Ground-breaking tests in our flume over the last weeks will contribute to the offshore wind industry developing in a sustainable way. Collaboration is key in this @NERCscience-funded @ECOWind_UK project, which will assess structures' ecological impacts. #flumefriday

Great day at @hrwallingford as part of @NERCscience @ECOWind_UK project. Amazing to see scaled experiments that are assessing seabed impacts of offshore wind structures in the huuuge flume facilities being run expertly by @UnsteadyRiver and @cjbmccarron.

Very excited to to get started on the #ECOWindACCELERATE project with @sos_bangor_uni Investigating future hydrodynamics around #OffshoreWind, the effects on #seabed processes, #marine biodiversity and #seabirds
ecowind.uk
Connecting science and policy for the coexistence of offshore wind and thriving marine ecosystems
We're delighted to be a partner on this exciting new initiative. #renewableenergy #marinelife #biodiversity

Interested in turbulent flows and seabed scour? Check out this post-doc at @sos_bangor_uni working with colleagues at @hrwallingford
Post-doc in Coastal #Oceanography at @sos_bangor_uni available. @EPSRC @SupergenORE project on turbulent tidal flows and scour initiation around subsea cables. Field experiments with a real piece of inter-array cable. More ship work to follow in 2021. https://t.co/3yX1sAbzdd

Anglesey friends, check out this physical model of Holyhead breakwater!
This spring, we built a model of a grade II* listed breakwater in Holyhead. Tests are now helping @RHDHV_UK protect a vital ferry link with Ireland. Here's how. NB some of the work was completed in February, before our COVID-19 health and safety procedures were implemented.

Totally engrossed in this stunning geological map of Ireland by @geo_spatialist the visual perception it provides is incredible!
I had some requests for Ireland...so: Geological map of Ireland founded on the maps of the Geological Survey of Sir Richard Griffith and of Profr. J. Beete Jukes / by Edward Hull,M.A. F.R.S - 1878 #arcgispro #blender #Ireland #Copernicus #maps #map #gis #geological
