MariaBeger @USydMSI @SydneySOLES First real test for the dual Sony A7iii system as well! Great work @Cooney_CJ. #3Dreefs

The first major PhD fieldwork is underway!! Mapping the Solitary Islands to find out how P. aliciae occupies space on a rocky reef compared to its Sydney cousins. Big thanks to @brig_sommer and @MariaBeger for letting me tag along. @USydMSI @SydneySOLES @willfig

See what you can learn by watching a few hundred hours of videos! Great work @ChrisUndrTheSea. @USydMSI @Sydney_Science

One of Australia's most friendly + iconic fish 🐟the Eastern Blue Groper 🐟has been found using threatened #OysterReefs🦪as a potential juvenile habitat! Check out our ‼️ new paper ‼️ in Ecology here: doi.org/10.1002/ecy.38… @ESAEcology 1/2 @katie_erick @willfig @DR_GRIB
