The Spring bloom illuminates the Western English Channel As the UK enjoys warmer weather and longer days, our scientists are also enjoying seeing the vibrant plankton communities blossom in UK waters through the Spring bloom.

As the #UK enjoys warmer weather and longer days, our scientists are also enjoying seeing the vibrant plankton communities blossom in #UKwaters through the #SpringBloom! Discover the beautiful #plankton imagery - from both under the microscope, and spotted from space! pml.ac.uk/news/the-spr...

It's rewarding that our FRONTWARD project to support conservation of mobile marine animals is contributing to the UK effort to accelerate offshore wind energy - see p34 of @thecrownestate.bsky.social report.

FRONTWARD team at The Crown Estate in London

Presented the first phase of FRONTWARD at @thecrownestate.bsky.social, studying UK shelf-sea fronts and internal waves, and relationships with biodiversity hotspots for mobile marine animals, for future offshore wind scenarios. Webinar soon! www.marinedataexchange.co.uk/content/stor...

YouTube video by RAZOR Science Show What has plankton ever done for us?

PML scientists have featured in a short documentary by RAZOR Science show: ‘What have #plankton ever done for us?’. Thank you to Claire Widdicombe, Dr Matt Cole, Dr James Clark, Dr Peter Miller & Prof Angus Atkinson for taking the time to speak to the crew! Watch:🔗 www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFnz...

FRONTWARD is led by scientists from @plymouthmarine.bsky.social, @uniofaberdeen.bsky.social and @bangoruniversity.bsky.social, for @thecrownestate.bsky.social.

Just gave my talk at #BIOSPACE25 on links between shelf-sea fronts and biodiversity studied using EO. I'm enjoying exploring applications for ocean fronts with this enthusiastic community.

🔴 MAPPED: Donald Trump’s Transatlantic Anti-Green Network

Politicians, donors, think tanks, and media outlets in the UK and U.S. are working increasingly closely to scupper climate policies and promote fossil fuel extraction.

It’s a great exhibition, though that blue projection is frustrating for scientists as there’s no explanation of how it relates to the temperature. The staff didn’t know either.

What kind of cynical comedy movie are we entering? This brainlessness is getting too close to home.

The coccolithophore dress on PML's seasonal card highlights a great science-art collaboration with Arts University Plymouth.

In a new 🧪 study out today in #GRL we show that the Greenland ice sheet lost 2347 km3 of ice since 2010 using CryoSat-2 and ICESat-2.

The satellites agree to within 3%, pretty impressive.
