Estuaries are well renowned as some of the most productive and ecologically diverse ecosystems on the planet. As a result, fish across all life history (larval to adult) often inhabit estuaries due to their suitable biotic and abiotic conditions. However, not only do they house high abundances of fish species but their ability to provide ecosystem services for humans has quickly made them one of the most urbanised ecosystems on the globe. To accommodate these higher population densities boating infrastructure such as overwater structures (OWS) have proliferated throughout estuaries globally. The presence of these structures can lead to seagrass loss by reducing sunlight and changing the local hydrodynamics of waterways. As seagrass is an important nursery habitat for a wide range of fish species and used across multiple life history stages, the increase in OWS may have significant impacts on fish populations that require seagrass for completion of their life history.

people lived and died. as bones get cleaned, we ll find pathologies. they can tell us about health, tell us, in some cases, about work. we have some teeth that are very worn in kind of a funny way that might indicate the use of teeth as tools maybe for textile work, leatherwork, basketry, where they re pulling something through their front teeth. so, all together, we ll have a really good not only life history of these people, but also a community history. got something that looks like glass. pick it out carefully. what s being found alongside the skeletons is posing even more of a puzzle. it is glass. a shard of fine french glass has just been discovered. hopefully, the rim from a cone beaker. so which would have looked like an ice cream cone and it probably was imported alongside wine in barrels from the bordeaux region of france. a really nice find. it s just one of an array of artifacts from fragments of pottery,
