Associate Prof. in Coastal Ecology & Biodiversity @Swansea University. Topics: Biodiversity change; Ecosystem functions & services; Trait-based ecology. Systems: Rocky shores, Salt marshes, Coastal dunes.
Looking forward to our @ciimar.bsky.social seminar next week. @rubygeorge.bsky.social and I will be flying the flag for rocky shores as a valuable model system.

Physical heterogeneity or complexity is well-known to affect biodiversity, but what about ecosystem functioning? Our study (now published) shows heterogeneity drives cascades that boost foundation species, biodiversity, and multifunctionality esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....

Happy to be visiting sites in Galicia, N. Spain, with PhD student Ruby George and the CIIMAR team. This is the southern (warmest) region in our collaborative study on the resilience of intertidal forests along a latitudinal gradient. @aec13.bsky.social @dansmale1.bsky.social

Great to get onto the shore to check out the field experiments just a few km from our campus, with @rubygeorge.bsky.social and new PhD student Abrar Shakil.

Check out our new #OA paper on foredune recovery along 500km of SE-US coastline following Hurricane Irma. Plant diversity and key engineers showed opposing latitudinal gradients. FL dunes more dependent on plant diversity than assumed. tinyurl.com/33cxzk6b

Can we design “self cleaning” slipways by providing refugia for molluscan grazers? Visiting PhD student Sally Henderson’s field experiment with project partners.

Fun celebration combining our Coastal Ecology & Paleo Shark gangs. @thefairchild.bsky.social was a maestro in the kitchen as usual!

Excited to share our pre-print showing how substrate heterogeneity kicks-off cascades of positive interactions that strongly boost ecosystem multifunctionality tinyurl.com/2pdenkw2

Half our lab has been busy in the field this week, monitoring the self-cleaning slipway experiment and collecting seaweeds for trait screening.
