Our preprint on chromosomal inversions in Acropora kenti is finally out. Work with @janstrugnell.bsky.social, many others not on BlueSky, and of course Jia Zhang who did the majority of analyses.

What octopus DNA tells us about Antarctic ice sheet collapse
Did the enormous West Antarctic Ice Sheet collapse the last time global temperatures were 1.5°C above preindustrial levels? The answer lay in the DNA of an octopus.
