  1. #Seaweed forests are widely viewed as natural climate solutions, but warming oceans are driving their rapid decline. Karen Filbee-Dexter, @twernberg &co reveal that losses are outpacing restoration efforts by orders of magnitude, raising urgent concerns @PLOSBiology plos.io/4iTdhtg

  6. A short trip to the Dutch province of #Zeeland to be with the sea and to cut some #seaweed for kitchen experiments. We took part in a workshop and so were permitted to cut seaweed - not allowed otherwise, for good reason.

    Some things we learned:

    - Always greet the sea.
    - Never pick, always cut, scissors are best. This preserves the holdfasts and allows the seaweed to regrow.
    - Cut only from the top 25% of the seaweed for maximum regrowth.
    - Cut off no more than one third of a piece of seaweed, again for regrowth.
    - All seaweeds in the Netherlands are #edible.
    - Seaweeds are family, treat them with respect.

    We ended up with a nice little treasure chest full of about a dozen species of seaweed. We've fried it, eaten it raw in various permutations, will dry some of it, and keep experimenting.

  7. Day 26 #SciArtSeptember prompt forage. My #linocut of #botanist Isabella Aiona Abbott (1919-2010), renown algae expert, celebrated seaweed cook, devoted teacher and mentor, expert on Hawaiian ethnobotany, the first Indigenous Hawaiian woman to earn a doctorate in science and the first woman or person of colour to become a full professor on Stanford’s biology faculty. 🧵

  8. The paper-making industry would inspire the creation of nori (海苔) in the 18thC.
    Using similar techniques to paper production, seaweed was shredded, moulded and dried on racks, creating sheets of edible algae.
    Nori would come to play an important role in Japanese cuisine🙌

  9. Until the early Edo period villagers had harvested naturally growing algae by hand (in the 8thC it is recorded that some fishermen paid their taxes to the emperor in kelp), but farming allowed for cheaper and more readily available seaweed (a valuable food source in winter).

  10. Drew-Baker was the first person to discover how porphyra worked, which enabled Segawa Sōkichi (with Drew-Baker's advice and the assistance of other marine biologists) to save the seaweed industry in Japan (which in the post-war period likely saved many livelihoods and many lives).

  11. Drew-Baker's research into the mysterious life cycle of 'porphyra' solved the problem of how to artificially seed seaweed🙌

    It is no exaggeration to say that Drew-Baker inadvertently saved Japan's entire seaweed industry.

    Marine biologist Segawa Sōkichi (瀬川宗吉) read about her detailed findings in 'Nature' magazine in 1949 and was finally able to piece together how to revitalise seaweed production.

  13. My friend, Tom, is a private #gourmet chef & he also teaches about #WildFoods #foraging, harvesting from wild nature & cooking with wild foods. He taught a seaweed #ForagingWorkshop recently, at Whiffin Spit.

    Check out his website, for info on past & upcoming events. Next #EducationalWorkshop is in late June - Cooking In Nature.
