Fascinating talk from @sarabenelli.bsky.social about the role of macrophytes and macrofauna in controlling freshwater #biogeochemistry and keeping methane locked into #sediments. Really interesting seeing this next to our marine work!

A pleasure to be at the South West Marine Ecosystem conference today at @pml.ac.uk
Hearing from 40+ researchers, citizen scientists, and practitioners in a sold room.
A great conference looking at the stresses on and positives found on the marine environment in the South West.
Certainly not for the hump or in a flap getting here. Very cool to have a conference at @zslofficial.bsky.social London Zoo. Excited to kick off the @bes-aquaticgroup.bsky.social annual meeting!

If you build it⦠they will submit abstracts...
The scientists are amassing for @agu.org and this morning we have a anthropogenic impacts in #bluecarbon session this morning.
@exetermarine.bsky.social @cefasgovuk.bsky.social @bluemarinef.bsky.social
I'll be showcasing all we have learnt on www.convexseascapesurvey.com, opening the can of worms that is invertebrate contributions to carbon cycling on the seafloor.
Come see my poster...WORMS WITH BENEFITS...
Monday 4 - 6pm CM14A
#OSM26
@exetermarine.bsky.social @bluemarinef.bsky.social
Flying up to Glasgow @agu.org #OSM26 to join 1000s of ocean scientists to chat about everything from climate physics to deep-sea microbes.
If it happens in/on/because of the ocean, someone is presenting on it.
Yesβ¦ including worms mixing mud πͺ±ππ€

Great talk from @drplanktonpoo.bsky.social Krill Poo may sequester as much #carbon as mangroves AND we're messing that up by fishing them out. The fishery near Antarctica shut early for the first time ever due to record catch numbers (because of more fishing) @bes-aquaticgroup.bsky.social
Excited to be winging my way to London for the @bes-aquaticgroup.bsky.social annual meeting! A first for me and excited to share mud and worm updates from the #ConvexSeascapeSurvey

Working on bugs in mud is a hard sell but if you're at #OSM26 and interested in how worms in seafloor mud might affect ecosystem function and carbon sequestration come and chat to me
Poster 729 @ 4pm TODAY (23/02)

Interesting findings from @samuelmacaulay.bsky.social presenting his findings with MRES students on enhanced rock weathering as a Carbon Dioxide Removal tool and it's effects on riverine benthic species under experimental conditions with addition of rock material ππ»
