#exploreL4 survey today, catch of the day was this barrel #jellyfish (Rhizostoma pulmo). Impressive considering it was caught in our #YoungFishTrawl, the opening of which is only 1mx1m! Despite being too large for the cod end, it was released alive. #plankton @thembauk @CPRSurvey
So happy to be #backatsea! After a busy winter refit, today is a training day to test all the new equipment, improvements (and crew!) are working! @thembauk @CPRSurvey #exploreL4
Fantastic #FlowCam montage from #CPRSurvey Analyst and Instrumentation Technician, Rob Camp #loveplankton Can you spot any favourites in there?
Look who turned up this morning aboard @mba_rv ready to sabotage our #explorel4 #oceanographic survey! #elfontheshelf @thembauk @CPRSurvey
A still wintery morning to welcome #DavidLiittschwager and @ClareOstle to explore the interaction between #plankton and #microplastics, towing a #CPR out to #exploreL4. Lots of #arrowworms. Influence from the river system at the surface. #Plymouth @CPRSurvey @thembauk.
Lots of #chaetognath #arrowworm (Sagitta setosa) in the #exploreL4 samples this week. Voracious carnivores eating a variety of #zooplankton, they are frequently cannibalistic, able to swallow other chaetognaths of almost the same length. Thanks Dave Conway! @thembauk @CPRSurvey
This week #exploreL4; high numbers of the 'water flea' Penilia avirostris. Common in southern North Sea and French Atlantic coast, rarely found in the English Channel. Many females had eggs, which can overwinter in seabed, so a population may emerge next year. Thanks Dave Conway!
Survey of #exploreL4 this morning, no #thermocline, but runs of #tuna passed close to the boat! #BlueFinTuna #fish #marinebiology @thembauk @CPRSurvey
Off to #exploreL4 with the #sunrise this morning for #oceanography survey. #copepods and #diatoms order of the day along with arrow worms (predatory #plankton that tend to feed on copepods). Note that the #thermocline has disappeared! @thembauk @CPRSurvey @G_W_Graham
Deploying @CPRSurvey today on the way to #exploreL4. It's getting colder, big mix in the #plankton. Lots of starfish in the #YFT! #Plymouth #marinebiology #oceanography @thembauk @G_W_Graham
This week: #Sardine eggs (1.7mm) from #exploreL4. Take around 3-5 days to hatch, outer egg has bluish tinge with single, small oil globule. Larvae well developed inside, a scattering of faint pigment spots on body (eyes still unpigmented). Thanks Dave Conway @thembauk @CPRSurvey
Recap of #August #YoungFishTrawl; high numbers #Doliolida-small (<25mm), #pelagic #tunicate, particularly #E1. These have warm, oceanic distribution, could be due to water movement from Biscay. May explain single #anchovy egg recorded at #exploreL4. Thanks Nick Halliday @thembauk
Deep #thermocline yesterday at #E1 and again today at #exploreL4. @thembauk @CPRSurvey @TheSimsLab @G_W_Graham
On our way to #exploreL4 for an #oceanography #survey this morning, this pod of #dolphins decided to join us for the trip! #marinebiology #lovinglife #Plymouth #ILoveMyJob @thembauk @CPRSurvey @TheSimsLab @G_W_Graham
#StandardHaul of #exploreL4 yesterday, here is a photo of the crew shooting the gear for the 4244th MBA haul (which started 107 years ago!) #timeseries #longtermmonitoring #Plymouth #practicemakesperfect. @thembauk @CPRSurvey @TheSimsLab
#Mondaymorning on the MBA Sepia starts with an #exploreL4 #oceanography #survey. Today's #surprise was a lesser #pipefish (Syngnathus rostellatus) in our Young Fish Trawl! Still plenty of #Noctiluca #seasparkle in the plankton. #marinebiology @thembauk @CPRSurvey @TheSimsLab.
Still morning for an #oceanography survey #exploreL4. Still lots of #Noctiluca in the water, brief glimpses of #dolphins. #copepod #marinebiology @thembauk @CPRSurvey @TheSimsLab

#Whale spotted on the way to E1 this morning, very close to our #exploreL4 survey ground! #marinemammals #marinebiology #lovinglife #Plymouth @thembauk @CPRSurvey @TheSimsLab
More #Noctiluca at E1 today, along with a lot of detritus in the water. #exploreL4 #marinebiology #oceanography #plankton @thembauk @CPRSurvey @TheSimsLab
