How I’m turning #seaweed into #biofuel for #cars on #Barbados
Mechanical engineer Legena Henry converts sargassum and rum-distillery waste water to produce sustainable #naturalgas for vehicles.
“All the islands in this region of the Caribbean have a sargassum problem and a rum wastewater problem—and ultimately a #climatechange problem,” Henry told Nature. “This solution is a win-win-win.”

iNaturalistAustralian Sea Centipede That's the Color of Lime Jell-O? - Observation of the Week, 3/25/25Our Observation of the Week is this Paridotea ungulata isopod, seen in Australia by @moth_nut! Currently living in Tasmania and working with the Australian National University and researching habitat suitability, threats, and effective management strategies for some of Australia’s most endangered birds, Tom Hunt’s childhood was spent in the Adelaide Hills of South Australia.  Surrounded by bushland and birds, I have been a keen nature lover and photographer for as long as I can remember. That passion eventually shaped my career, taking me across Australia as an ecologist working on conservation projects. My work is driven by a desire to help, in some small way, to reverse Australia’s alarming extinction rates and protect the wildlife that makes this country so special. As such, I have a particular interest in threatened species monitoring and management. After studying at The University of Adelaide, I spent over a decade working on conservation and restoration projects in South Aust...

"Researchers have discovered that what was previously thought to be a unique seaweed species of bladderwrack for the Baltic Sea is in fact a giant clone of common bladderwrack, perhaps the world's largest clone overall. The discovery has implications for predicting the future of seaweed in a changing ocean".

Green staghorn coral may be more likely to survive ocean warming if crabs are around phys.org/news/2025-02-green-st

"predation by #starfish led to wounds that bled mucus, which in turn attracted the hoof-clawed #crab... the #crabs fed on the mucus but did not harm the coral... they also fed on nearby #seaweed, typically the vectors for infectious #bacteria, which led to infection prevention in the #corals... coral that were protected by the crabs were 60% less likely to suffer tissue loss"
