Standing room only at our anthropogenic impacts on blue carbon #OSM26 session, followed by a vibrant poster session. Big challenges, but such a collegiate and engaging community working on it. Came away energised & more excited about our QUEST research, presented by Phoebe Walsh & Mark Chatting.

Brief offshore dalliance this week doing a few interesting tasks, such a tonic for the academic soul. To quote idiosyncratic, post-punk artists Sea Power: "The salt, the spray, the gorgeous undertow Always, always, always the sea" 🌊

A stimulating week at #EGU25. Co-convened a #bluecarbon session, w/Phoebe Walsh presenting her latest PhD research on trawling impacts & seafloor recovery. Shauna Creane & Aelita Totska presented a new sediment mobility tool, and Muireann Walsh gave her first PhD poster on Irish Sea morpodynamics 👏
