Thanks! Iβve been locked out of my account for months so probably also seem like Iβm ignoring everyone. But I just got back in and saw this first so thanks!

Paper came out today that represents a long trip for many members of my lab. It took years to get these methods to work and gather the data so everyone involved should be very proud of the interesting outcome. Thanks to the whole gang for their perseverance on this one!

I donβt know how to use Bluesky just yet. But Iβm shifting my underwater macros over here so am going to learn. Hereβs a BC shot of a Google-eyed monster from a recent dive on Quadra Island. You know what it is and did you know they had loads of eyes?
