Studying the smallest thing in the ocean can help fill in the big picture of an area's biodiversity. By collecting all different kinds of plankton during our first leg of our Around Africa Expedition with OceanQuest, researchers can gain remarkable information.

[1/2] During our Around Africa Expedition with OceanQuest, the OceanXplorer passed over an oxygen minimum zone, also known as an OMZ. We had our Early Career Explorers on board in partnership with @POGO_Ocean, presenting a great opportunity to learn more about this zone & region.

Klaus war einer der Großen im Bereich Umwelt und Nachhaltigkeit und immer auch ein Freund des Ozeans. Ich habe ihm viel zu verdanken. R.I.P. lieber Klaus.
Klaus Töpfer ist tot - was für eine traurige Nachricht 🖤. Klaus Töpfer hat so viele von uns - in der Umwelt- und Klima-Community - geprägt. Ich durfte einige Jahre mit ihm das ⁦@SDSN_Germany⁩ - Netzwerk leiten. Dafür bin ich sehr dankbar. zdf.de/nachrichten/politik/d…

A Pink Flamingo Society panel discussion at #OceanDecade24 in Barcelona — the society, founded by @SchmidtOcean in 2019, promotes the safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible operation of research vessels primarily funded through philanthropy. #PinkFlamingoSociety

Exciting update from #OceanDecadeWeek in Barcelona! CORDAP hosted an insightful event diving deep into ocean exploration. Plenary sessions shone a spotlight on understanding the mysterious deep sea, including the importance of deep-water corals and the role of philanthropy. We explored the endless benefits of ocean exploration - from discovering new species to understanding marine ecosystems. Thank you to everyone who showed up, to our amazing speakers, panelists and partners @ICMCSIC @SchmidtOcean @rev_ocean @KAUST_News @TaraOcean_ and to our enthusiastic master of ceremonies @danniwashington Stay tuned for more updates from the @UNOceanDecade Conference! If you're in Barcelona, meet us on April 11, at 8.30 in the Indian Ocean Room of CCIB for The Coral Breakthrough event, and on April 12, same time and place, to discuss the Science Requirements to meet the GBF for corals. We hope to SEA you there! #oceandecade24 #oceandecadeconference
