Enter the 'mudtropolis' 🪱 Our researchers from @ExeterMarine @tarracuda_ @MaraFischr and Ben Harris invite you to meet the carbon-cycling creatures thriving beneath the seabed. Discover why this alien world is so important in @ConversationUK 👇 https://t.co/1RKJksgVBM

There is a diversity of life within our seabeds, capable of moving mountains of mud and slowing the effects of climate change.

Mud, glorious mud! 💩 @ConvexSeascape is shedding light on the importance of seabed ecosystems for carbon storage and biodiversity 🪱 They're showing that our seabeds are a bustling "mudtropolis" of life that locks carbon deep in the sediment 🔒 https://t.co/GjnvS7bULX

With evidence dating algae to over 3 billion years, it’s one of the oldest organisms on our planet. Watch this video to see just how long ago that is! 👀 #Ocean #MarineScience #ConvexSeascapeSurvey #Algae

Algae are among the oldest life forms on Earth, with evidence dating back over 3 billion years. 🌍️ By uncovering how these ancient organisms capture and store carbon, we can enhance conservation efforts and develop strategies to protect our oceans and the planet. 🌊

🌊 To uncover the carbon storing secrets of the seabed, we’re travelling the world to take sediment cores from protected areas and compare them to regions impacted by trawling and dredging. 🌍 The goal? To see how bottom trawling affects the seabed’s ability to capture and store

Have you ever wondered how the ocean is linked to climate change? We've teamed up with @encounteredu to create materials that answer your questions and teach kids about climate and the oceans! For instance did you know that mangroves can store three to five times more carbon
