We enjoyed engaging with Icelandic University students, professors and embassy officials this week ahead of the #JC269 expedition - onboard the #RRSJamesCook! 🛳️

PML marine biologist Dr @SaskiaRuehl is in the North Atlantic as part of the BIO-Carbon #JC269 expedition. She's studying "marine snow" (made up of organic detritus) and its role in the #carbon cycle. Thanks to Arianwen Z Herbert for the action shots #marinebiology #expedition

CTD deployment: a story in four parts. On #JC269 we deploy 2 CTDs on station days. They contain sensors which transmit real-time data as they descend a km below the surface, and bring back water samples for analysis of biological matter and abiotic factors 🌊🦠🔬 BIO-Carbon

Our #JC269 expedition is well underway onboard the #RRSJamesCook! 🌊 Scientists are collecting rare datasets, helping to deliver the next generation of climate modelling to correctly account for how marine life is helping the ocean store carbon. bio-carbon.ac.uk/news/scientist…

An absolutely breathtaking royal escort for the RRS James Cook on expedition #JC269 today🐬 Without a doubt one of the most stunning things I have ever witnessed. Feeling grateful to be an oceanographer today 🌊 BIO-Carbon #dolphins #marinebiology

A bleary-eyed 5am good luck to the final deployment of #JC269 🤩 Autonomy is a big focus of BIO-Carbon, with floats and gliders allowing for longer time series' than expeditions alone ⛵️ Looking forward to the data this one will send home! Flavien Petit National Oceanography Centre LABO LOV

How do mesopelagic fishes shape the ocean’s carbon cycle? BIO-Carbon findings will help scientists better understand this and improve predictions of how changing ocean conditions might affect fish populations and the ocean carbon cycle.🐟 Read more: bio-carbon.ac.uk/news/learning-…
