Congratulations @robingauff.bsky.social & co-authors for this global long-term study on negative sea level anomalies, aka Dry Tides! 👏👏👏 a quantified new disturbance category for the intertidal 🌊 ☀️ 🛘 @louisefirth.bsky.social @pippajmoore.bsky.social @marclim-uk.bsky.social @nessocon.bsky.social

Finally: What happens when weather anomalies push down ⏬🌊the sea-level over days or weeks? We describe Dry Tides as a new category of climatic disturbance, often associated to #heatwaves or high pressure, that leaves intertidal organisms with dry feet💀 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

The studies, published in June, concluded that for bowhead whales and ringed seals, exposure to ships during the ice-covered season is relatively low for now. Still, scientists have concerns about the future effects of ships on wildlife. (From KNBA - Anchorage)

#Ecoengineering increases species diversity by increasing habitat patchiness and complexity, this is well documented. Unfortunately this is linked to increasing #invasivespecies diversity in several Eco-engoneered systems. 1/3

As scientists warn that #AMOC may slow/collapse, experts are trying to improve research on this critical ocean conveyor system We need: - Better measurements - Global cooperation - Sustained funding - New tech for real-time data AMOC research=climate security. Let's keep it going! 🌍💙 @noc.ac.uk
