Algae can be red, and even a shade of blue. We love algae for lots of reasons, not least that they store CO2! Happy Valentine's Day from SAMS.

Look at this! Hitchhiking algae. Among the plankton is this copepod with an epizoic diatom bloom growing upon its body. But, what is the relationship? @zeiss_micro

PhD student Ellie Murphy created this amazing, intricate Christmas tree using marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum. This model species is used frequently in our labs notably to investigate cellular mechanisms using molecular techniques like crispr-cas9 gene editing @thembauk

Looking forward to kicking off our biological oceanographic survey of #HABs aboard #RVCelticVoyager We will be focusing on the #PSP causative organism #Alexandrium by microscopy, molecular and toxin analysis, and #Karenia using @noaacoastalsci developed #habscope @RVMarineInst

We've just finalised & made available all 2019 CPR data! This is a phenomenal achievement; #Covid19 forced many labs to pause sampling efforts, but thanks to support from the intl. shipping community & huge efforts from the CPR Survey team, the Survey continued uninterrupted!

Spotted this beautiful glimpse into the world of plankton, exploiting nutrients and sunlight to bloom, getting swept along with the tidal currents over sandbanks, and mixing with other species. #ScienceArt from #EarthObservation. #Sentinel3 01 Jun 2021 True colour @NEODAAS

#Spring has sprung! As the days get longer, #phytoplankton start to reproduce in high numbers, triggered by increasing light levels and reduced mixing/calmer seas. These large scale events are called #blooms, and an important part in the ocean food web #SpringBloom

An arrow worm full of copepods and a crab zoea. What if people could see how much we've eaten! @zeiss_micro

New #publication "Geographical variation in the carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus content of blue #mussels, #Mytilus edulis." Thanks to all my co-authors. We explore differences in #cnp of #mussel shell and tissue and how/why this varies around the #UK. authors.elsevier.com/a/1cvh3…

CCAP 678/3 Spirogyra varians We shipped this strain yesterday and it looks so lovely on agar with its swirly growth. Originally collected in Cambridge in 1947, this is one of our older strains (though a youngster compared to CCAP 211/11B Chlorella vulgaris- collected in 1890!)
