Presenting the latest update to the PAP-SO upper ocean biogeochemistry time series at the ICOS conference this week #ICOS2024SC @GeorgeEUproject @NOCnews @MinkeProject
Pictured here is our reinstated Psychropotes buglossa, one of the most conspicuous and iconic species found at the @PAP_observatory @NOCnews

Latest blog from #JC263 Flying the Pride flag on the RRS James Cook @NOCnews blogs.noc.ac.uk/jc263-pap/mode…
Scientists working on #JC263 are always striving to ensure data of the highest quality in a challenging environment. International collaboration through projects such as @MinkeProject can help to achieve this.

Great to see the data coming in from the @NOCnews biogeochemistry Argo float deployed on #JC263. The profiles contribute to broad scale ocean observations and provide useful spatial coverage for PAP observatory while the float remains in the area: fleetmonitoring.euro-argo.eu/float/3901580
On #WorldOceanDay this year, #JC263 deployed a time-lapse camera and set of sensors to observe the activity of animals on the abyssal seabed over the next year and compare with previous deployments over the last 30 years @NOCnews
It's been an absolute privilege to take part in seabed camera work aboard the RRS James Cook for @PAP_observatory over the last week or so. Seeing a live view of the seabed nearly 5km beneath my feet never gets old - obviously the rattails are my favourite! (IDs in alt text)
