🌊🚀 @plocan, in collaboration with GOB-IOCAG (@ULPGC), launches a new glider mission as part of the seasonal ocean observation program in the Canary Islands. Monitoring our oceans, one dive at a time! @agenciaiisi #OceanScience #Glider #CanaryIslands


📢We’re excited to share that two of our members are organizing a session on physical-biogeochemical interactions at the highest resolutions for the 2026 Ocean Sciences Meeting in Glasgow, UK. 🌊 Fascinating topic! Spread the word! @AGU_OS #OceanScience agu.confex.com/agu/osm26/prel…

🏆 @ULPGC honors research excellence! Our group won in Recognized Research Groups for our scientific productivity, and our PI Javier Arístegui was awarded for his Individual Research Career. A proud moment for impactful science at our university! Thank you 🙏#ResearchExcellence

Our Principal Investigator, Javier Arístegui, and our PhD student, Aja Trebec, attended the third @Oceanicu_carbon Annual Science Meeting, held at the Institute of Oceanology Polish Academy of Sciences, to share their work and explore future steps. What a wonderful experience🙏🌏

Check out this brilliant article by our colleague Dr. Javier Lezaun (@InSIS) on our 2021 mesocosm study in Gran Canaria! The first ever to explore how ocean alkalinity enhancement, a potenital climate solution, impacts natural plankton communities 🌊🔬limn.press/article/middli…

¡Enhorabuena a @SantosBruna_JJ! 🏅 Nuestro estudiante ha sido premiado por la @ULPGC con el Premio de Orden Promocional por su excelente expediente. Realizó su tesis de máster, publicada en Marine Environmental Research, en nuestro grupo ¡Un orgullo! 👏🎓 #ExcelenciaAcademica
Congratulations to @SantosBruna_JJ on your publication titled “Assessment of potential eutrophication in coastal waters of Gran Canaria: Impact on plankton community under CO2 depletion” 🎉 sciencedirect.com/science/articl… What an exciting contribution! 🌊 #Research #MarineBiology
🌊 Este fin de semana estuvimos en @fimar_lpgc, junto con nuestros compañeros del @IOCAG1, compartiendo nuestra pasión por el océano y las ciencias del mar. ¡Muchísimas gracias a quienes se acercaron y a los que organizaron este magnífico evento!🔬🌍 #FIMAR


🌊 Charting carbon currents! As part of the @Oceanicu_carbon project, we embarked on a research cruise from Namibia to Gran Canaria aboard RV Sarmiento de Gamboa to study how the ocean captures CO₂—and how climate stressors may affect its role as a carbon sink🚢 #ClimateScience




New preprint is now open for discussion! 🎉 Check out our latest contribution to ocean alkalinity enhancement research ⬇️ doi.org/10.5194/egusph…
Congratulations to our esteemed alum and collaborator @Mar__Benavides! 🎉 This well-deserved recognition is a testament to your dedication and excellence. We are proud to celebrate your achievement and look forward to your continued success
Congratulations to NOC's Dr Mar Benavides (@Mar__Benavides) who has been awarded the the Yentsch-Schindler Early Career Award by @aslo_org! 🏅 Find out more about the award here 👉 aslo.org/aslo-awards/20…
🚨A new preprint on mesoscale dynamics, featuring results from cruises crossing eddies in the Canary Eddy Corridor, is now open for discussion 🌀. These cruises were conducted as part of our #eIMPACT project. Dive into the findings below! 🌍@OFYGA_ULPGC @IOCAG1 @IIM_CSIC @GRAFCAN
Discussion open for comments on @EgUsphere: Mesoscale dynamics of an intrathermocline eddy in the Canary Eddy Corridor doi.org/10.5194/egusph…
Congratulations to @SantosBruna_JJ on your publication titled “Assessment of potential eutrophication in coastal waters of Gran Canaria: Impact on plankton community under CO2 depletion” 🎉 sciencedirect.com/science/articl… What an exciting contribution! 🌊 #Research #MarineBiology
🚨 New Paper Alert! 🚨 We explored how free-living & particle-associated microbial communities respond to different upwelling modes (single & recurring pulses) 🌊🦠 Great work Markel Gómez-Letona 👏 🔗aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ln… #ASLO #Upwelling #MarineScience
🎉 Congratulations to our PhD student Laura on her latest publication! 🌊📚 Dive into our exciting findings from the Bergen mesocosm experiment on OAE, part of the @OceanNETs_EU project. 🌎💡 #OceanResearch #ClimateAction
📢 Exciting news! Our Bergen experiment on Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement is published! 🌊👩🔬 @OceanNETs_EU @aquacosm We found phytoplankton showed resilience to non-CO₂ equilibrated OAE. However, nutrient-rich conditions may delay bloom formation. 🌱 #ClimateAction #OceanScience
Great job from our PhD student Laura Marín Samper (@marin_samper) at the @OceanOpticsConf! She presented a research on testing active fluorometry for studying primary production at high spatial resolution across cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies🌀 @GroupBiological @IOCAG1 @ULPGC
Excited to join the upcoming workshop on climate action and explore the groundbreaking WHOI LOC-NESS project on ocean alkalinity enhancement! Looking forward to learning more about this innovative initiative. 🌊 #OceanScience #ClimateAction
Join us on Aug. 21 for a virtual public info session exploring the need for ocean-based #climatesolutions –and the critical role of science in evaluating effectiveness and safety. 📲 Streaming live here on X from 6:30-7:30pm ET– or register for the Zoom: go.whoi.edu/aug-21
