@UCD_Earth_Sci @MarineInst Sure! "Blue Carbon" is the term for the ability of the ocean and it's ecosystems to store carbon. In particular, we're interested in sediments on the seafloor and the carbon they contain, mainly in the form of organic matter, which is why we take these samples to analyse πŸ‘‡

This was fun today to team up with the #RVCelticExplorer and do some field experiments around trawling and blue carbon potential of marine sediments. Many thanks to @MarineInst for facilitating πŸ‘
