Eruptive activity wiped out all the habitats at Tica - a famous site among hydrothermal vent scientists.
An ERC-funded fluid chemistry team led by Mustafa Yucel are busy understanding the effects on deep-ocean chemistry.

Volcanic Eruption in Deep Ocean Ridge Is Witnessed by Scientists for First Time
Researchers diving in a submersible in the eastern Pacific realized that the landscape they had studied the day before had been glassed over by fresh lava.

🚨New preprint alert!🚨
We mapped Mo-dependent pathways across microbes and show this reliance emerged before oxygen showed up. Our results challenge assumptions about Mo scarcity on early Earth. Study led by Aya Klos!
Biology’s been metal since the very beginning🤘

Finally on board R/V Atlantis and on our way to East Pacific Rise 9 north. The team met with the submarine Alvin for the first time. We’re busy preparing labs, with safety briefings and science meetings. @whoi.edu @erc.europa.eu

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to shine the spotlight on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research.

We talk a lot about ocean warming and ocean acidification... but we should also be talking more about ocean deoxygenation, as it is an ongoing problem. To understand just how bad it can get (extinction event bad), we must turn, as usual, to the geological record. 🧪⚒️🌊

Countdown for April 2025 Alvin Pacific expedition is on! We will participate in this @UDelaware -led expedition in the frame of our @ERC_Research DeepTrace project. So excited to be back to this special area of the world ocean once again.
Stay tuned for updates!

The ocean takes up anthropogenic CO₂ emissions, 26% on average over the past decade.
The #GlobalCarbonBudget 2024 confirms that the ocean sink increased in 2023 after 3 years of stagnation due to rare triple La Niña event. 2023 was an El Niño year, with an expected increase in the sink.

There's not much good news about the new Global Carbon Budget, but here's one.
Two methods are used to estimate the ocean carbon sink; the final number (10.6 ± 1.5 GtCO₂/yr in 2023) is an average. A few years ago, there was a huge discrepancy between the two methods but they're converging. 🌊

The ocean carbon sink, estimated by Global Ocean Biogeochemical Models and observation-based data products, amounts to 10.5 ± 1.5 GtCO2/yr for 2014–2023 and 10.6 ± 1.5 GtCO2/yr in 2023.
The ocean sink increased in 2023, in line with the expected sink response to the 2023 El Niño conditions.

So, is anyone interested in and wants to follow people doing marine biogeochemistry?
I might have a starter pack for you!
(also, I blame @malinodalen.bsky.social for this)

Spot anyone not there (maybe you?), say something.

Preparations for our busy @ERC_Research DeepTrace 2025 field season have started. On board RV Lamas of @METU_IMS, we have successfully conducted the first underwater tests of the new deep-sea electrochemical analyzer, to be deployed over Pacific hydrothermal vents and Black Sea redox zone next year.
