PHD OPPORTUNITY: Shifting Baselines and Ecosystem Function in Tobago’s Coral Reefs Post-Bleaching (Cardiff University) This PhD investigates shifting baselines in coral reef conservation in Tobago, following the 2024 mass bleaching event that led to failure of restoration efforts and significant coral mortality. Using 20 years of fish biology data and long-term monitoring sites, the project will assess how ecosystem function has changed post-disturbance, focusing on fish-coral interactions and biodiversity loss by determining: • How has ecosystem function shifted following coral mortality? • What indicators best reflect resilience or collapse in reef systems? • Can long-term datasets reveal thresholds or tipping points in reef health? • Have local perceptions of coral reef resources changed? Application deadline 8th January 2026 Learn more here: findaphd.com/phds/project/sh… #coralreefs #coralbleaching #phd #careeropportunity #shiftingbaselines #tobago #ecosystemfunction #caribbean #marineecology #marinebiology

Introducing #BAMBOO Work Package 2! The goal of this WP is to quantify the impacts of trade in non-food biomass on #ecosystemfunction. It includes developing new ways to assess the impacts of trade on ecosystem functions and identifying the most important drivers of change.

I echo this. Just because we are starting with #Carbon doesn't mean it's the end goal. #ReFi will grow from the #EcosystemService approach to the #EcosystemFunction one, which will drive regeneration across all domains. There is a bigger ecological disaster beyond heating.

The ReFi community isn't a finished product, it's a movement. What starts with carbon credits can evolve to more holistic, integrated solutions. For example, we feel that building aligned community hubs can be one of the best catalysts for creating nuanced systemic change.

Intact #ecosystems protect us all. Selling it off with reckless disregard profits a few. Down the road we will all notice the loss of #WaterFiltration and #StormWaterControl. #Bill23 #ConservationAuthorities #EcosystemFunction #PublicGoodNotPrivateProfit
⁉️What? By passing Bill 23, the provincial government mandated all Conservation Authorities in Ontario to initiate a process to review all of their land holdings and determine all lands on which subdivisions could be built and sold to developers. 1/2

📢New paper out, led by @tadhg_carroll42 and Mark Vellend We argue that, to understand #BiodiversityChange and it's implications for #EcosystemFunction, we must distinguish environmental change from adaptive community dynamics. Check it out in early view @GlobalChangeBio 👇
