Coming soon ! Don't hesitate to apply (as it is the last training school that will be organized by Working group 2)... #MarineConnectivity Sea-Unicorn, Lucía López López, Andrés Ospina @[email protected] sea-unicorn.com/post/call-for-…

What happens to the creatures that live in corals when their homes bleach and die? How long before these guys get eaten?

The first good news of 2024 is that I've just been selected for the position of Senior Researcher at the Environmental Research Center of Annaba.
Thank goodness for all those who have contributed to my training, by which I mean my teachers and trainers at Sea-Unicorn.

I attended my first Sea-Unicorn meeting last May and was impressed with the research into marine connectivity across a variety of methods, taxa & habitats. I’m excited to be speaking again at #iMarCo2024 , and to share this video on our small community
