Lecturer and researcher experience from the MSc Applied Marine Conservation and MSc Conservation Behaviour #gmitpostgrad

Really enjoying undertaking this research with supervision from @DrJoseMFarinas ! So grateful to be part of such an exciting project.🌱🔬

Lots of wonderful little creatures hidden away in Ascophyllum beds ! 🦀🦐🐛🪱🐉🐚 #BiodiversityWeek2022

Today I wanted to bring you to one of the deepest, lushest seagrass beds in Ireland. It is in county Kerry and I had the pleasure of monitoring it over 3 years. Let me show you some of its rich marine life. Spring is quite special, as the first shoals of juvenile pollack appear.

In time for #PhycologyFriday and before I give way to the next curator I (@DrJoseMFarinas) wanted to dedicate a thread to a group of habitat forming species, integral to our Atlantic coastal landscape: intertidal seaweed (or macroalgae). 📷Feamainn Bhuí, Conamara.

What an incredible week at the @ICES_ASC. Delighted to have had the opportunity to attend and meet so many passionate people through science - Feeling inspired. 🌊

Today I had the pleasure of describing how we survey our seas on the #RVTomCrean to the Presidents of Ireland and Portugal during a visit to Dublin President of Ireland Marine Institute

It's a wrap! Our last 2 stock assessment training courses are finished for the year! Last month, participants learnt integrated stock assessment using Stock Synthesis & last week we held an intro course to stock assessment. ➡️ Check out what's up in 2024: ices.dk/events/Trainin…

Really enjoyed presenting my work on thresholds today at WGFBIT - made even better with a sea swim and sauna afterwards

Super happy about this ICES #WGFBIT week at the Tvärminne Zoological Station Zoological Station, it has been a great opportunity to meet interesting people and work on (and also learn about) fisheries impact on benthic communities. Also fell in love with finnish landscapes, what a country!
