FOME Lab fomelab - Bluesky Statics

AquaX: a next‑gen framework for mapping global marine biodiversity—better resolution, cleaner data, ML ensembles, and clearer uncertainty. It refines species distributions and projects how habitats may shift under climate change, supporting stronger evidence‑based conservation.

The overlooked introduction of the encrusting bryozoan Juxtacribrilina mutabilis to eastern Canada | Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom | Cambridge Core The overlooked introduction of the encrusting bryozoan Juxtacribrilina mutabilis to eastern Canada - Volume 105

A recent study reports a new arrival in eastern Canada: Juxtacribrilina mutabilis, a nonindigenous bryozoan threatening eelgrass, a key coastal habitat.

This study uncovers its hidden presence since 2013 + highlights the need for early detection & citizen science.

Title, authors’ names, and abstract from a paper about an index developed to predict the effects of climate-driven disruption in a network of marine protected areas along the eastern coast of Canada

Climate change is increasingly changing biological communities posing marine conservation challenges. Irvine et al. created a climate ecological disruption index that can inform conservation efforts to “build ecological resilience in a warming world” @consletters.bsky.social‬ doi.org/10.1111/conl...

Future Climate‐Driven Ecological Disruption in a Network of Marine Protected Areas on Canada's East Coast Climate-induced species range shifts alter ecological assemblages, yet little is known of the consequences for ecosystem functioning. We combine species distribution model (SDM) projections with spec...

Protected doesn’t mean safe 🌡️
A new study led by Amy Irvine, with Dr. Derek Tittensor, found warming oceans could shift marine species in Canada’s east coast MPAs. Their new tool, CEDI, helps spot at-risk areas so we can plan for a warming world.
