Congratulations @FiguerolaLaura for the great effort to build robust models for four of the most emblematic gorgonians in the Mediterranean sea. #proudsupervisor

🚨New paper out! We’ve modelled the distribution of key #Mediterranean #gorgonians 🪸 to guide #conservation efforts ➡️doi.org/10.1111/jbi.15… @Med_Recover @CorfunHeatmed @crislinaresibz @Yanis_ZM @JGarrabou @DavidAmblas @flopesdematos @WileyGlobal Journal of #Biogeography 🧵

It is so motivating and enriching to find time to think, yet so difficult! Many thanks Matthieu @sedimorph @durham_uni for these two days full of science and good vibes @GRCGM @UniBarcelona. Special thanks to IAS-@sedimentology for the support that made it happen :)

🚨 New paper alert! Really excited this one is finally published, now available online & open access! Read our latest research on gravity flow transformations during submarine canyon flushing events 👇 pubs.geoscienceworld.org/gsa/geology/ar…

#RecercaUB | 🌊Ens arriben notícies fresques des de l’Àrtic! 🚢 Un equip de @geologiaub està aquests dies a bord del vaixell oceanogràfic Sarmiento de Gamboa a l’estret de Dinamarca (entre Islàndia i Groenlàndia). 🌡️ Han anat a recuperar els instruments que durant tot aquest any han estat recollint dades a l’Atlàntic nord. Els aparells estan entre 1.000 i 2.000 m de profunditat. Es tracta de dades rellevants per descriure i entendre els efectes del #canviclimàtic en la circulació oceànica. 🙌 Desitgem a tot l’equip una bona campanya!

🚢 The FARDWO D2 cruise has come to an end! An international team effort to better understand the Denmark Strait overflow. Thanks to @utm_csic and @AgEInves for making it possible! And with the best farewell we could have 😍

The FARDWO-DS2 cruise onboard Sarmiento de Gamboa is almost over after a long week of collecting data, sharing knowledge and admiring northern lights in the Denmark Strait near Greenland

What a week, huh?

Denmark Strait transect almost completed. A hard-working, enthusiastic and amazing team of people that is making all this possible. Thanks FARDWO-DS2 for inviting TITANICA onboard @usys_ethzh @ERC_Research @SwissPolar @aneguet77 @DavidAmblas @elpiratavell @lolailolei

While sailing on the Denmark Strait we received the great news that we will be funded for next three years to come back ando do research on overflow water and its interaction with topography. funded under the bilateral call of the DFG-AEI.

This fantastic team of scientists managed to recover a mooring that was sitting at the slope of the Irminger Sea, taking measurements of Temperature, Salinity and Current velocity for an entire year. Congratulations @aneguet77 @DavidAmblas @elpiratavell

Campanya oceanogràfica FARDWO DS2 a l'Estret de Dinamarca. A la recerca del desbordament d'aigües fredes i denses de l'Àrtic! ❄️🌬️🌊 Gran equip a punt! 💪

DSOW here we come; thanks for this opportunity @lolailolei @aneguet77 @DavidAmblas. First time on a Spanish vessel, firts impression: what a luxury on the menu :)

@aneguet77 @wrmr2024 @WorldRowing @CN_Banyoles BRUTAL!!! 👏👏👏👏

Best time Womens C 2- !!! 🌍 @wrmr2024 #rembanyoles

Scientific retreat in the wonderful Les Llosses. Time for discussion on water masses, sediment transport, proxies and rats, new ideas and projects... with amazing food and a great group of people!

The 2nd International Conference on Seafloor Landforms, Processes and Evolution took place in Lipari, Italy, from July 1st to 3rd, 2024. The conference attracted over 100 participants and included 73 oral and 31 poster presentations. The event wrapped up with an (1/2)

📢 It's been 15 years already! 🌊 Mooring CC1000 with a sediment trap, a currentmeter, an ACDP and a microcat successfully recovered from the Cap de Creus canyon! @TechnicapRattiF @NortekNews @IXSEA @TeledyneMarine @SeaBird_Sci

The study reveals the self-similarity in canyon–fan long profiles, uncovers Hack’s scaling relationship and proposes a formula to estimate fan volume using canyon length, validated by global data from s2s systems, providing insights into deep-water sedimentary processes.

This study explores the creation of submarine canyons and hanging-wall fans on active faults, which can be defined by gravity-dominated breaching and underflow-dominated diffusion processes.

A new collaboration with Steven Y.J. Lai and colleagues to investigate the long term morphodynamics of submarine canyons using microscale tank experiments. So much fun! so many learnings! esurf.copernicus.org/articles/12/62…
