#SUMMIT_Moorea - Day 13 The countdown begins for the end of the SUMMIT-Moorea campaign. Few days left at the island! Finishing the last samplings and experiments and enjoying the island. #SUMMIT_ERCAdG #lastdays #island #frenchpolynesia

#SUMMIT_Moorea - Day 14 Great work with an amazing group, mutualism at work. The #nitrogen_fixation sampling team: Clara Ruiz-González, Fran Cornejo, @NestorArandia, Elena Cerdán, and Guillaume the driver. And the #ISCA team: JB Raina, Jean-François Mangot, Rafel simolab, and Tony the driver.

#SUMMIT_Moorea - Day 17 The adventure has come to an end and we have to say goodbye to the amazing Moorea, where we have spent more than 2 weeks doing good science. We hope to be able to meet this island again soon 🌴🧪⛵️👨‍🔬👩‍🔬 #SUMMIT_ERCAdG European Research Council (ERC) ICM-CSIC

#SUMMIT_Moorea - Day 20 The personnel of the UC Berkeley Richard Gump Research Station in Mo'orea, always ready to help out, give a bonus to the Gump experience. Maururuu to them all!

Excited to share the new ISMEJ publication that is part of the PhD thesis of Queralt Güell-Bujons ICM-CSIC, co-authored with Medea Zanoli IMEDEA (UIB-CSIC). A study of the chemotaxis of herbivore dinoflagellates to algal-derived compounds. academic.oup.com/ismej/article/…

Still another paper, this time a review of the links between ocean plankton and biogeochemistry and marine aerosols and clouds. How we study the short-term impacts of the marine biota on climate. Part of a SOLAS promoted series of reviews on ocean-atmosphere interactions.

Holobionts and microbial consortia represent ecological units that can be investigated by eDNA/eRNA, and may be more sensitive indicators of ecosystem function and health than other eNA approaches

Great del Campo Lab collaboration with the RAW-Lab and Pieter Visscher, where we compared and contrasted the eukaryotic communities of microbialites across distinct aquatic ecosystems! 🔬🧬🪨 🌊 #Protists

Yesterday 17th Sept Queralt Güell Bujons did a fantastic job defending her PhD thesis on light stress and chamotactic interactions in microbial plankton. Panel members were Steve Archer (Bigelow), Clara Ruiz-González (ICM) and Cristina Sobrino (U Vigo). Congrats, Dr. Queralt!

I'm very happy to share our recent publication on aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic (AAP) bacteria! In this paper, I moved from genetics, to study their distribution across a huge transect... aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ln… 🧵1/4
