OceanICU Project
@oceanicu
The HorizonEU OceanICU project will produce new data, information and understanding on the role of the #ocean in the global #carbon cycle. #horizoneurope
For #InternationalYouthDay we are spotlighting one of our project's bright, young scientists #Dr.FilipaAfonso to learn why she thinks young people should be interested in #ocean #carbon. ocean-icu.eu/blogs/intern... #YouthDay @marineinst.bsky.social #MarineEcology #Oceanography #ECR #ECOP

OceanICU is pleased to be part of this coalition of projects investigating ocean carbon. We know calendars fill up quickly so please see more info at the link and save the date. #OceanCarbon #OceanClimateAction #MarineData #Science
Dr. Carla Freitas shares insights from her #research on the diving behaviour of common minke & fin #whales in Norway and the impact of whale-released nutrients on ocean primary production. Read her blog to learn more. ocean-icu.eu/blogs/how-wh... #MarineBiology #OceanCarbon #STEMWomen
Today's awareness & appreciation campaign reminds us that everyday the Ocean provides an invaluable service sequestering carbon to slow down the effects of climate change. OceanICU delivers research towards better policy to protect our Ocean. #WorldOceanDay #OceanClimateAction #OceanConservation

They are architects building houses while floating through oceans. They are engineers capturing atmospheric carbon, atom by atom. While you breathe, they work. While you sleep, they build. While you read this, they're protecting our climate system. Who are they? #OceanGuardians
In a world visible only under a microscope, a story unfolds that's changing our planet. Like grains of sand that build beaches, these microscopic organisms are constructing something far greater. Illustrations by Rosie Sheward. #InvisibleHeroes #OceanGuardians #ClimateWarriors
