Sieving sediments

 

Got some sediment sieves for the #geology department. Just giving them a little test before A level #geologists use them as part of their Practical Endorsement. There is something very satisfying about sieving sediments 😊 pic.twitter.com/SVYC6WJYWE

Tiny Pennsylvanian brachiopods from Iowa

From the collections @TAMUGandG … an example of the patience some paleontologists have for their fossils. Tiny Pennsylvanian brachiopods from Iowa neatly glued in columns in size order, with some other fossil friends. #FossilFriday pic.twitter.com/hWLAsIsZqT

Deep sea samples

On @TheJR , #Exp396 cores (samples from beneath the sea floor) are carefully and painstakingly curated piece by piece by @JRSO_IODP curator and marine technicians for shipboard and post-expedition studies. #norwegiansea #geologyrocks pic.twitter.com/vP3zVdBI5y

Marine sediments as source of antibiotics

The abundance of actinobacteria in the Philippines’ marine sediments is found to be a valuable resource of antibiotics that can treat secondary bacterial infections as a result of COVID-19, according to an expert from the University of San Agustin, Iloilo.https://t.co/u3osGOpnWv

Marine Sediments

Marine sediments represent a large and globally important carbon sink, but only 2% of sediment carbon stocks are located in protected areas that prevent #seafloor disturbance.

Montezuma Well

Got to visit an extremely unique place known as Montezuma Well on my ride yesterday. I learned that only five species of animals exist in the Weel’s water due to high levels of dissolved carbon dioxide. A harbinger of future times? pic.twitter.com/qNTDOYR8d4

Historical perspectives on marine ecosystems, fisheries, and futures - Belgium 2020

Rationale: Life in the oceans is changing more rapidly in the current century than ever before. As these changes occur it is more imperative than ever to understand what came before to better frame management of those systems. Oceans Past brings together scholars and practitioners interested in documenting and understanding changes in marine systems and human maritime interactions in past centuries and millennia. The 8th Oceans Past Conference, Historical Perspectives on Marine Ecosystems, Fisheries, and Futures, will enable continued scholarly communication and international exchange towards a fuller understanding of the past, the present status, and potential trajectories of our living marine resources.

Invitation: The conference welcomes researchers, practitioners, policy-makers and students of all disciplines under the unifying view of our oceans as networks of social-ecological or coupled human-nature systems. Presentations are encouraged that explore large-scale and long-term case studies highlighting dynamic changes and interactions in past marine ecosystems, the impacts and legacy effects of human activities on them, the sustainability of iterative or co-evolutionary relationships and, where possible, likely future directions and management implications. If you have an interest in the history of human interactions with life in the ocean and implications for policy and management, sign up now to attend OP VIII in 2020!

Deadline for paper submission: 15 JANUARY 2020
