The Mediterranean is warming fast & future acidification may threaten bryozoans. Using a natural CO₂ vent, our @CommsBio study shows species-specific skeletal shifts, microbiome changes & long-term vulnerability. New animation out now 👇

🌊 L’oceà es pot dir de moltes maneres, però és únic
💙 Avui, en el Dia Mundial de l’Oceà, volem refermar el nostre compromís amb la salut de la gran taca blava
🙌El seu nom canvia segons la llengua, però la urgència de protegir-lo és universal

Blanca participated in Larwood Oslo 2026, where around 40 bryozoologists gathered to discuss exciting new research and exchange ideas on bryozoan biology, ecology, and evolution. #MedAcidWarm #HOLOCHANGE @CienciaGob @AgEInves

Molt contents de la participació en l'activitat sobre plàstics i espècies invasores de la @setmananatura. 🌿
Els plàstics trobats a la platja i a l'aigua ens recorden que encara queda molt per fer, tant a nivell personal com polític.
Gràcies, voluntaris i voluntàries! 💙

Really happy that I can finally attend the Larwood meeting again! Looking forward to reconnecting with many bryozoologist colleagues, some I haven’t seen in a long time, and to listening to the talks in such an interesting program! 🤗🪸 #Bryozoa

Vine a la @SetmanaNatura a l’@ICMCSIC! #FuturViu
Els plàstics que arriben al mar no només contaminen: també poden ajudar algunes espècies marines a desplaçar-se i colonitzar nous llocs.
Vols descobrir quins organismes poden viatjar sobre els plàstics marins?

We were so happy to welcome sponge taxonomists Javier Cristobo and Pilar Ríos from @IEO_GIJON to @ICMCSIC! We had the chance to show them our experiment and share our work. We also met their colleague, Florencio González. Such a great visit! #biodiversity #taxonomy

Farewell, Emmanouela! 💙
We couldn’t dive, but we still had such a great time together 😊
It was really nice having you with us. We’ll miss you!
Good luck with your Master’s thesis and enjoy the journey ahead 🌍✨

This week I am attending the Antarctic marine species traits workshop organized by @BiodiversityAQ, @SCAR_Tweets Antarctic Biodiversity Informatics, SCARfish & @WRMarineSpecies. With other taxonomists from #RAMS, we plan to integrate trait data & update priority trait lists.

Exciting news! Chapter 4 of Tomás’ thesis is published in Marine Environmental Research! Ocean warming and acidification may reduce the nutritional value of Antarctic seaweed Monostroma hariotii by altering its biochemical profile.
