🟢 PHD THESIS simolab 🟢 "Unravelling protist trophic relationships at the microscale: Insights from chemotactic interactions and responses to light-stress events” by Queralt Güell Bujons 🗓️Tomorrow 17/09 11am, Conference Room Ramon Margalef ICM-CSIC

Check out our new paper in Biogeosciences on the comparison of approaches to obtain monthly global distributions of the DMS concentration in the surface ocean. Led by the Dr. Anoop Sharad Mahajan group. DMS has recently increased by 2-3% per decade. bg.copernicus.org/articles/21/44…

And a sister paper on DMS emission fluxes from the ocean. Dr. Anoop Sharad Mahajan ICM-CSIC Biogeosciences bg.copernicus.org/articles/21/44…

A true privilege to listen to Peter S. Liss at the SOLAS OSC in Goa, India. He told us how he developed the first parameterization of air-sea gas exchange in the 70s and 80s. He also called our attention onto microplastics in the atmosphere. SOLAS

Rafel talking at the SOLAS OSC in Goa (India) about global ocean emissions of methanethiol to the atmosphere and their radiative impacts on climate. To be read in a paper coming out very soon. Later, enjoying a lovely evening with the SOLAS community.

Our new paper on marine methanethiol emission, which adds 25% more sulfur to known DMS emission. In the Southern Ocean in summer, this represents up to 50% more sulfate aerosol and up to 1.5 W/m2 of extra cooling. ICM-CSIC, IQF-CSIC & international team science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Merry Xmas and best wishes for 2025! Bones festes i els millors desitjos pel 2025! 2024 leaves us with a good #SUMMIT_Moorea feeling! 📽👉vimeo.com/manage/videos/…

Still another (14th) edition of the "little shepherds" of the ICM-CSIC, a humourous and rhymed chronicle of the year. Jokes, criticism, memories of the ones who have left, wishes and songs to laugh and celebrate. Performed by Eva, PepGasol, Eli, and Rafel simolab

New sources of methane have been discovered beneath the surface of the Antarctic seabed. It remains to be seen whether it is the retreating ice that is activating them or whether they are old active vents.

Leaving everything ready for the new upcoming simolab experiment: today, preparation of incubation tanks for measuring the degradation and production rates of sulfur volatile organic compounds (#VOCs) in seawater from Blanes Bay. #GOOSEproject

Liz Deschaseaux and Lide van Vuuren simolab analyzing volatile compounds from Blanes Bay waters by Segmented Flow Coil Equilibrator coupled to Proton Transfer Reaction time-of-flight Mass Spectrometry (Vocus, TOFWERK) TOFWERK

Incubation day of Blanes Bay water at the simolab. Targeting the degradation and production rates of dimethyl sulfide (#DMS) and methanethiol (#MeSH), two climatically-relevant volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Check out our new publication, led by Christel Hassler at EPFL. In the Fe-limited Southern Ocean, most of the organic ligands that maintain Fe available for life are produced on site by phytoplankton and bacteria. Samuel Jaccard @NisotopesCT ICM-CSIC nature.com/articles/s4146…

Last week the simolab members elisabeth deschaseaux and Lide JvV shipped instruments to Southampton for the CARES cruise, led by Plymouth Marine Lab A 5 weeks long cruise to the N Atlantic on board of the RV Discovery. The team will be doing #VOC by #PTRMS for #climatechange research.

ICM simolab volatile team sailing on the #Discovery tomorrow morning, 8am UTC time for a 5-week campaign in the North Atlantic Ocean.✨ elisabeth deschaseaux lidejvv

First CTD cast for sulfur incubation today on board the RV Discovery. Pre-dawn conditions to look at the effect of #photochemistry on the removal rates of key #sulfur #volatiles simolab elisabeth deschaseaux lidejvv

Our new paper is out in PNAS on the use of the outcomes of Earth System Models to project a future increase in global sulfur emissions from the ocean as climate warms. Led by Anoop Mahajan's group at IITM Pune, India

🌊 La recerca que ens fa somiar ✨, amb incognitaag 🔬 Des de petit, Rafel Simó somiava amb l’oceà. Avui, la seva recerca el guia com una brúixola cap a un futur millor. 📽️ Descobreix la seva història: unagranhistoria.icm.csic.es/project/un-via…  📸Joan de la Malla
