I am travelling across the Southern Atlantic Ocean on board the R/V Melville as part of a research cruise led by Dr. William 'Barney' Balch of Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences (in America). Looking at coccolithophore community structure and sinking particles, aka marine snow.

Keeping track of you via
