#spongethursday #SeaRover2019 Here is a closer look at Hyalonema the tulip sponge and its glass roots <insert pun here> (those are zoanthid anemones up the stem) @MarineInst @EU_MARE @npwsBioData @agriculture_ie @Dept_CCAE @PlymUniMI @DeepSeaCRU

“There’s not much more to life than Ducks and Capybaras” 💕
I’ve just been informed by @ReganDrennan there is an area of the internet dedicated to Capybaras enjoying being surrounded by other animals. This has made my day. Two of my favourite animals feature in this one:

In case you missed it, check out our latest paper on how artificial intelligence (AI) could help us speed up the rate at which we gather knowledge of the #deepsea and #highseas plymouth.ac.uk/news/study-ex… @NERCscience @DeepSeaCRU @deepseaecol @NPiechaud x.com/PlymUni/status/1126748…

Great presentation by @herre_san on work to model population connectivity of corals on the Gulf of Mexico. Larvae staying at depth of release. Similar observation to @_deeplinks

@DeepSeaEcol (head of @DeepSeaCRU) presenting @_deeplinks modelling results: ~50% Lophelia larvae settle in depth band of origin and bathyal peak in escapees from seamount. Better escape if passive, better depth mixing if swimming. Will compare to genetics soon. #DSBS2018

@nicola_foster - checking how many images you need to analyse and how often to adequately represent community. Depends on substrate and different intervals sample either alpha or beta diversity. Must ensure adequate transect length! #DSBS2018 @DeepSeaCRU @_deeplinks

Footage from our #DeepLinks research cruise shows some of the amazing life found in the Anton Dohrn Seamount #MarineProtectedArea just off the coast of the UK #deepsea x.com/JNCC_UK/status/1009026…
230km west of the Outer Hebrides is an underwater extinct volcano, the Anton Dohrn Seamount #MarineProtectedAreas . Home to wonderful corals and sponges and sadly also a crisp packet – 2000m down! @Oceanwarrior @Deeplinks #breakfreefromplastic bit.ly/2JQA9uj

The Southern #NorthSea is important for both man & beast! It provides food for #seabirds, seals & harbour porpoise, as well as supporting EU #fishing fleets & is a source of #oilandgas for the UK. View the full video on #MPAs located there at bit.ly/SouthernNorthSea @CefasGovUK

#ThursdayThoughts~10,000 years ago you could have visited Europe from the UK by foot when Dogger Bank #MPA was dry land! Now submerged, the UK’s largest sandbank gives protection to habitats which support a rich variety of #MarineLife #NorthSea bit.ly/DoggerBank @CefasGovUK
