I will go for the twin funnel design, this looks a bit better. FDM testprint.

Out here, when you see ‘tuna research’ on the map it literally means that.

Recognizing the interconnection of human & #marine #ecosystems is essential, as the stress in one often affects the other.
If you see a marine mammal in distress, please give them space and call the Marine Mammal Care Center’s Marine Mammal Hotline at 1-800-39-WHALE (94253).
#DomoicAcid can also accumulate in #shellfish & small #fish that feed on the #algae, leading to poisoning in larger #marine animals & humans who consume contaminated #seafood.
Addressing the urgent need to monitor the impact of harmful #AlgalBlooms on #MarineSpecies requires collective strategies. The destructive #California #wildfires, which have contaminated our #oceans & are threatening #MarineLife, serve as a critical call to action for collaborative efforts to protect marine environments….
When #marine animals ingest #DomoicAcid, they endure severe neurological symptoms such as seizures, disorientation, &, ultimately, death. These incidents often necessitate euthanasia due to the high mortality rates associated w/this toxin. This alarming rise in domoic acid poisoning cases not only threatens individual #MarineSpecies but also highlights the broader impacts #humans have on marine #ecosystems.
#Wildfires, including the #EatonFire & #PalisadesFire, have significant repercussions on #marine #ecosystems. The ash & debris from these fires can enter waterways & eventually the #ocean, altering nutrient levels & fostering conditions favorable to the growth of harmful #AlgalBlooms. The #toxic byproducts from these fires can exacerbate #OceanWarming, further promoting the frequency of these toxic blooms. This can lead to increased production of #DomoicAcid.
#Crisis On The Coast: #DomoicAcid Poisoning Strands 140 #SeaLions & 50 #Dolphins On #California Beaches
The recent influx of #marine #wildlife affected by domoic acid poisoning off the coast of Southern California underscores a critical #environmental crisis, w/≧140 sea lions suffering from this debilitating poison & reports of at least 50 stranded dolphins along local beaches.

I heard a group of people erupt into loud, massive belly-extending laughter. Walked over and said what’s so funny? And they said they were discussing hilarious facts about elephant seals

I have a whole bunch of marine puns in a different language that I doubt more than 1 other person at work would understand.
In Taiwanese / Hokkien,
‘Hae’ means shrimp
‘Heh’ means fish
So since I was a child my cousins and I have always been saying shrimp shrimp shrimp or fish fish fish for ‘hehehehe’ laughing
It was meant to be
Check out this exceptional sea cucumber from Singapore. Real nature can be more bizarre than fiction.
The photograph is by @budak, well worth a follow on both Mastodon and Flickr. They find and photograph amazing animals.
Someone gave me a seaweed snack and said, ‘let me kelp you’
The magnetic pole island, old idea
March 21st, from 12:30 to 1:30 in Askja N-132, Theodoros Karpouzoglou, a marine physicist at the Marine and Freshwater Research Institute will be presenting:
Three Forcing Mechanisms of Freshwater Transport in Fram Strait
Monterey Bay FC was brave to launch a new mascot, call it Kelpie, which looks like an off brand Gritty, and nothing like kelp.
I know a bunch of marine scientists who are annoyed about this
Cool puffin tshirt. Get one (or a few) to support seabird conservation
