This is Steven Morgan. He has a new #SeaGrantFunded project using “robot larvae” to better understand marine larvae movement, which has major implications for managing ocean resources. https://go.ucsd.edu/2HKzKp0

To restore the endangered @whiteabalone, scientists must learn about one of its natural predators—the California two-spot #octopus 🐙 https://go.ucsd.edu/2LlAxOB #SeaGrantFunded

Computer-generated daily maps help fishermen locate the most productive fishing spots in near real time while reducing accidental catches of protected species https://go.ucsd.edu/2snVXT2 @elhazen @oceansolutions @NOAAFish_WCRO #SeaGrantFunded

Why are scientists trying to outsmart this #octopus? 🐙 http://go.ucsd.edu/2LlAxOB @SeaGrant @NOAAFisheries @Scripps_Ocean @dr_octopod #SeaGrantFunded

Happy #CephalopodWeek! Check out how @CASeaGrant research is teaching us more about the California two-spot #octopus and how its hunting prowess could affect the recovery of @WhiteAbalone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcVarRhLSwE

BOO!

...It's not an alien, it's a @WhiteAbalone. Highly endangered because of overfishing and environmental change, these freaky-looking invertebrates are being hand-raised for restoration & research by #SeaGrantFunded scientist @KristinAquilino. #HappyHalloween @SeaGrant

Today we got to check out a cool #SeaGrantFunded project at @MLMLmarinesci, where researchers are growing seaweed and abalone together, to see if the seaweed will help buffer the impacts of ocean acidification. Read more about the project: https://go.ucsd.edu/2SDI136

#SustainableSeafood? Yes please!

New #SeaGrantFunded research from @NOAAFish_WCRO shows that US consumers are willing to pay a premium for sustainably caught fish. The challenge is in making the choices clear and available. https://go.ucsd.edu/2QmvcIP

#seagrantfunded researchers at @Scripps_Ocean are cataloging the sounds of kelp forest fish in an effort to better track ocean health.

It also turns out that garibaldi are might fine beatboxers. https://go.ucsd.edu/2SQqnbz

It's been an exciting day at @ucdavis @bodegamarinelab! 7 females and 3 males spawned, including several wild-caught animals, which will help to add genetic diversity to the small captive population of @WhiteAbalone here.
