After a four-year investigation, a breakthrough study reveals the cause of sea star wasting disease (SSWD). A strain of the bacterium Vibrio pectenicida is the culprit behind the marine epidemic that has killed billions of sea stars since 2013. Learn more: tula.org/news/researche…
New mega RNA virus may hold the key to mass oyster die-offs. Scientists have discovered a previously unknown virus in farmed Pacific #oysters during a mass die-off in #BC, Canada. oceans.ubc.ca/?p=34237 @ubcscience @UBCeoas @Virosphere2012
‘Disease detectives’ at #UBC, the Hakai Institute and the University of Washington have discovered the cause of a wasting disease that wiped out billions of sea stars: science.ubc.ca/news/2025-08/d…

A new paper featuring Hakai Institute researchers reveals that the tidal swamps of the Pacific Northwest, alongside mangroves in Mexico, stash away the largest amounts of carbon on the Pacific coast of North America. Full paper with regional estimates🔗 tinyurl.com/mteynyzw
Excitement is building for the 12th iteration of the Aquatic Virus Workshop to be held at the fantastic Oceanologic Observatory in Banyuls-sur-Mer, France during 5-9 May 2025. We have a great lineup of speakers, and a nascent website: avw12.sciencesconf.org/?lang=en
Viruses never cease to amaze us, and this is another example of the many evolutionary innovations that viruses has given rise to in order to carry out the most basic cellular processes. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Vertebrate genomes contain millions of DNA sequences derived from ancient viruses. In work published today in Genome Biology, we provide a panoramic overview of these endogenous viral elements. shorturl.at/eGLX7 #Evolution #Virology #Genomics
Do endogenous virophages protect their protist hosts from giant viruses? For the marine heterotrophic flagellate Cafeteria sp., it very much seems so. Congrats to Anna Koslová, @th4ckl and co-workers at @mpi_mr_hd on a new study published in @PNASNews ! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
Hot off the press! doi.org/10.1128/aem.00…. Our experiment reveals a fascinating duality: Pacific oyster spat microbiomes are resilient to ocean acidification yet vulnerable to rising temperatures, a new insight on how #ClimateChange may impact on oyster spat microbiomes.
When it comes to reducing climate pollution, Canada is by far the worst performer in the G7 @bsaxifrage

From the deep ocean to the atmosphere, long-term research is key to understanding Earth’s complex systems. But to keep these studies going, scientists often have to swim against the current. Read on in "Going Deep: The Perils and Promise of Long Science." cioospacific.ca/applied-data/g…

The role of viruses that infect crustacean zooplankton is enigmatic and has been difficult to unravel. @alastairjrobrts reviews what is known and explores potential impacts of viruses of zooplankton in this OA contribution mdpi.com/2076-2607/11/4… @UBCoceans @UBCeoas
Interested in the Anthropocene, the impact of human activity, or why we are trying to define it? Join us today with @kl13c at 1 pm MT on Zoom to hear all about Kendra's research @UBC. Looking to get a Zoom link, send us a message! See you in just over an hour 😍
In this review, Ratnarajah et al. examine key responses of zooplankton to ocean warming, highlight key knowledge and geographic gaps that need to be addressed, and discuss better use of observations and long-term zooplankton monitoring programmes. nature.com/articles/s4146…
