Rising ocean temperatures and extreme temperature events have precipitated declines and local extinctions in many marine species globally, but patterns of loss are often uneven across species… Read more “New Paper: Local thermal adaptation and limited gene flow constrain future climate responses of a marine ecosystem engineer”
New paper: Maintenance of Complex Life Cycles Via Cryptic Differences In The Ecophysiology Of Haploid And Diploid Spores Of An Isomorphic Red Alga
Recognition of the wide diversity of organisms that maintain complex haploid–diploid life cycles has generated interest in understanding the evolution and persistence of such life cycles. We… Read more “New paper: Maintenance of Complex Life Cycles Via Cryptic Differences In The Ecophysiology Of Haploid And Diploid Spores Of An Isomorphic Red Alga”
PhD Scholarship: Using children’s literature to teach marine science concepts
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join the DeakinSeaEd Research Group for a project based at the Deakin University Geelong Waurn Ponds Campus examining… Read more “PhD Scholarship: Using children’s literature to teach marine science concepts”
New Paper: Attachment strength differs amongst life-history stages of an intertidal, isomorphic red alga
Complex haploid-diploid life cycles amongst marine organisms may be maintained by ecological differences in life-history phases. For red algal species within the Gigartinaceae, such differences may be… Read more “New Paper: Attachment strength differs amongst life-history stages of an intertidal, isomorphic red alga”
