Welcome to the Drifters official Twitter page! We are a group of research scientists and students based in Nipaluna/ Tasmania @imas_utas studying all things #Zooplankton. We mostly focuses on the Southern ocean but also venture into the temperate waters around our little island.

👏 Congrats to AAPP/@IMASUTAS PhD student Pimnara ‘Nia’ Riengchan on landing an award from the Holsworth Wildlife Research Endowment. Nia studies how ocean acidification affects the shell-building of planktonic sea snails (pteropods) in the Southern Ocean.

Are you interested in the pathways krill take as they are washed around Antarctica, and how that may change in the future? New #PhD project at @IMASUTAS with me and @AbigailJRSmith
