Very excited to soon be starting a PhD with @ProfCallum @CezzaLew @UniofExeter as part of the @ConvexSeascapeSurvey, exploring the carbon storage potential of our beautiful ocean 💙. Kick-off @FSC_Millport as part of this crazy team has been wonderful!. 📷 @jarvismj @Bluemarinef

We’re back at @FSC_Millport for 🎬2 of the Great British Bioturbationathon as part of @ConvexSeascape. Soon, we’re heading out on the Actinia to grab our bioturbation stars. This year, we’re using C13 enhanced algae to trace the distribution of organic matter in the sediment 🌟

Last weekend's mixture of Convex HQ Kids Outreach ft. incredible materials by @encounteredu, a wholesome trip to @NHM_London with @MaraFischr, and a two day @ConvexSeascape conference in Windsor. Great to learn from colleagues and remember the context of it all!

Happy International Day of Women & Girls in Science 👩‍🔬. Here’s a shout out to all the amazing ladies I work with and have worked with in Marine Biology. And to any girls contemplating a career in science - go for it. You can do it, and you already “look like a scientist” 🧬

Breaking news in @FrontMarineSci on carbon released to the atmosphere by trawling and dredging. Our work as part of the @ConvexSeascape Survey will further quantify carbon stored in our continental shelf seas and the role of ecological communities in burying and suspending it 🪱.

🚨BREAKING: A new and pioneering study published in @FrontMarineSci estimates that around 50 per cent of the sediment carbon disturbed by trawling and dredging activity will end up in the atmosphere. Read more in @guardian @karenmcveigh1 👇.
