Life on the rocks, part 2: The seashore as a window on the ocean

Join us for a fascinating journey through marine science with experimental ecologist Professor Stephen Hawkins.

The seashore is most people’s window on the ocean. In this episode, Professor Hawkins reviews the main threats to coastal seas, and asks, how do predictions of impacts on rocky shores hold up a quarter century on?

The Marine Biologist podcast goes deeper into topics covered in The Marine Biologist magazine. This episode expands on the article, Looking back looking shoreward, which appeared in the October 2025 edition.
