MCEM Oxford Oxford Biology University of Oxford

So much work but made fun and interesting by awesome team!

Coastal urbanization + big ocean -> strong water quality gradient -> habitat heterogeneity at small scales -> accumulation of diverse/unique communities (even at high impact sites) -> super high regional biodiversity.

“We are lucky that do not face such oppression. We should not judge those in Hong Kong who do. Far from condemning them as thugs, we should support them in their struggle, recognise their courage and salute them for their remarkable restraint.”

Richard Lloyd Parry Thank you so much for the piece and your thorough understanding.
We all would like to use peaceful means to fight for freedom &democracy in Hong Kong if we had a choice. We have tried many times but in vain. We are forced to use forces to protect ourselves from bloody crackdowns.

Senator Marco Rubio applauds President Biden for signing his #HongKongHumanRightsandDemocracyAct .

Statement ⬇️

Grateful to President Biden for signing our bipartisan legislation to stand up for the brave people of Hong Kong and hold Beijing accountable. The United States of America stands with Hong Kong.

I‘m also glad that my PROTECT Hong Kong Act was signed into law. It will ensure that U.S. police and crowd control equipment is not used to suppress pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong.

This is a good day for human rights and a good day for democracy.

It is great news that the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act has been signed into law.

It is now crystal clear that America stands with the people of Hong Kong in their struggle for accountability and democracy. nytimes.com/2019/11/27/us/…

I’m glad President Biden signed the #HongKong HumanRightsandDemocracyAct today. Without question, the American people support the people of #HongKong , and this law makes that abundantly clear to Hong Kongers, the international community, and the CCP. foreign.senate.gov/press/chair/re…

Earlier this week, the Senate passed the #HongKong Human Rights and Democracy Act which I proudly cosponsored. Hong Kong’s citizens deserve our support in their demand for human rights & democratic values. I urge the president to sign this bill into law 🇭🇰

Terribly sorry to hear the tragic news that #JuniusHo appears to have lost by 17 votes. A great shame for #HongKong and the world.

New piece on Carrie Lam’s Cambridge honour.

Time for it to go Wolfson College #StandWithHongKong

The choice #China is giving the people of #HongKong voting in the District Council elections is a bag of rice or freedom.
