Sorry folks I have been working working and working and have no time for the adventure blog...until now that is..........Well it is one week until I GO DEEP!
The only adventure offshore I may get during my PhD and it is with my 6th floor Davy partner in crime, Jaime! We will be going to the Anton Dorhn seamount and Rockhall bank on the west coast of Ireland for 3.5 weeks approximately with a swedish vessel RV Franklin.
I am nervous and excited all at the same time. The aim is to perform video transects of the benthos and also collect high quality stills images and maybe try and undertake grabs and bring some samples back to the lab.
Now is the time to bug the se sickness tabs and load myself up with ginger.......... for now back to work folks. This is just a little taster, I will post some piccies and maps at the end of the day.
Signing out,
Maria
