#UVicInTheNews: Today on the #ScholComBlog, @Ocean_Networks's and #UVic's own @DominicaH_ discusses Belinda the sneezing sea sponge, and what she means for research about changing ocean conditions.🌊 Read it here: tinyurl.com/sneezing-sea-spo…

Sponge Belinda Square Pants 🧽💛
1/🧽ONC's seafloor cameras captured 4 years of sea sponge life off BC’s coast—the longest continuous recording of these ancient animals!

Meet Belinda, the extraordinary sponge! 🧽✨ A Suberites concinnus in Barkley Sound, BC, Belinda responds to her environment with unique behaviors. From long-term winter contractions to active summer expansions, Belinda is full of surprises!

Earlier this week @NOAA declared the 4th global #coralbleaching event. Driven by #climatechange, corals around the world have been bleaching and dying over the past year, adding to the devastating losses of the 3rd such event less than a decade ago. We need #ClimateActionNow
Nearly a quarter of all ocean species rely on coral reefs, but high ocean temperatures have resulted in a global coral reef bleaching event.
"It's alarming and likely catastrophic," @baumlab tells @WmBrangham.
Very excited to continue my research in West Hawaii with the support of the @ICRSCoralReefs Graduate Fellowship and big thanks to @asnerlab @ASU_GDCS @baumlab for making our collaboration possible!
Big congrats to @DominicaH_ on receiving a Graduate Fellowship from @ICRSCoralReefs - International Coral Reef Society! This fellowship will support Dominica's ongoing research in West Hawaii.

Congratulations to Kelly van Woesik on successfully completing her masters degree @ASU_GDCS Hawaii. Kelly’s research guides our akoakoa.org coral reef restoration program!
The first chapter of my dissertation is out! Looking at the spectral sensitivity of benthic community shifts of Hawaiian reefs. This will help us delineate reef communities for targeted restoration efforts in West Hawaiʻi. authors.elsevier.com/a/1ie3o… @ASU_GDCS @asnerlab @baumlab

Incredibly stoked to be able to share this latest episode from the brilliant Ze Frank and Caitlyn Cowry- True Facts about Reef-Building Coral- We thought it about time the crazy world of coral biology was given an NSFW makeover!

1 week of data collection on #kiritimati following a 4yr hiatus due to Covid. Stoked to see the amount of recovery on the reefs!
