Congratulations to Molly Mitchell for winning the @AER_ESE_BES Chico Mendes Prize!👏
Molly worked with local managers to build an estimate model of marsh migration to prioritise #management areas amidst rising sea levels – combining #science with on-the-ground #practice!🌊
The study from @VIMS_News shows that extreme water temperatures associated with marine heatwaves last longer than previously known, exhibit subsurface seasonal patterns and are associated with the expansion of hypoxic zones.

Wahoo! Made the cover. Look at the boss of crab!
Climate changes relationships:
After a marine heatwave, fiddler crabs migrated north. There they reduced plant growth, the opposite of what they usually to do.

Excited to share my first first-author pub: rdcu.be/dtX7p. Landward migration of open-ocean coasts 1) leads to rapid rates of carbon erosion, dominated by C in lagoon sediments; and 2) spells trouble for the entire coastal system to continue functioning as a net C sink
As waters are warming, Cape Cod may eventually have no cod. Through his work as a co-PI with @VIMS_News Professor Roger Mann, @CGA_WM student Garrett Bellin ’25 is addressing fisheries management challenges and influencing industry partners’ decisions.
