Each #kelp population carries its own genetic mix shaped by local conditions. When forests shrink or become isolated they can lose diversity, slowing recovery. Our research shows mixing individuals from different regions may support resilience. Dive deeper: kelprescue.org/publications

Even though BMSC has operated for more than 50 years, this is our very first Bluesky post!
We are excited to say hello to the #science #ocean #education #conservation and #research communities here and can not wait to connect with all of you!
This view was from our main building deck yesterday!
