Never seen such a massive bloom of *Noctiluca scintillans* in the North Sea! Impressive dinoflagellates which probably liked the recent hot days. And, of course, the waves were flashing at night... Plankton is sooooo cool! #phytoplankton #marineplankton #seasparkle @icbm-uol.bsky.social

New doctoral researchers dive into #OceanFloor science! 🌊✨ 1st retreat in Rastede: meet peers, explore science, build community. Supported by @marumunibremen.bsky.social & @icbm-uol.bsky.social. Inclusive, collaborative, future-focused & excellent. More info ➡️ oceanfloor.marum.de/en/firstDocc...
More than a year ago researchers from @hifmb.de and @icbm-uol.bsky.social started to write about different perspectives on marine biodiversity change from natural and social science perspectives. This morphed into a review paper that was published online today link.springer.com/article/10.1... 🧪
Towards a broader perspective on marine biodiversity change - Marine Biodiversity
Biodiversity decline jeopardizes the foundation of natural ecosystems and human well-being, a concern that prompted major global agreements aiming to bend the curve towards a net positive biodiversity...

onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... @ckunze.bsky.social tested whether the concept of response diversity holds for pulse disturbances & realized response diversity. Turns out interaction strength is key. Great collaboration w @owpet.bsky.social & Shyamolina Gosh @icbm-uol.bsky.social @hifmb.de
Species Interactions Determine the Importance of Response Diversity for Community Stability to Pulse Disturbances
Caculations of response diversity can be based on species fundamental responses in isolation or their realised responses in the community using metrics of response dissimilarity and response divergen...
