UK's All-Party Parliamentary Group for the Ocean has an inquiry open to solicit expert input & responses for #BlueCarbon and #ocean-based solutions to #climate change. Great to see this kind of initiative; contribute here: oceanappg.org/news-and-updat… MASTS Challenger Society National Oceanography Centre

As CTD and mooring casts slow down on the UK OSNAP #JC238 here onboard RRS James Cook, the Science and Tech crew are getting more into desktop data preprocessing. Here we have Phoebe Hudson & Dr Daniel Phillips - National Oceanography Centre, @hannah_bischof - Edinburgh Glaciology, Sam Tiéfolo Diabaté - Scottish Association for Marine Science

The team of Scottish Association for Marine Science says thank you and goodbye to RRS James Cook after the successful UK OSNAP and CLASS cruise #JC238. What a great time we had. Safe travel to the rest of the team and crew back to National Oceanography Centre in Southampton iAtlanticEU

The @GeestShippingMV Longbok Strait has towed a CPR from the Caribbean to the UK for over half a century, covering over 2000 miles. We are so grateful for their continued support over the 50 years.

#OceanExploringTheMarineWorld, an illustrated celebration of the world's oceans and seas, is now available to pre-order! 📘 The book was developed in consultation with experts including the NOC's Dr Tammy Horton. Read more about it's creation here 👉 noc.ac.uk/news/illustrat…

Welcome home to the remaining #JC238 team who have just come alongside National Oceanography Centre. Congratulations on a successful trip!

A new Plymouth Marine Lab CLASS has revealed dramatic changes in the abundance of phytoplankton in the North Atlantic over the last 60 years, driven primarily by climate variability and North Atlantic warming. pml.ac.uk/News/Dramatic-… and nature.com/articles/s4324…

A brand new Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for the use of oxygen sensors in #AutonomousVehicles has been released! 📝 The document, which brings together experts from across the glider community, was co-led by NOC scientists. Learn more here 👉 noc.ac.uk/news/glider-ex…

This is home for the next five weeks. We’ll soon be sailing to #WhittardCanyon on #JC237. This exciting habitat mapping project is part of CLASS at National Oceanography Centre #oceanography #deepsea #habitat

#AutoSub5 being lifted in place for her maiden science mission on #JC237. She’s designed and engineered by the National Oceanography Centre #oceanrobotics teams. The data will provide vital insights to sea floor #habitats CLASS

We are now recruiting for a permanent coastal-ocean modeller post to work with NEMO in NW European shelf seas and other seas around the world. If you're interested see: careers.noc.ac.uk/vacancy/coasta… or get in touch with me.

This month we’ll be exploring #SeaLevelRise 💧⬆️ This was highlighted by National Oceanography Centre as one of the key issues arising from #ClimateChange in the latest #StateOfUKClimate report, published last month by Royal Meteorological Society #RMetSJournals Get ready for tomorrow #GetClimateReady

Everybody is on board, all our equipment is packed and tested: expedition #JC237 is ready to go! ⁦CLASS⁩ ⁦National Oceanography Centre⁩ ⁦iAtlanticEU⁩

In this second we’re setting sail onboard the RRS James Cook #JC237 to research Ocean Health of deep sea ecosystems in the #Whittardcanyon and #PorcupineAbyssalPlain with CLASS National Oceanography Centre iAtlanticEU for one month! I’m so excited. Thank you for this opportunity.

Excited that JNCC are part of this expedition to explore and investigate marine ecosystems to the south west of the UK. National Oceanography Centre CLASS ⁦iAtlanticEU⁩ iatlantic.eu/jc237-expediti…
