(1/5) It's #WorldOceanDay 🌊 and today we're using #MethodsMonday to spotlight recent articles in #ASLO_Methods advancing innovation in marine research tools and approaches.
From getting better measurements of respiratory COâ‚‚ from suspension feeders to simulating heatwaves in the lab using a low-cost, automated setup, new methods are improving how we study environmental change. Advances in optical imaging complement traditional plankton surveys across diverse marine environments, while tools like the IceShark make it possible to sample plankton beneath sea ice.
Check out the highlights below 👇
