Frederick (and all of us) is super excited to publish his first research paper on restoration trials of #Zostera #capensis in South Africa. An important contribution to help us in our efforts to better understand #seagrass #restoration in #SouthAfrica. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Brimming with pride - @megjjackson, @YuillJessie
& @1SaltyScientist ALL completed their M degrees with DISTINCTION! These fabulous ladies all worked on #seagrass #zosteracapensis in South Africa. A huge congratulations on their achievement! @NRF_News
You know when your lab is having fun in the field when they send you movies like this one. Thank you to Aidan Bossert, our 2022 Honours student for putting the movie together and @bio_za, who organised the fieldwork (and is doing fabulous work on seagrass blue carbon).
Good news for #southAfrica #seagrass! Two grants to continue our #Zostera capensis work. Watch out for #bluecarbon #pollution #genomics #tissueculture #restoration. Thank you @NRF_News marine/coastal & @SasolSA-NRF programmes for funding!
Sending a happy dog to help cheer you up. Seagrass about 150km away, so can’t help there! Sorry you had such a horrible experience....
We're currently in 2nd place but we can win this thing for sure!! Vote at: youtube.com/watch?v=hTU_EZyv… and make our genome dream a reality!
Always fun to be put with #phD @KatieMWatson_ and her mentors. Thank you tons to Jamila and Martin for helping out today. And to ‘Miss Naughtyface’ for finding all the hermit crabs. Seagrass does seem to attract them! #seagrass #restoration #SouthAfrica @NRF_News
