Did you know which Cystoseira species appear at each depth?

It shows how different Cystoseira species appear at different depths — some can even be found beyond 35 meters!

The Cystoseira silhouettes come from Blanfune et al. (2022), “Les forêts marines de France et de Méditerranée.”

Today we bring you a “Did you know…?” based on a beautiful infographic from the PhD thesis of our Cristina Galobart.

Her 2025 thesis is titled “Evaluating success in macroalgal forest restoration: Indicators for biodiversity and functional recovery.”

La Marta feia les coses com si no costessin… com ho fan les persones sàvies.

Durant els últims mesos, dibuixava boscos d’algues. Deia que la distreien.

Nosaltres pensem que ens ha deixat pistes d’on trobar-la.

Et buscarem. 🪸

Després de la seva tesi, centrada en la distribució espacial dels boscos de Cystoseires, va iniciar —gairebé per casualitat i guiada només per la seva curiositat— el que acabaria sent un projecte exemplar de restauració d’aquests ecosistemes al Mediterrani.

Ja nedes, Marta… companya i amiga.

La Marta Sales ens ha deixat massa aviat. A més de ser una gran amiga, ha estat un referent per a totes nosaltres. Gràcies a ella hem après a estimar i entendre millor aquests boscos marins que tant ens apassionen.

I finalment vam agafar restes de diverses espècies d'algua fora l'aigua i les vam anar veient al detall una per una 👀🪸

Tot això acompanyat d'un pica-pica final, moltes converses interessants i una temperatura ideal. Va ser un dia rodó! 🔝

La jornada d'aquest dissabte va ser tot un èxit! 🪸

El dia va començar amb una passejada fins a la Cala Estreta 👣

Llavors vam explicar què són els boscos marins i quina importància tenen 🌳🌊

Vam fer snorkel per descobrir-ho en primera persona 🤿

🌍 Today is #InternationalDayForBiologicalDiversity
📉 In Catalonia, over 25% of natural habitats are in poor condition. Marine ecosystems are among the most threatened.

🔬 At Marine Forest Research Group, we study marine biodiversity to help protect it.

Every year, we head out with @univgirona.bsky.social biology students!

👩🏻‍🔬 Today we were sampling algae like the ones below to prepare for the botany visum exam.
How many algae from image 2 can you name?

We love field trips! 🪸
Especially when the sea looks like this today… 🩵

And when a curious cuttlefish comes to say hi near the rocks! 🦑
