Congratulations to Samuel Bedgood, whose undergrad thesis research on movement in sea anemones was just published in Marine Biology! In this paper, Samuel describes how food availability and temperature-induced changes in symbiont density in the sea anemone Exaiptasia diaphana influence crawling behavior, detachment from the substratum and reattachment in a new location, and increased production of mobile asexual clones. The ability to disperse as adult could provide this species – typically thought of as sedentary – an advantage as environmental conditions change.
