Such exciting news!
Our coral reefs here in the Keys could begin growing again at historical levels—as fast as their peak 7,000 years ago—if restoration goals of Mission: Iconic Reefs are achieved. Watch this video about a new study: usgs.gov/media/videos/lauren….

More Aiptasia talks @ICRS_2022 this morning! @coryjkrediet asked how Aiptasia responds to temperature and pH stress as a holobiont (host 🪸, algae 🌱 and microbes 🦠). He and his undergrads found changes in microbial community composition after longterm stress. @ICRSCoralReefs

When Dr. Eugenie Clark was around 9️⃣ years old, her days were spent at the New York Aquarium, where she fell in 💙 with all things ocean! Now she's known as Mote's founder! 🦈 Her efforts & findings help the next generation of marine scientists to create a better future.

A Florida native recently spotted Cherub, a dolphin with suspected hypo-pigmentation. It's been over a year since we've received reports of this beauty! Cherub was seen traveling with 3 other dolphins. This is a great sign, as this dolphin is suspected to be 1-2 years.
