Rockpooling and nature journaling the day before the #ICESASC26 in Brest. Tides and the Atlantic shores with their massive algae are a miraculous thing when you are used to the microtidal Mediterranean 🤩

ICES community is gathering in Brest for a packed week of science. From changing ecosystems and biodiversity to fisheries, spatial planning and science-policy connections, we’ll be exploring the questions shaping the future of our oceans.
Let’s get started! #ICESASC26

The final day of IPC15 was a fascinating insight into the world of EvoDevo & genomics. Two invited speakers Elaine Seaver and Toru Miura provided a backdrop for a series of fascinating talks.

The afternoon of Day 5 of IPC15 Frankfurt saw the general assembly, election of council members and president, selection of next conference, student prizes and thanks to the amazing team. It was also a chance to remember members of our polychaete family who are sadly no longer with us.

Another fantastic day at IPC15 in Frankfurt. Day 2 focused on taxonomy, systematics and phylogenomics. Interestingly it started and finished with the renowned sand striker worms, with the fascinating story of Walter.

This is just stunning. The northern Baltic Sea with ocean temperature anomlies of up to 11 degrees C, absolute temps of up to 24°C 🤯, the Norwegian Sea up to 7 deg C too hot, absolute temps of up to 23 deg C, due to the unprecedented heat wave in Scandinavia.
The future is grim.

Diving over a #rhodolith bed the other day. Rhodoliths are calcareous red algae that are not attached to anything and just form little balls on the seabed. They are a highly biodiverse habitat and I saw so many species I have never seen before! Spot the cheerleeder #crab!
