A good sign that science is healthy - big claims are scrutinised, criticised fairly and responded to with sensible arguments. It is clear is that there are huge uncertainty around carbon release from bottom fishing gears and more work is needed before attempting global estimates.

It’s important to have a clear research area and even more important to make sure that it matches any funding you can get #cartoon #academia #science

@CefasGovUK oceanographer of 30 years Liam Fernand left today for a new role. This popped up at his leaving party; the time we stealth-swapped one of the antique photos. It hung undiscovered for about 2 years. I think we nailed the 1880s @Clem2012Garcia @AceSkene

End of the 3rd day of @ICES_ASC #WGFBIT. How do you relate infaunal functional traits and seabed biogeochemistry?... with great difficulties, that's how! Luckily we've got a lot of great data and a motivated team! Exciting challenges ahead. @MarijaSciberras @RuthParkercefas
