Kelp makes a comeback! 🌿⁠ ⁠ A new UCLA study shows that Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in Southern California help kelp forests bounce back faster after extreme marine heat waves. 🔥⁠ ⁠ Here’s why it matters:⁠ 🐟 MPAs protect predators that keep sea urchins (kelp grazers) in check.⁠ 🌱 Healthier balance = stronger, more resilient kelp forests.⁠ 🌍 Resilient ecosystems = better climate defense for our coasts.⁠ ⁠ Read more here: https://newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/marine-protected-areas-protect-help-climate-change #helpthekelp #kelpforest #kelp #kelprestoration #climatechange #climateaction #globalwarming #heatwave #urchinbarren #marinescience #marinebiology #ocean #oceanlife #sealife #diving #scuba #scubadiving #monterey #california #californiacoast #channelislands #catalina #underthesea #conservation #environment (fb)
