Busy few days! Now we’re sampling the gasses, fluids and rocks of the Kolumbo volcano hydrothermal system to understand how these hydrothermal sites are outgassing the magmatic system. It’s bubbly! National Oceanography Centre UK Research and Innovation

Science is a team sport and we’re not the only people working around Santorini. Today we collected and redeployed two seismometers to assist our colleagues GEOMAR_en better monitor recent seismic activity. This is them before they went back into the water.

Recovering the final OBEM! We’ve deployed and recovered 67 instruments on this expedition and, while you never put anything you’re not willing to lose in the sea, it’s very nice to bring everything home. Thanks to the crew for their support with operations. National Oceanography Centre Natural Environment Research Council

Research led by Earth Sciences at the University of Manchester and co-led by NOC has discovered that deep-sea microplastic hotspots are created by fast-moving underwater avalanches. 🔁 Find out more about the powerful flows and their impacts on our website 📰 noc.ac.uk/news/scientist…

Thanks to Natural Environment Research Council for enabling this research which shows how turbidity currents transport and concentrate microplastics in the deep sea

If you’re interested in knowing more about our work in Santorini here is me talking for 2.5 minutes about what we’ve been doing and hope to achieve. Put together by our magnificent Comms Team and filmed by the brilliant Dan Bourne m.youtube.com/watch?v=6jFcT8…. National Oceanography Centre Natural Environment Research Council

🌋 NOC recently a groundbreaking expedition to Santorini, Greece, to help forecast and understand the hazards posed by Earth's most explosive volcanic eruptions. Find out about how #RRSDiscovery and our #ROV undertook the research on our website 📰 noc.ac.uk/news/scientist…

Scientists investigated hydrothermal venting, from seeps that form underwater lakes of carbon dioxide, to bubbly venting at temperatures up to and exceeding 200ºC. NOC leads expedition to forecast and understand hazards posed by volcanic eruptions 👉 noc.ac.uk/news/scientist…

Really enjoyed being interviewed on BBC Radio 5 Live today about National Oceanography Centre led Natural Environment Research Council funded work on submarine volcanic eruptions. If you want to hear more about underwater robots and my secret lair then give it a listen from about 2hrs 13 minutes in. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Having a lovely time at SubOptic 2025 in Lisbon this week. Really enjoyed today’s masterclass on fibre sensing - some great reasons to be hopeful for the future of deep ocean measurements.

A great second day at SubOptic 2025, including a fascinating talk by @mikeaclare National Oceanography Centre on the challenges of cable fault attribution and how hazards are not always coincident with events.

Our new paper on volcanoes and the subsea cable network, led by @mikeaclare National Oceanography Centre, is out today in Bulletin of Volcanology. Get it here: link.springer.com/article/10.100…
