Rarely out here unless for work now. Woe is the life of a coastal ecologist

Recently, #UNC research headed down to the coast the film me and my work on living shorelines. Thankful for the spotlight and excited to continue and improve the work. #goheels 🐏

This newly installed "living shoreline" at the NC Rachel Carson Reserve sure seems to have attracted some living things

Gonna be speaking this Friday at the Benthic Ecology Meeting on how large-scale, natural #reefs 🦪 influence spatial patterns of #predation on benthic fauna in neighboring habitats
🦀🦈🐟
Can we use this info to determine whether restored reefs function like lost, natural reefs?

I’ll present on my intertidal range tests next week @amfisheriessoc.bsky.social
