Glad to be presenting our work today at the @GSI_Exeter summer conference.

[Convex Seascape Survey @ConvexSeascape]

Meet Dr. Adam Porter (@ap3489) 👋

In the first of a new series where we sit down with the scientists behind the Convex Seascape Survey, we chatted about Adam’s career to date and what he’s working on at the moment ⬇️

Q: What is the focus of your work?
A: Based in Exeter, UK, my work focuses on the impact of human disturbances on seafloor animals.

Q: How did you get into marine biology?
A: My journey began with researching coral reefs in Saudi Arabia and led to a PhD on microplastics in marine ecosystems. My research has won numerous awards and influenced global plastic pollution legislation.

Q: What are you working on as part of the Convex Seascape Survey?
A: I’m exploring how seafloor animals contribute to carbon cycling and climate change mitigation.

Q: What are your passions?
A: I’m very passionate about innovative solutions to environmental issues, I also enjoy SCUBA diving, photography, and sharing my research adventures and scientific knowledge with diverse audiences.

Check out our latest publication! In our microcosm experiment simulating sediment migration ripples in rivers. We report that light oscillation had a stronger impact than mechanical stress on the sediment microbial community's structure and activity.

The last day of #SETACSeville and we have one final poster! Siobhan is sharing their research on the conservation of the central nervous system in #zebrafish after exposure to physcoactive pharmaceuticals. Check out their poster in Area 1, poster 28!

[Daniela Flor @dani_flor89]

Glad to see @redperuanaciclo today at #SETACSeville @IanVzquezRowe @ita

[Dr Stephanie Andrews @CidtheSquid57]

And finally, today I will be sharing our new research project investigating #microplastics in #biosolids to assess environmental risk. Come find my poster in Area 3, Poster 574. #SETACSeville
