My first job out of undergrad where I was part of a long-term data collection for 2.5 years. Beyond the amazing experience, this appointment helped me decide that graduate school was for me. Very grateful to have been included!

Last week we came across a non native, drifting bull kelp (Durvillea) in Ryder Bay @BAS_News Rafts can transport other non native species to the continent. We found open water goose barnacles (Lepas australis). These are not a threat but harmful invaders can also hitch a ride

#Weather week: this Automated Weather Station (AWS) set up on Anchorage Island, #antarctica measures temperature humidity of air soil, PAR and wind speeds. Gathers data for terrestrial experiments in the area. Needs calibrating (⬇️fancy barometer) and check over once a year.

Celebrating #PolarPride . Diversity and different perspectives form the basis of science and research. Let's celebrate it among the community, not suppress it. Twin Otter landing in the background for good measure. #PolarPride2022 @BAS_News

From ROV to diving Monitoring the feeding activity in antarctic benthic suspension feeders using an ROV mounted GoPro during the polar winter. We are now back to using divers to conduct this survey. Clear upregulation of feeding activity in response to the summer bloom #Ecology

This survey constitutes part of the long term marine monitoring. The team visit this dive site, Beautiful Bulge, once a month. Check out the spetacular explosion of colour and life! Photos from ROV surveys conducted by Marine Biologist @nadiafrontier & boating officer Louis Day

Flying into Rothera research station. Can you spot the runway (bottom left)? Check out Sheldon #glacier on the right. It’s been increasingly receding over the last decades, tracked by @BAS_News scientists via satellite imagery. #frozenplanet @BAS_News #Antarctica

The Dash on it's second flight back north this season. The Dash will fly the Punta Arenas to Rothera leg over 30 times this year bringing support staff and scientists onto the continent. It'll also do some supply runs to Sky Blu and conduct Aero Surveys. @BAS_News

Plankton trawling has given an insight into what is living in the water column around the Rothera research station. A recent study conducted by Alice Clement has identified a range of organisms from amphipods to larval stages of benthic organisms (1/2) #larvalecology #Antarctica

After a series of vertical trawls were undertaken, zooplankton catch was identified and quantified. This information helps us understand more about planktonic diversity and changes with depth across the seasons (2/2) #plantkon @BAS_News
