A wet and wild day along the Cornish coast today, but that didn't hold back our second year undergraduates from collecting some great biodiversity data!

A huge well done to all our students (past and present!), academics and partners who have contributed to this positive news ππ’π€©
Hard work makes a difference...

Dusky dolphins (Lagenorhynchus obscurus) can make significant energy savings by bow-riding according to a new study.

Video shows dolphins I filmed bow-riding the RV Tangaroa earlier this year.

I love that my job enables me to experience incredible #wildlife. Like this leopard seal in #Antarctica, who checked us out whilst we were deploying seabed cameras.
Later, this same seal punctured another boat and we had to rescue the occupants!
