SOLAS #OSC2024 kicks off with two side events: CIce2Clouds meeting and SOLAS Science & Society Workshop. SCOR Future Earth (@futureearth.bsky.social) Dr. Anoop Sharad Mahajan Garima Shukla Tanya Marshall



Our study intercomparing results from proteomics labs on ocean samples is out. Consistency across labs and lessons were learned are shared. These are necessary efforts for comparing ocean diagnostic data across time and space. Thanks to the study contributors.Biogeoscapes

Mobilisation on RRS James Cook for AMT31 in Southampton with Jan Kaiser & Penelope Pickles (UEA), Rafael Mendes & Raul Costa (FURG). #JC272, Plymouth Marine Lab, @CLASS_UKRI, #AMT31, #NEODAAS


Tom Jordan (EOSA, PML) inspecting the Sea-Bird HyperSAS radiometers on the met platform of RRS James Cook. The data from the radiometers are used to sea-truth ocean colour data from ESA and NASA satellite missions. #JC272, Plymouth Marine Lab, @CLASS_UKRI, #AMT31, #NEODAAS


AMT31: Deployment of the 2nd WHOI Argo float at 38°N, by Scientific bosun Mark Squib, to collect autonomous temperature and salinity profiles over it’s ~5yr life-time. #JC272, Plymouth Marine Lab, @CLASS_UKRI, #AMT31, #NEODAAS


Prof. Peter Croot (University of Galway) is on AMT31 measuring the optical properties and biogeochemical composition of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in the surface layer. DOM is the largest pool of carbon in the ocean! #JC272, Plymouth Marine Lab, @CLASS_UKRI, #AMT31, #NEODAAS


Just off Cape Verde and getting a lot of dust from the Sahara on the aerosol filters, that has even settled on the tails of the optics sensors. #JC272, Plymouth Marine Lab, @CLASS_UKRI, #AMT31, #NEODAAS


Fully automated sensor technology deployed on the met platform on Atlantic Meridional Transect 31 to measure changes in temperature and phytoplankton biomass as the ship is steaming. #JC272, Plymouth Marine Lab, @CLASS_UKRI, #AMT31, #NEODAAS


Argo float number 4 deployed on AMT31 to add to the array of autonomous profiling sensors in the Atlantic Ocean. Thanks to Mark Squibb (CPOS) and Rob McKeown (POS) for skilled and safe deployment!! #JC272, Plymouth Marine Lab, @CLASS_UKRI, #AMT31, #NEODAAS



A lone Frigatebird sours effortlessly around the ship, occasionally swooping down to catch unsuspecting flying fish (Thanks to Lizzie Booth, 2ndOfficer RRS James Cook for the photo). #JC272, Plymouth Marine Lab, @CLASS_UKRI, #AMT31, #NEODAAS
