New paper alert! Our recent review paper highlights novel #plankton monitoring technologies which are changing the way we understand our oceans, and presents a set of recommendations for integrating these technologies with existing long-term monitoring programmes: doi.org/10.1016/j.oc...

Check out our new paper discussing the importance of maintaining long-term #plankton monitoring time-series to reveal important changes in our oceans, and how imaging and molecular techniques can complement, rather than replace existing monitoring programmes: doi.org/10.1016/j.oc...

American stories burning before me.
I'm feeling helpless, the damsels are depressed.
Boys will be boys then, where are the wise men?
Darling, I'm scared.
The whole place is rolling fake dice.
You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.

More @CPRSurvey love, this time from @PlymUni @MatthewMHolland who used CPR data to look at plankton lifeforms for @osparcomm and UK biodiversity assessment.

What a joke. I'm booked on the first train out of Plymouth to London at 0825 and it's been cancelled, along with the 0915, due to lack of staff. Thankfully, I'm not trying to get a flight! Sort it out @GWRHelp 😡😡😡

£86 one way to sit on the floor outside the train toilet. This is pathetic. And the toilet doesn't work. @CrossCountryUK
