Looking back. A lot happened last week.. 1/3 We successfully sampled for trace metals and isotopes from underneath drifting sea ice floes of the Weddell Sea. #AntarcticPICCOLO University of Leeds Plymouth Marine Lab UEA School of Environmental Sciences University of Plymouth University of St Andrews British Antarctic Survey 🐧


2/3 We collected our final water samples for analysis on #AntarcticPICCOLO - More than 24,700 litres of water processed for GEOTRACES University of Leeds University of Plymouth UEA School of Environmental Sciences Plymouth Marine Lab University of St Andrews British Antarctic Survey 🐧


3/3 Chiara Krewer and I might have set an ‘important’ new record too. Did we play the first ever game of chess on an ice floe in the Weddell Sea during #AntarcticPICCOLO?

For #InternationalWomensDay we want to highlight the excellent leadership of Prof. Karen Heywood at UEA School of Environmental Sciences - just finishing the very successful #AntarcticPICCOLO cruise for #Roses_PICCOLO. On the #SDA British Antarctic Survey 🐧 ship. A great role model for all the young scientists on board.
