A mammoth toothache: bacterial community discovered in mouth of ancient mammal Genetic-sequencing techniques have uncovered the oldest host-associated microbial DNA ever recorded — inside samples of teeth and bones from woolly and steppe mammoths.

This study describes the oldest microbial DNA ever sequenced

The silent signals of climate change Climate-driven changes to the chemical landscape of reefs affect the recovery of kelp forests

New Perspective out in Science with filbeek.bsky.social.
Climate change alters ocean chemical ecology, affecting resilience.
We highlight new research showing that turf allelochemicals inhibit kelp recruitment, creating barriers to recovery.

Haha amazing! Thank you!

Can you please add me? Thanks!

Hello! Marine ecology researcher here working on seaweed farming. Can you please add me to this starter pack? Thank you!

Frontiers | Co-location of seaweed farming with offshore wind energy: a quick scoping review

Studies on seaweed farming and offshore wind co-location often focus disproportionately on provisioning services while underexploring cultural benefits and governance challenges. Our quick scoping review in Frontiers highlights these gaps and opportunities: doi.org/10.3389/fmar...

Calling all marine ecologists! If you study biodiversity, conservation or related topics, a second 'Marine Ecologists' starter pack is being organized here on Bluesky to connect researchers and practitioners. Reply here or to @drangelborja.bsky.social if interested—we need 6–7 people to get started!

I feel you. Good news is that things can only improve from here 😀

World's hottest year: 2024 first to pass 1.5C warming limit Last year was the world's warmest on record, bringing temperatures above a politically symbolic milestone.

Reflecting on a year of weather extremes—droughts, wildfires, and powerful cyclones—2024 became the first year on record to exceed 1.5ºC warming above pre-industrial levels. Bold climate action will be needed to prevent this from becoming the norm: www.bbc.com/news/article...
