On #WorldOceansDay we asked our shipmates on #COMICS_Carbon cruise why they study the oceans. Follow our thread today to find out what they said National Oceanography Centre
Glider 'Doombar' recovered after a successful 4.5 month mission off Namibia from the COMICS project cruise. Go team GOCART! @StephAHenson Nathan Briggs @_Pipa_Carvalho National Oceanography Centre
Cleaning glider ‘Doombar’ before packing it away. Goose barnacles quickly attach themselves and don’t like to let go! COMICS project @StephAHenson National Oceanography Centre
The spike master Nathan Briggs gave a great talk at #Challenger2018 using backscatter spikes to look at particle fluxes, fascinating stuff!
Early career scientist interested in how marine life helps store carbon in the ocean? Check out this international workshop on the Twilight Zone next July - conference.noc.ac.uk/biarritz-works… #BIARRITZworkshop COMICS project GOCART project National Oceanography Centre

GOCART project deploys its first glider (called Pancake) to look at carbon flux on the COMICS project cruise!
The COMICS project cruise is all done - heading home with an amazing dataset on biological carbon in the twilight zone!
Team is in Walvis Bay, in Namibia, getting ready for GOCART project round 2! National Oceanography Centre @StephAHenson @_Pipa_Carvalho #gliders #Namibia
All ready to set sail on RV Mirabilis to deploy GOCART project 2 gliders. National Oceanography Centre @StephAHenson @_Pipa_Carvalho #gliders #Namibia
Glider "Pancake" recovered after 3 months sampling the Southern Ocean - very appropriate for #pancakeday2018! Thanks Povl Abrahamsen and team! National Oceanography Centre British Antarctic Survey 🐧
Gliders Doombar and Grease deployed successfully off the RV Mirabilis in the Benguela current as part of GOCART project National Oceanography Centre @_Pipa_Carvalho #gliders #benguela

5 year modelling postdoc in marine biogeochemistry at NOC Southampton! Come join the GOCART project, COMICS project and RoSES teams! tinyurl.com/ya7dvxyp
Just popped down the National Oceanography Centre glider workshop to find they are nearly all at sea on programmes including GOCART project. We’ll be picking those up on COMICS project expedition 2 lead by @StephAHenson later this year off Namibia
Just outside National Oceanography Centre waving the COMICS project and GOCART project expedition 2 folks off. Next stop Joburg and then Walvis Bay. Good luck guys!
Setting sail on #COMICS_Carbon cruise from Namibia today to explore the ocean’s twilight zone - but first a chance to view some local wildlife! National Oceanography Centre
