More #NASA #PACE work onboard the RVAE!

This time #ASU graduate student Ceridwyn Hunter, part of the Hochberg lab @biosstation.bsky.social, takes radiometric measurements at #BATS. She takes these measurements when the satellite is passing right over us!

A cool anglerfish that decided to go to the epipelagic at night to eat!! Sorry little guy, it was not our intention to get you in our net!

Using strobe lights attached to the MOCNESS tows significantly increases the capture of krill and other large crustaceans. The flashing disorients these macrozooplankton, so they can not efficiently avoid the net.

During this cruise, we are working together with another #NASA team, merging out #PACE and #NIGHTBLUE projects interests. We are looking at the LIDAR data, comparing it to echosounder and net zooplankton data. Go #NASA teams!!

Maria Pita (together with other women) led the defense against Drake's English Armada attack in Coruña. They forced the English troops away from the walls of the city, and kept the city safe from plunder
