POSTPONED - Hitchhiking Seaweed:

This event has been postponed. For notification when rescheduled, please email arcshonolulu@gmail.org

Dr. Angela Richards Donà presents "The Spread of an Invasive Hitchhiking Seaweed to the Main Hawaiian Islands Needn’t Be Inevitable."
Marine invasive species are already a great biosecurity issue in the Main Hawaiian Islands. The recently identified but rapidly spreading Chondria tumulosa could be a game changer. This fast-growing alga is smothering native limu and coral in the Papahānaumakuākea National Marine Sanctuary and is likely to thrive in degraded ecosystems—making our damaged reefs vulnerable.

Learn more about how (and where!) the Limu Lab team is working to prevent this catastrophe, why the science matters, and who may be our unlikely allies in this endeavor.

Dr. Doná is a post doctoral researcher in the ������Ƶ Manoa Limu Lab.

Co-sponsored by ARCS Foundation Honolulu Chapter, supporting outstanding ������Ƶ doctoral students in STEM and health disciplines for 52 years.
