New paper! We usually think of sediment getting finer as we move away from the shore. But, when biogenic and oceanographic factors come into play in the mesophotic zone, the patterns could be quite different. 🧪⚒️🌊 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Diverse and ecologically unique mesophotic coral ecosystems in the central Indian Ocean - Coral Reefs

Research on Mesophotic Coral Ecosystems (MCEs; 30–150 m) has grown exponentially in the last few decades, highlighting their rich diversity and extensive distribution. However, they are still largely…

Changes in mesophotic carbonate‐platform export across the end of the last glacial cycle (Saya de Malha Bank, western Indian Ocean)

Export from euphotic carbonate platforms is relatively well constrained, but less so from mesophotic carbonate platforms. This work explores the export patterns in lowstand, transgressive and highsta....

This large mesophotic octocoral (Muricea pendula) is supporting several basketstars #MDBC#fieldwork 🦑🧪🌊

🎉Congratulations 🎉(overdue) to Gonzalo Pérez-Rosales on being awarded a Hong Kong Research Grants Council (RGC) Postdoctoral Fellowship (2024-2027) to support our work exploring the drivers of #mesophotic#coral#CoralTriangle

Hey John! The expedition is part of a Deepwater Horizon restoration project that is developing coral propagation techniques. I’ll be taking snips of mesophotic octocorals to characterize their microbiomes.
