We just got back from the first field trip of the season, checking on the 1000 square meters of bull kelp outplanted in partnership with @kelprescue.bsky.social and Project Watershed.
The kelp babies are still small, but should grow fast in the coming months!

It's been a hell of a week, but daytime low tides are back for the summer!
This is my fifth straight year doing monthly intertidal surveys on the shores of the Salish Sea, investigating changes to seaweed phenology over the last half century as part of my PhD thesis.

Hello everybody, my name is Brian and I am a PhD candidate in the Baum Lab studying kelp forests and climate change.
I use a mix of old (historical photos, maps) and new (drones, ROVs) to document change in nearshore ecosystems. Follow along for more kelpy content!
