Marine microbial ecology, corals shallow to deep sea, snorkeling to submersibles. Happiest when a little salty. Basis for characters in 2 fiction novels. Listens to '80s big hair bands when working in lab.

Happy #WorldJellyfishDay!
I've drawn quite a few jellyfish in my time. Their relatively simple and distinctive shape make them an ideal subject for the beginner artist. As you improve, you can tackle the wider variety of color and form. Here is a fantastical one 🪼

New Nature paper!
Vaga et al. (2025) reconstruct a time-calibrated phylogeny of stony (scleractinian) corals, which suggests that some could be resilient to climate change.

A global coral phylogeny reveals resilience and vulnerability through deep time - Nature
The most recent common ancestor of the stony coral Scleractinia dates to about 460 million years ago and was probably a solitary, heterotrophic and free-living organism.
