A long-term time series for plankton and benthic monitoring, established in 1968
Spectacular plankton sampling days, especially in Feb.

A talk by Hannah Lloyd-Hartley to the Natural History Society of Northumbria, "Zooplankton of the Northumberland Coast: Importance and Monitoring". This was showcasing the key role of zooplankton, some of the species found in the local area and why monitoring and mitigation are needed.

Our oceans are quickly losing their ability to support fish populations

Recent research has unveiled a concerning trend: climate change is stealthily undermining the ocean’s capacity to sustain plankton, resulting in the rapid decline of fish populations.

Researchers Parse the Future of Plankton in an Ever-Warmer World
Plankton form the base of the world’s food chain, but warmer and more acidic oceans are affecting their numbers and variety. Some species, which make for good fish food and carbon storage, are largely...

Thanks @jens-d-mueller.bsky.social for posting on the RECCAP-2 ocean biological pump paper, quantifying model & observed production, export & sinking flux with depth of particulate organic carbon. Research was supported in my group from @microbialplanet.bsky.social

Planktonic gastropods use their 'foot' to swim. Essentially using them as 'wings'.

Excited to share that the final portion of my PhD with @lanelaburi.bsky.social is published!

We used 18S metabarcoding to characterize marine protist communities and the abiotic, biotic, and anthropogenic drivers structuring these communities across Indonesia

We used DNA metabarcoding data collected along the Swedish marine coastline monitoring program. Data from 2019-2020:

We used spike-in DNA allowing us to go beyond relative values and capture the dynamics of major microbial plankton groups.

Nice next results from the strong @unidue @Senckenberg 🔬🧬collaboration: DNA metabarcoding & morphological identification reveal similar richness, taxonomic composition and body size patterns among flying insect communities 🐝🪰🦋. 👏🏼 Nicole Remmel resjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

A stage 2 lobster larvae rarely makes an appearance in the Dove Time Series. It's good to see them especially in this good condition.
