Fossil calciferous skeletons of single-celled foraminifers are a beautiful history book with info on CO2-levels in the oceans of the distant past. Linda Dämmer @NIOZnieuws@UUEarthSciences@NESSCresearch studied how these organisms build their skeletons https://t.co/9yFEqGsFpn
The new EMB policy brief on #BlueCarbon highlights the need to strongly limit greenhouse gas emissions if these ecosystems are to contribute to climate stabilisation: Find out more: https://t.co/SIXDkad9eR #MissionOcean#OceanDecadeEurope
🥂With the welding of the ‘coin for good luck’ by Gert Jan Reichart and Henk Oenema we celebrated the start of the construction of the new Dutch ocean going research vessel Anna Weber-van Bosse at Armon Shipyards in Vigo today! @NIOZnieuws @NWONieuws
