The decomposition dynamics of 3 important #kelp species in the Northeast Atlantic with focus on the loss of dissolved carbon. We found that DOC is released in large amounts initially, providing valuable data around the complex processes involved in #carbon cycling of kelps.

On #InternationalDayOfForests, let's consider the forests we don't often see.
Kelp forests in our seas act as nurseries and food sources, provide coastline protection and absorb CO2.

This nudibranch has a heart shaped fluorescent part just behind its mouth. Loch Creran, Scotland.

Carronella pellucida is one of the most special nudibranchs we have in Scotland. Especially under blue lights! Check out this one from Loch Creran

Our new report on the changing state of Scotland's rocky seashores is out today. Changes from 2014-15 to 2020-22 in many species, including an ongoing decline in mussels. 167 sites in 3 years www.nature.scot/doc/naturesc...

One of these northern lights photos is from #scotland and one of them is from #iceland, can you guess which is which?

Kelp from the Falls of Lora, Connel, Scotland. Just as the tide is turning and the current is starting to pick up! 🦑

Another #fluorescent beauty, the grey sea slug (Aeolidia papillosa) is anything but grey under blue lights! This #nudibranch is quite common in #Scotland
