Accurate assessment of the carbon export flux is crucial for estimating the magnitude of the biological pump, a critical component of the global carbon cycle.  However, this flux is challenging to measure and therefore complementary approaches are usually combined to estimate it. The use of radioactive pair disequilibrium, particularly Th-234 / U-238, is one of the most popular methods.…

Angelee Annasawmy has created a great new board game, based on results of her research. 

The game is called "Micronekton & Eddies" and can be played by 6 players at a time. The objective is for each player to perform diel vertical migrations while avoiding predators and being carried away by eddies. 

This game has served as an…

We will be highlighting a few areas every 6 months as ones particularly deserving of attention, in the hope of stimulating new activities within our community. For all of them we encourage you to think across the full range of possible activities: research ideas, technology, cruises in geographical gaps, new proposals, policy work, education materials…anything. Get creative!

Join us at sea and onshore! Ocean Exploration Trust seeks out new discoveries in geology, biology, and archaeology while exploring little-known regions of the world’s oceans, and shares expeditions with explorers around the world via live telepresence. The international Nautilus Corps of Exploration consists of engineers, scientists,…

I have been analysing the elemental composition of jellyfish species from the Cameroon area. My aim is to produce a paper on the potential contribution of jellyfish to the carbon sink, using the available C, H, N, S data for our jellyfish species coupled to their abundance in the region. 

I am seeking a collaboration for the molecular characterization of our…
