We're carrying out ocean modelling in the Firth of Forth region during spring and summer to assess the potential effects of offshore wind farms on ocean structure. This animation shows how sea surface temperatures change through March to September. [1/2] #NationalMarineWeek
The 2nd international #BlueCarbonScot project ‘Blue Forests’ funded by @ScotGov has been published.
The report brings together insights on seaweed aquaculture & potential carbon offset strategies.
Dr Alasdair O'Dell @SAMSoceannews explains more:

For this month's #planktonofthemonth we're going to take a look at Ciliates. 🔬
Ciliates are important predators in the plankton community. 🧑🔬
This video of a ciliate from the #SCObs site at #Stonehaven shows how it captures its prey.⬇️

#Discovery100
Great morning with @NOCnews & @DiscoveryDundee celebrating a century of science on ships named RRS Discovery & lovely to see @SAMSoceannews scientists showcasing their excellent work & flying the flag for 🏴 marine science! @marinescotland @mastscot + amazing rail journey 😍
Save the date!! 25-27 June 2024, 10th @iahr International Symposium on Environmental Hydraulics (ISEH2024) @aberdeenuni. More info on https://t.co/3CbKs1goly, 1st call for abstracts to open very soon! (no worries, subm. only closes in Oct) #FlumeFriday#ISEH2024
Happy days this week installing our new stereo-PIV system - image calibration has come a long way since I last used PIV! Can't wait to start using it properly #FlumeFriday
Very chuffed with this new paper led by my fantastic PhD student Danny Dunbar published in @JFluidMech
Through DNS and flow tunnel experiments we give new insights in oscillatory boundary layer flows over irregular rough (sediment) beds.
