Our team held our own workshop yesterday with every team member presenting on the vast range of projects we are evolved in. #SouthernOcean #TraceMetals #Isotopes #Biogeochemistry @Antarcticlegacy @StellenboschUni @scienceSUN

[SusanneFietz @susanne_fietz]

Just back from Goldschmidt and @SCALExperiment workshop, and after a hosting 130 Grade6 learners, we ended the week with a very successful @TracexS workshop yesterday with 15 presentations.

Team's junior scientists always up for interesting and inspirational talks.

@geotraces believe it or not this project will have ample use of GEOTRACES dataset, but will also bring out the lack of observation in the Southern Ocean. https://t.co/dceblkV9gS
