An advisory group to the Marine Fisheries Commission is scheduled to hear a presentation on managing seagrasses oct. 16. coastalreview.org/2024/10/fish...
The North Carolina Marine Fisheries Commission's Habitat and Water Quality Advisory Committee meeting is set for Wednesday, Oct.16, in Morehead City and on YouTube.
it's like trying to read traceries in the sand well after the fact, you know, the tide has gone out and things are muddled with seagrasses.
reading the line "seagrasses form dense underwater seagrass meadows which are among the most productive ecosystems in the world" and starting to hoot and holler
getting absolutely riled up reading the wikipedia page on seagrasses
I feel this way about a lot of blue carbon work. Yes we should protect mangroves & seagrasses There are excellent reasons (important fish habitat, coastal storm protection) but a lot of reasons for their protection/restoration lead w/ their role in carbon sequestration (which is less well defined).
though generally attached to rock, seagrasses and kelp, it can detach its pedestal disk & creep along the seabed, climb sea grasses or algae to find better places to hunt prey! #linocut#InverteFest
Blue carbon ecosystems like seagrasses and mangroves are very effective at capturing carbon (they can sequester more carbon per acre than forests!) and provide storm protection, water quality boosts, and economic benefits. More by U.S. Nature4Climate: usnature4climate.org/2024/08/19/s...
Another Hell on Earth map. The 1.5°C threshold is now definitely “in the bag”, estimated arrival late 2020s early 2030s. What did the 30,652 species of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, marine fish, benthic marine invertebrates, kill, cephalopods, corals, and seagrasses do to deserve this? 💔
