We revealed hidden champions of muddy coastal sediments! Nematodes and foraminifera take center stage, contributing 3-30% to total sediment oxygen uptake Find tips on estimating respiration and insights on meiofauna sensitivity to hypoxia here: doi.org/10.1002/lno.12393 @aslo_org

""And so, where I come down is to try to ensure that if we're going to lose all that forest, that we at least get something in return. And that's the marshes." @VIMS_News @Salty_Serina
Acres of forest land in the U.S. is drowning from rising sea levels, creating one of the most striking indicators of climate change: ghost forests. One scientist, who says the phenomenon is inevitable, is now working to ensure the marshes left behind offer some benefits.

Cold water is no match for our crews out on the water this week at the @vcrlter but I think we’re all looking forward to the warmer field days ahead of us! @uvaevsc @BergLabUVA

In Denmark, people return and recycle 93% of all bottles and cans♻️ In that way, the Danish bottle deposit system keeps the streets and parks clean🌳💚 It's a win-win - for the citizens and the environment! What do you do with your empty bottles? #GlobalRecyclingDay

Little late on the #WorldSeagrassDay post, but we still want to highlight one of our @USLTER #seagrass experiments! In 2015, a marine #heatwave caused a 90% dieback in a Zostera marina seagrass meadow near one of Virginia's barrier islands. @ameliecberger @Karen_McG2 @BergLabUVA

The All-Scientist Meeting for the @vcrlter was back together again on the Eastern Shore for 2023, bringing together all the research from the ghost forests, the marshes, the barrier islands, and the lagoons.

Interesting WashPost story about moving communities from inhospitable locations after hurricanes. Elsewhere on the Shore, my great great grandfather helped move a different community after the same 1933 hurricane (houses rolled on pine logs by oxen) @coastalgeology @WildCora
Replying to @chriscmooney
3. In the piece we tell the story of the small town of Oyster, Virginia, which is facing fast-rising seas. But to understand what is really at stake in Oyster, you have to go back a century to an island off the coast from it, Hog Island.
