After beautiful salt marshes comes bathroom science in the #Shetlands for NORSEAT PROJECT looking for #microfauna More to come 🤩



Another day, another salt marsh. Took the last microfauna samples today and found a very nice sand/mixed flat and a very quickly rising tide right after low tide (7 minutes between pic 2 and 3). Subsequently, back-yard science/lab 👩🏻🔬 NORSEAT PROJECT Geological Survey BE Sue Dawson


#GSBprojects Het project #NORSEAT zoekt en onderzoekt tsunami-afzettingen voor de kust van Shetland (UK) en reconstrueert relatief zeeniveau en golfhoogte met gebruik van #geofysica, #sedimentologie, #micropaleontology, ism BGD, UGent, University of Dundee, Universidade de Coimbra, Uni Heidelberg


Brainstorm session to analyze the amazing NORSEAT PROJECT seismic profiles and select the most optimal coring locations for HowBigIsBelgica.be campaign this coming September @MaartenVanDaele ERICK Sue Dawson PedroJMCosta @drmaex Vanessa Heyvaert Dr. Juliane Scheder



After a bumpy ride to the Shetland Islands this afternoon (so a very silent ship 😁), we arrived a little bit sooner than expected. Ideal to get acquainted with everything and to start gathering multibeam data. More info: odnature.naturalsciences.be/belgica/nl/cam… HowBigIsBelgica.be NORSEAT PROJECT


Everything went incredibly smooth today HowBigIsBelgica.be. Until I was ready to do some sports when a mail arrived that we didn't had all permits 🤯 Agree if it was really important but I have a feeling this only bureaucratic stuff. Now on it to solve it. NORSEAT PROJECT


My first time looking at CT scans of wonderful Shetland cores NORSEAT PROJECT Sue Dawson Marc De Batist ERICK Vanessa Heyvaert @drmaex @MaartenVanDaele PedroJMCosta


The NORSEAT PROJECT project team in action again: sampling the HowBigIsBelgica.be sediment cores from the #Shetland Islands in search of tsunami deposits and sea-level indicators Sue Dawson Dr. Juliane Scheder ERICK Vanessa Heyvaert @drmaex @MaartenVanDaele PedroJMCosta


The NORSEAT PROJECT tool box (geophysics, vibrocores, MSCL/CT scans) helps us identifying tsunami deposits ✅and sea-level indicators ✅in our cores from the #Shetland Islands Sue Dawson ERICK Dr. Juliane Scheder Vanessa Heyvaert @drmaex @MaartenVanDaele PedroJMCosta


BELQUA Annual Workshop continued… Juliana Scheder presents a data-filled talk about the Belspo funded NORSEAT PROJECT project Sue Dawson ERICK Dr. Juliane Scheder Vanessa Heyvaert @drmaex @MaartenVanDaele PedroJMCosta


Flanders Marine Institute - VLIZ Marine Science Day #VMSD24: poster presentation by Rikza Nahar about results obtained the NORSEAT PROJECT project, funded by Belspo and conducted on board of HowBigIsBelgica.be


First visit at #EGU24 to present first results of modern samples for NORSEAT PROJECT Who is also here? Come talk to me at my poster (X4.73) tomorrow afternoon at Hall X4 ERICK will present first results on the offshore cores (poster X4.71); worth a visit! Geological Survey BE


It’s on! If you’re interested in the Shetlands‘ (UK) modern microfauna come visit me at my poster at #EGU24 X4.73 We have two NORSEAT PROJECT posters here 🌊 ERICK Marc De Batist Sue Dawson @drmaex PedroJMCosta @MaartenVanDaele Vanessa Heyvaert Geological Survey BE
