NEW RESEARCH The amount of data from PSATs affects movement reconstruction. For #bluefin #tuna and Wildlife Computers GPE3 & PSATs >30% is required. This will vary between applications, and we provide a framework for assessing how much data is enough... -> rdcu.be/dBKzu

Great talk today by @CezzaLew explaining why mud matters 🪱 and how we need transdisciplinary approaches to tackle global challenges. 🌏 Highlighting some of our ongoing work as part of the Convex Seascape Survey Survey 🌊




Want to learn more about how the ocean absorbs and releases carbon? Watch this video, where Dan Ford, from the University of Exeter, breaks down how the Convex Seascape Survey is proving that the ocean plays a more important role in the global carbon cycle than we realise.

We’re back at @FSC_Millport for 🎬2 of the Great British Bioturbationathon as part of Convex Seascape Survey. 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 🌟


In case you missed it, we were thrilled to have been featured in The Times and The Sunday Times over the weekend. University of Exeter and Convex Seascape Survey researcher Dr. Ceri Lewis spoke about her obsession with mud whilst ConvexIn's Stephen Catlin talked about why the research is so important. To


Slightly broken now, but had a fantastic time running experiments for our Convex Seascape Survey project with @CezzaLew and Adam Porter on the lovely Isle of Cumbrae. Looking forward to seeing the results @ProfBenthos OceanEarthUniSoton University of Southampton
