#JFB: What makes a habitat a home? Habitat associations of juvenile European sea bass 𝘋𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘶𝘴 𝘭𝘢𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘹 in estuarine nurseries doi.org/10.1111/jfb.15… #FishSci doi.org/10.1111/jfb.15…
Habitat associations of juvenile seabass in estuarine nurseries - a range of connected habitats are important across tides - fancy finding out more? You can find it in the latest JFB special issue! 🐟 #fish #ecology onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jf…
Habitat associations of juvenile European sea bass, 🐟🐟🐟Dicentrarchus labrax, in estuarine nurseries - Now available in journal format and Open Access #ecology #fish #coast @SeaBassBase @leannehepburn @pleuronect doi.org/10.1111/jfb.15…
In high sediment contamination concentration near oil and gas platforms, we showed a general decline in total species richness while pollution-resilient species dominant. Loss of larger predators and dietary specialists showed a degraded but more connected food web structure.

My first publication has been printed, this makes up the first data chapter of my PhD thesis, I am thrilled to finally have a publication under my belt! A huge thanks to @EssexLifeSci, @oilspillexperts @NERCscience and @ARIES_DTP for supporting this work meridian.allenpress.com/iosc/article/2…
We are working with the UK #NationalAllotmentSociety on an above & below ground biodiversity project. Phase 1 requires data capture for the following: 1) how allotment holders are managing plots. 2) to seek participants for future work. See poster for info & plot holder survey.
What habitats contribute to the nursery function of estuarine systems for juvenile sea bass? More than you might think! Have a read of our new paper in The Journal of Fish Biology as part of @TheFSBI symposium 2023 special issue with @Uni_of_Essex! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
Interested in studying above and below ground interactions AND interested in allotments AND microbial ecology? Then why not apply for this PhD opportunity with me : ) findaphd.com/phds/project/o…
