Exciting news for aquatic microbial ecologists! The 18th SAME meeting will take place in Barcelona (Sept 28–Oct 3, 2025) 🧬🌊 Interested? Pls, share your details here: forms.gle/XUTfGqq3tpgL7z…—it only takes a minute! Spread the word & save the date! 🗓️ @EMM_Barcelona @ICMCSIC

1) What a wonderful day of wildlife watching near Plymouth. To learn why the incredible bluefin tuna have migrated to UK seas and also much more, read this thread. It is vital to understand the reason for their recent appearance. See 2

PhD position in my lab! Interested in polar #diatoms, molecular biology, essential minerals and adaptation? Join us working with @GLWheeler2 & C. van Oosterhout @ueaenv @thembauk #Arctic #Antarctic #Ocean Deadline: 8 January 2025 (midnight UK time) uea.ac.uk/course/phd-doc…

Our new paper @Nature with @TheBgiGroup @OUC1924 and other collaborators provides evidence from the laboratory that ocean microbiomes advance biotechnology and biomedicine. @ueaenv @UEAResearch #microbiome #biodiversity nature.com/articles/s4158…

It took me SEVEN years to figure out that you can save a ggplot as a vectorized .svg file ggsave("file.svg"). The svg file can be opened on powerpoint and it will be completely vectorized, even text are still recognized as text boxes! No more recreating plots on illustrator!!!!!

Happy to see this @FRBiodiv #CESAB working group paper on functionally rare microbes published! Refocusing the microbial rare biosphere concept through a functional lens: Trends in Ecology & Evolution cell.com/trends/ecology…

Boost Plankton on X. RT to help me reach more than 12,975 people. Everyone should know about , care about, and enjoy the plankton and especially, now the tiny creatures are in hot water with record-breaking sea surface temperatures every day from May 2023-May 2024. @zeiss_micro

But what blew me away was the level of personal anguish among the experts who have dedicated their lives to climate research. Many used words like hopeless, broken, infuriated, scared, overwhelmed. Read their words here: 5/n theguardian.com/environment/ng…

@JPlanktonRes Really nice cover !

Possibly the most important ecology paper published in Science this century?...science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

How do scaling laws at the single-cell level give rise to macroecological patterns? We show that in plankton, power laws of nutrient uptake and grazing shape eco-evolutionary dynamics to produce scaling relationships at the ecosystem level. 🌊 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

This is mind-blowingly bad.Most up-to-date study on Atlantic Ocean currents system shows signals of collapse.This could happen in 2025-2095 with 95% probability. Land to grow wheat may drop by half. Winter temperatures in North Europe could drop between 10 and 30 °C. 1/🧵

We are in the -omics times but, WHICH ONE IS BEST, Transcriptomics or Proteomics? Do they say the same from the same experiment? After this #NSFfunded project, we say that not always! We traced the diel cycle metabolism of DVM plankton, read for details! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…

Partis début octobre pour la mission « Bougainville » sur les BSAOM Champlain et d’Entrecasteaux, nos quatre volontaires officiers aspirants biodiversité ont déjà pu :

We usually consider size (allometry) as the main driver for plankton role in carbon export, but we show that zooplankton TRANSPARENCY is actually more correlated to C export @BatsBermuda, likely linked to dark migrators vs clear attenuators! #NSFfunded doi.org/10.1111/1755-0…

#MissionBougainville Marin et étudiant: qui sont nos VOA Biodiversité? L'ASP Thomas raconte «Il y a une part d’aventure qui m’attire dans ce projet. La vie à bord me permettra aussi de rencontrer des gens d’horizons différents qui partagent tous un intérêt pour le milieu marin»

Hier, a eu lieu la cérémonie de fin de cours des volontaires officiers aspirants, des officiers sous contrats et des élèves administrateurs des affaires maritimes ! Dès lundi, ils rejoindront leurs unités au service de la @MarineNationale ⚓️
