Where are some of the pollutants finding their way into #BiscayneBay coming from? @UrbanEcoMatt & @JohnKominoski have an answer - they're flowing into the bay w/ help from #sealevelrise & high tides 🌊 Read more about this study: news.fiu.edu/2021/fiu-resea…


You can check out the live #BiscayneBay data coming in from our buoys here: crestcache.fiu.edu/research/resea…

Today, we can see to the bottom of #BiscayneBay & we see #seagrass! Our buoys are doing their jobs & alerting us whenever something seems concerning. We’re in better shape a year later, but we still have a long way to go, says @crowl_ta 🐟🌱🌊 cc: @LOUISAGUIRRE @WPLGLocal10

Our #manatee population is at risk & it's up to us to do something about it 🌊 #Seagrass is the # 1 food source for manatees but its disappearing quickly, including in #BiscayneBay. So manatees are now eating algae, says Aarin-Conrad Allen from our @ecology_lab #SaveTheManatees

This is a wake up call. After already shattering the record for most manatees lost in a single year, Florida may very well lose over 1000 manatees by the end of the year. Especially with another red tide already devastating the gulf coast. @savethemanatee @FIUEnvironment
