Bethany Fleming

PhD student at National Oceanography Centre @NOCnews. Studying deep sea ecosystems.

[Dr JIngels @jeroeningels]

Deadline for submission to Elementa: science of the Anthropocene's @elementascience Special issue on #deepsea mining: 30 September. Do you have a suitable paper in prep? Please let the guest editors know. https://t.co/1OYv2oUZPW @DSBSoc #deepseamining

[Bethany Fleming @bethfmfleming]

A window into the abyss. Check out this exhibition of fantastic photos collected on the #smartexccz expeditions, held at @LSEnews Atrium Gallery

[Adrian Glover @adrg1]

You can see some of the spectacular imagery from the recent @NHM_London @NHM_Science @NOCnews #smartexccz expeditions to the Pacific abyss in this small but perfectly formed exhibition in @LSEnews #LSEArts Atrium Gallery, London from now until 22 June. Free entry. #NHMDeepSea

@jethroreading32 Think that it is created by the Amperima. @DanielOBJones has a great video of one walking really daintily backwards

Sea cucumber slowly glides along the seafloor while eating. Sped up so 8 minutes takes 8 seconds #smartexccz

Just seen this anemone at 4100 m depth in the Pacific Clarion Clipperton Zone #smartexccz @NOCnews

[Erik Simon Lledó @bokamero]

Interested in deep-sea benthic ecology? We are seeking 2 Research Assistants with experience in seabed megafauna taxonomy and/or image analysis, at @NOCnews. Please PM if interested!

That feeling when the time-lapse camera comes back with photos #smartexccz

[Adrian Glover @adrg1]

In the depths of the #abyss. Sponge, seastar, brittle star, polychaete, amphipod. #smartexccz

The endless night. #GlassSponge #Abyss #smartexccz

Bryozoan growing on a polymetallic nodule at 4000m. Never seen a yellow one before. #Ocean #Biodiversity #Taxonomy #AbyssalAnimalOfTheDay #smartexccz

Open invitation to anyone who would like to publish their #DeepSeaMining study (polymetallic nodules) in open access journal Elementa. Special Issue edited by Jeffrey Drazen, Jessica Fitzsimmons and myself. So far we have 15 tentative titles on the books https://t.co/vJTUbIyJlN

[Loïc Van Audenhaege @DeepSea_LVA]

I am delighted to share my second PhD chapter, now published in Limnology and Oceanography. In this study, we used three 3D photogrammetry models to investigate pluriannual dynamics of a hydrothermal edifice in the deep sea (- 1700 m). https://t.co/nQhSfSReP0

[Loïc Van Audenhaege @DeepSea_LVA]

Workshop report published in @RIOJournal.
We developed the workshop to empower scientists with the use of photogrammetry, from data acquisition, processing and analyses, taught within a day during the @GeoHab23 in La Réunion. @Oceanic_Dave @iAtlanticEU

Our image-based 𝐀𝐛𝐲𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜 𝐌𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐟𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐚 𝐀𝐭𝐥𝐚𝐬 with >400 #CCZ species is now available online! https://t.co/10Fdh1STUx

The APSMA catalogue was compiled to generate our #biogeographystudy in @NatureEcoEvo: https://t.co/7foNwoGcRo

Today, Sponges!

[Bethany Fleming @bethfmfleming]

Check out this study that came out today! Led by @bokamero, revealing a biogeographic boundary in the #CCZ

[Erik Simon Lledó @bokamero]

Our new study in @NatureEcoEvo unveils unexpected patterns in deep-sea #macroecology.

A biogeographic boundary splits the #NEPacific in two provinces, deep & shallow-abyssal, with distinct seabed fauna but same diversity levels across the #CCZ. 1/

[National Oceanography Centre @NOCnews]

A new study led by NOC has revealed the existence of a biogeographical boundary at the bottom of the North Pacific Ocean! 🔎

Find out what they discovered about the area in the thread below...

@LupitaBribiesc1 highlights the striking coral diversity from the Clarion-Clipperton Zone, an area in the abyssal Central Pacific targeted for #deepseamining. @isdsc8

[Adrian Glover @adrg1]

Big publishing week, and last few months for the #NHMDeepSea group @NHM_Science @NHM_London. A series of papers making critical #biodiversity data openly available to assist future policy decisions. Here are the highlights:

The last of 50 sunsets before Costa Rica. Time to reflect on all the hard work & great science achieved. Thank you master & crew of the #RRSJamesCook we couldn't have done it without you #SMARTEXCCZ
