Yes, I spend some time at "that other website" because there are still gems like this tweet:
https://twitter.com/KkHimalaya/status/1700177794133786946
...where I found out about #Yemen's #Socotra Archipelago.
Quotes: "...37% of Socotra’s 825 #plant species, 90% of its #reptile species and 95% of its land #snail species do not occur anywhere else in the world."
Also, offshore:
"...253 species of reef-building #corals, 730 species of #coastal #fish & 300 species of #crab, #lobster and #shrimp."
🤯😲

In their #JEB100 Commentary Zoe Dellaert & Hollie Putnam discuss why quantifying biological responses is key for conservation/management decisions & how studying tissue-specific responses in #corals can improve our capacity for eco-evolutionary forecasting.

Grazing dugongs, graceful manta rays, sparring whales, golden rafts of Sargassum, & the enduring connection of Traditional Owners.

Race to save #Florida’s #coralreef from hot #ocean waters
#Coral reef nurseries are being moved to deeper waters—or back into giant tanks on land.
Volunteers at Keys Marine Laboratory and at other labs across Florida will hand-feed the tiny creatures to keep them alive until the Florida waters cool again and they can be returned to the ocean and eventually transplanted onto the reef. Normally, #ICARE divers would be transplanting #corals to #FloridaKeys this time of year

Translated headline from https://nos.nl/collectie/13871/artikel/2484234-koraal-bij-florida-verbleekt-door-warme-water-veel-eerder-dan-verwacht (Dutch)
"There's no way to predict how the corals will survive the summer. A tropical storm or hurricane could significantly cool the water and stop the bleaching. If the water stays warm, scientist fear mass death for the corals" 😢
So let's all hope for massive hurricanes for Florida ... 🤷 🤔
