Our teams across the country, and our partner organisations, have all been doing such a fantastic job: Setting up the disturbance recovery #experiments, and undertaking massive #seaweed #surveys all around the #UK 馃檶Well done to all involved! 馃寠馃馃寠 #science #coastal #ecology

It's been a busy 3 months! From completing setup on disturbance recovery #experiments in #SouthWales and #Orkney, through to #surveying 9 more #shores in #scotland and #Wales, the @NERCscience #BEFScale project has been making real progress in 2023. 馃馃寠馃馃寠#science @SwanseaUni
The set-up of our Disturbance-Recovery #experiment, spanning #Portugal to #Orkney, is nearing completion. Thx to the teams for your continuing hard work, helping make @NERCscience BEF-Scale project a success! #science #ecology #seaweed
A huge thanks to @JNGriffy, @Pippa_J_Moore, @DanSmale1, Francisco Arenas, @amelia_curd, Dominique Davoult, Mike Burrows, Thomas Burel, @marina_dolbeth, @JoanneSPorter, Aline Migne, @tom_fairchildand and @rubygeorge_, as well as the rest of the field teams, and @blueforesting 馃ぉ
This week #BEFScale researcher @tom_fairchild and Masters student Josh have been developing tools to map the abundance of diff #species of canopy-forming brown #seaweeds using our #multispectral #drone! We can see diffs between #fucus, #ascophyllum and #kelp spp! #science #coasts
Over the past few months we have been out mapping intertidal #seaweeds across the UK. Using extensive field and multispectral aerial surveys we are hoping to understand how diverse "Marine Forests" contribute to healthy #coastal #ecosystems across local and national scales 馃馃槏
