#UoGmarine field course signing off for 2021. This bunch were an absolute pleasure to teach: attentive, enthusiastic, hard working, and always asking questions. See you back in the lab! @uglosbioscience @GlosEcolEnvSci
Can you spot the #seal pups?! Day 3 of #UoGmarine: grey seals, shy shearwaters, Grassholm’s gannets and a glimpse of a harbour porpoise. Thanks to @skomer_island @oxnav_group for a great day. @uglosbioscience @GlosEcolEnvSci
...and here's a timelapse of the students in action. Extra points if you spot the dog and the oil tanker! #UoGmarine @uglosbioscience @UoGNatSocSci @uniofglos @FSCDaleFort
Day 2 #UoGmarine was down on the rocky shore at Castlebeach: low tides but high spirits despite the occasional drop (or bucket full) of liquid sunshine! @uglosbioscience @UoGNatSocSci @uniofglos @FSCDaleFort
First day of the #UoGmarine field course was a glorious day for #plankton and #microplastic sampling @uglosbioscience @UoGNatSocSci @uniofglos @FSCDaleFort
2/4 @bryony6192 has been an outstanding #UoGPGR student at @uniofglos... teaching on our #UoGmarine field course, presenting a prize winning @UoGresearch poster, a great support to so many students... and of course a cracking scientist!
Great blog post on #plastic #pollution in #seabirds by @Nina_OHanlon... most of it from #fishing gear #UoGmarine www.bou.org.uk/blog-ohanlon-northern-ga...
2/2 ...and #Grassholm didn't disappoint! @uglosbioscience

1/2 I'm back at @uglosbioscience today, but a bit of me is still by the sea... love this vid of our #UoGmarine students zooming out to #Grassholm @RSPBRamsey @uniofglos @UGlosEcolEnvSci
Glorious sunshine to round off a cracking week at @FSCDaleFort... thanks to a great bunch of students, guest speakers, Island wardens, boatmen, centre staff and Hannah our awesome tech for making it such a success. #UoGmarine signing off!
It was all things #plankton yesterday on #UoGmarine... high diversity between sampling sites: molluscs, crustacea, diatoms and much more... @FSCDaleFort @uglosbioscience @UGlosEcolEnvSci
#RockyShore #ecology today for #UoGmarine... some great #fieldwork skills, and impressive #marine #biodiversity at Castle Beach
Real treat to see #dolphins on our way out to #Grassholm yesterday... six adults and two calves #UoGmarine #fieldwork #biology @uglosbioscience @uglosecolenvsci @UoGNatSocSci @uniofglos
Superb #UoGmarine trip to @skomer_island: huge thanks to wardens and @martyna_syposz for fascinating insights #seals #seabirds #sunshine #fieldwork #biology @FSCDaleFort
Today it was a touch windy! @FSCDaleFort #UoGmarine
This is my ‘we couldn’t go to @skomer_island today’ face! Hope the seals, wardens and researchers are clinging on! @martyna_syposz #UoGmarine #StormAli photo: Tom Cowley
