Our honorary HaBBs did it again! Congrats to our friends and colleagues Arthur and Aymere for publishing a new paper describing a new species of Palaemonella from the Arabian peninsula (the name is the best part!). Check it at this link: mapress.com/zt/article/v...
Vicky and Fabio on board the R/V Meteor in Al Wajh, a big cruise in collaboration with Hamburg University, Bremen University, ZMT Bremen and KAUST. Here they are assessing biodiversity and geomorphology of the mesophotic and deep Al Wajh carbonate platform together with the marum ROV pilot team 🧪🪸🌍
Great effort! Lovely to see the science community grow here. We are the Habitat and Benthic Biodiversity Lab at KAUST in the Red Sea! We study shallow, mesophotic and deep reefs by combining taxonomy, long-term ecological surveys and habitat mapping techniques 🪸🧪🦑🌍
The HaBB's or as we like to say Habibis (= friends in Arabic) made it onto Bluesky 🟦 We are based at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia. Stay tuned for updates about our work on the shallow, mesophotic and deep reefs of the Red Sea! 🪸🧪🦑🌍
