@odocokate.bsky.socialRestoring seabirds and native vegetation can help atoll islands keep pace with sea-level rise. Culmination of a 4-year multidisciplinary project w/ @ymalhi.bsky.social @cbenkwitt.bsky.social @ineslange.bsky.social and many others Paper: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Show PostAfter a spring and summer of seabird fieldwork, data entry might not be at the top of your mind. So, if you need a complete refresher or just want to pick up some handy submission tips, watch our new video here! youtu.be/8Ai7XQLHi3I #Seabirds @btobirds.bsky.social @jncc.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social
