Project funded! This ecstatic nerd is officially teaming up with Plastic Fischer, @TimVanEmmerik Louise Schreyers & Poseidon Data on FLiPPR, where we’ll be combining EO data with top-notch engineering & local efforts to remove #plastic #litter + hyacinth from polluted rivers 🐬👑

So proud of Cian Luck who successfully defended his PhD today, preceded by a really informative seminar on the tangled issue of seal bycatch. Biological, Earth & Environmental Sciences, UCC MaREI 🥂👏🦭

Just watched Cian Luck's PhD viva presentation. Holy trinity of environmental data from satellite remote sensing, fishing distribution and🦭#biotelemetry 🥰 plus super sexy #HMMs! A lovely guy and an amazing scientist! Congrats Dr Luck! (ok enough gushing 😂)

The wonderful Nicole Smyrniou Barber getting some appreciation 🥰

ermagad, amazing movemaps! Some super-cool dynamic maps being presented! That's my morning gone then.. 🤓🤓

#NewPaper led by Alice Trevail & Hannah Wood out now in Marine Ecology Progress Series (MEPS): doi.org/10.3354/meps14…. Tracking of red-footed boobies across multiple colonies revealed segregation in foraging range, space use, and timing 🗺️⌛️ Let me know if you want a copy of the PDF 💌

They travel up to 1500km on a trip to find food (like flying fish) and birds neighbouring colonies tend to avoid one another. Nice work Alice Trevail Hannah Wood et al.

Lovely paper, well done Alice Trevail, @Marine_Hannah and everyone else in the team!

Red-footed boobies are great. They don't migrate in the tropical Indian Ocean making them particularly important year-round guano producers to fertilise coral reef ecosystems. They're very bonnie to boot Lyell Centre Hannah Wood Nick Graham Ruth Dunn Rob Freeman
