In case you missed it, we were thrilled to have been featured in The Times and The Sunday Times over the weekend. University of Exeter and Convex Seascape Survey researcher Dr. Ceri Lewis spoke about her obsession with mud whilst ConvexIn's Stephen Catlin talked about why the research is so important.

We’re hiring!

We're seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow to join the Convex Seascape Survey Project at Mandela University Department of Zoology in Gqeberha, South Africa!

You’d be joining a fully funded three-year project, working with an international team across various parts of the…

What a Team! Sampling done. Now time to set up the bioturbation experiment. The Convex Seascape Survey Blue Marine Foundation Global Systems Institute ExeterMarine

Lab set up complete, tanks labelled, now if it would just stop raining for our first trip out on the boat later. The Convex Seascape Survey Blue Marine Foundation Global Systems Institute ExeterMarine

Excited to be back in Millport for season 2 of the The Convex Seascape Survey great british bioturbationathon. Here's the season 1 recap 😂 Global Systems Institute ExeterMarine

Want to learn more about how the ocean absorbs and releases carbon?

Watch this video, where Dan Ford, from the University of Exeter, breaks down how the Convex Seascape Survey is proving that the ocean plays a more important role in the global carbon cycle than we realise.…

A great moment for the Convex Seascape Survey team last week, as Zoe Roseby spoke at the UK Centre for Seabed Mapping meeting! 🌊

We're excited to be part of this vital discussion on the role of seabed mapping in ocean science, alongside seven other Early Career Researcher's…

'By bringing together carbon accumulation maps with maps of human disturbance then we can start understanding the risks to those stores' @Profcallum at the @EconomistImpact #WorldOceanSummit

Ocean-climate solutions are on the agenda for next week’s #WorldOceanSummit 🌊

Our very own Professor Callum Roberts will be speaking about the ocean’s hidden carbon stores and the Convex Seascape Survey’s work to understand them.

Join us on Tuesday March 12th at 15:00.

Updates from the lab over at ExeterMarine ⚗️

Back in the lab for The Convex Seascape Survey #BlueCarbon experiments. Growing up some algae to track the carbon flows in seafloor ecosystems. Every day's a school day and every day is different!

We start with Ciarán McLaverty Did you know that bottom trawling was first mentioned in the 1300s, was undertaken in earnest in the 1700s and catches were already decreasing in the 1800s! The human influence on #Seafloor habitat is global and overwhelmingly negative.
