🌡️ Europe’s heatwaves are hitting the #Mediterranean sea too – and marine life is reaching breaking point.
Most marine protected areas ignore shifting habitats from #ClimateChange.
We need future-proof protection: science-based, connected, climate-smart.

My first PhD chapter got published! 🎉
We investigated sediment preference of Wadden Sea benthos, and identified areas which are sensitive to sediment change, or "sandification". Curious to know more? You can read our (open access) paper here: doi.org/10.1016/j.ec....

We had lots of fun recording for our project TRAILS at Wageningen University (and on a “real” mudflat!), with my lovely project colleagues Anna-Maartje de Boer, Natascia Pannozzo and @coastallycurious.bsky.social

Last week, I showed our research on sediment mixing by benthic animals at the Dutch Earth Sciences conference (NWO-NAC). I had interesting chats with geologists, learned a lot (amongst others about dinosaurs and plate tectonics😂) and won the second price with my poster!
