What a journey! I’ve been working on #coastalresilience and #NbS, including the role of Posidonia oceanica banquettes in protecting Mediterranean beaches from #erosion
This short video by the Parc national de Port-Cros explains it really well. 🌊

🌊 #OSM2026 kicks off today in Glasgow!
DOSI is on-site championing #DeepSea science for climate, biodiversity & governance.
📍 Booth #5
📣 Town Hall on Thursday (TH33F)
💡 Deep-ocean sessions all week: www.dosi-project.org/event/ocean-...
Excited to be at #OSM2026! 🌊✨
I’ll be presenting in HC52A: Resilience in a Changing Ocean 🌍 on Friday, exploring how Posidonia oceanica dead leaves 🍃 can act as a nature-based solution for coastal resilience to global change 🏖️
Let’s connect! 🤝
📢 New paper out!
We outline key gaps and a path forward to better represent benthic carbon cycling in models and observations. Thanks to all who contributed to this synthesis effort!

🇬🇧 Join me on 7th May for a short lecture series on the marine environment — from deep-sea life to coastal habitats. Open to all!
🇮🇹 Vi aspetto il 7 maggio per una breve serie di incontri sull’ambiente marino – dagli abissi alle coste. Evento aperto a tutti!
Join us next week for @mastscot.bsky.social Deep-Sea Open Forum- Daniëlle de Jonge (JNCC) on SMARTEX, a UKRI funded project investigating the impact of seabed mining on the abyssal Pacific and exploring topics of resilience and recovery. Feb 12 1-2pm GMT. Register free: masts.ac.uk/event/masts-...
Excellent talk at #17DSBS by @georgeimatsumoto.bsky.social outlining MBARI’s research internship! So often we see predatory internships & positions in conservation requiring skilled work for free because it’s ’good experience’. Great to see an institution leading the way in equitable internships! 👏🏼
I said yes❣️

🚨 New Paper Alert 🚨
Another PhD opportunity in the team! This time its an exciting collaboration with @halllab.bsky.social and @kimhardie.bsky.social looking at why not all bacteria become resistant! www.findaphd.com/phds/project... Deadline 10th Jan and open to Uk and overseas! Pls repost!
It was another frosty day in Edinburgh, and I was excited to share insights with 4th year undergrads in my first guest lecture on the deep-sea and the complex issues around deep-sea mining.
Sharing knowledge is vital to shaping informed policies and engaging stakeholders to protect the deep sea 🌊❤️
A Must-Watch!!
📽️ Dive deep. Take action.

Day 3 of the 4-day MMO/PAMO course, and today it’s all about PAMGuard! 🎧🐋 Gaining valuable insights into passive acoustic monitoring—so much to take in! 🌊📚
Helpful guide to identifying large whales at sea. Blue whales have very small dorsal fins very far back, and more U-shaped heads when seen from above; and uniformly dark undersides

Hi Emma, could I please be added? Cheers!
Excited to be attending the Marine Mammal Observer (MMO) course at ocean Science Consulting Ltd. this week! 🐋🌊
learning about monitoring marine life during offshore operations and expanding my skillset in ocean science. #MarineScience
Just back from a winter hike! ❄️☀️ we had a bit of everything—snow, sunshine, and plenty of bogs to navigate. Despite the challenges, it was a fantastic day out in nature! Nothing like crisp air and good trails to reset. 🥾🌲 #hiking #Scotland #winter #adventures
🌎 The #DeepOcean, the biggest CO₂ absorber & heat buffer—but how much do we really know about it? DOSI is spotlighting critical knowledge gaps in IPCC reports & calling for deeper research into ocean deoxygenation, fisheries, carbon cycles & more.

🐟 Just when you thought the oarfish hype had died down … Look what decided to make another appearance!
🌊 Last week, another oarfish washed up on Grandview Beach in Encinitas and was spotted by Scripps Oceanography PhD candidate Alison Laferriere.
“Hi Bluesky community! 👋🏼
New here and excited to connect. After years in academia, I’ve moved to consultancy as a Principal Consultant at Ocean Science Consulting Ltd. Still passionate about deep-sea science and marine ecosystems. Let’s dive into meaningful conversations! 🌊 #DeepSeaScience”
