@ProfBenthos @Emmeb8 @ZSLScience If you're still interested in having a chat dm me or drop me an email at your leisure... (email address available here: https://t.co/N56VF8N6oV)

[Stephen Long @Stephen_D_Long]

@ProfBenthos @Emmeb8 @ZSLScience ...the videos include lebensspuren (life signs: mounds, burrows, tracks etc), which could be a bioturbation proxy. Are lebenspurren more/less abundant in trawled areas? Can we make inferences about trawling effects on bioturbation? Lots of Qs, little time, happy to chat...

@ProfBenthos @Emmeb8 @ZSLScience Not at the moment...we have video imagery from ~100 stations at depths of 600 to 1,600m in the Davis Strait, which we've used to characterize epi-benthic communities and responses to trawling. But there's a lot more information contained in these videos...
