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.

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 โ€œbuild ecological resilience in a warming worldโ€ @consletters.bsky.socialโ€ฌ doi.org/10.1111/conl...

A new study led by Amy Irvine, with Dr. Derek Tittensor, found warming oceans could shift marine species in Canadaโ€™s east coast MPAs. Their new tool, CEDI, helps spot at-risk areas so we can plan for a warming world.

Congrats Dr. Derek Tittensor on receiving Dalhousieโ€™s Presidentโ€™s Research Excellence Award for Research Impact!
This award honours major research contributionsโ€”and we canโ€™t think of anyone more deserving. Derekโ€™s work in marine biodiversity and global ocean science continues to make waves!
