Looking forward to answering some of the big questions around the carbon risks associated with anthropogenic disturbance of marine sediments with such a diverse team.
I'm very happy to hear yesterday that our NERC Highlight Topic proposal on "Impacts of bottom trawling on seabed carbon storage" is going to be funded!
It's been a long process from writing the HT idea over a year ago and the proposal this spring.
