PML scientists have featured in a short documentary by RAZOR Science show: ‘What have #plankton ever done for us?’. Thank you to Claire Widdicombe, Dr Matt Cole, Dr James Clark, Dr Peter Miller & Prof Angus Atkinson for taking the time to speak to the crew! Watch:🔗 www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFnz...

WATCH: PML on ITV tonight at 7pm (UK time)! Dr James Clark (@drjimclark.bsky.social) and Dr Saskia Rühl were among the PML experts interviewed by Martin Stew / ITV News about our #AI capabilities, including the APICS project which uses #MachineLearning to identify #plankton species.

New Publication Alert – The Western Channel Observatory Automated Plankton Imaging and Classification System! See doi.org/10.5670/ocea.... @plymouthmarine.bsky.social

In addition to studying ocean transport, particle tracking models can be used for fun! Animation made using the model PyLag (github.com/pmlmodelling...), which I coded while at @plymouthmarine.bsky.social, and surface ocean currents from CMEMS (Product: GLOBAL_REANALYSIS_PHY_001_031). Enjoy!

We have a #PhD available on using he latest advances in #AI research to figure out where to place environmental sensors! With @exeter.ac.uk and @plymouthmarine.bsky.social. The supervisors are @davidjohnwalker.bsky.social, Jacqueline Christmas and myself. Please see: www.exeter.ac.uk/study/fundin...

AquaPLAN launches the first interactive map of European marine & freshwater habitats affected by both #LightPollution & #NoisePollution. Led by PML, the Visualisation Portal is the first step to manage the combined impacts of light & noise pollution on #AquaticBiodiversity: pml.ac.uk/news/first-m...

If you have expertise in #ML and an interest in the marine environment, please look at this opportunity with the awesome Nicolas Pugeault: jobs.ac.uk/job/DKS129/r... You will be working on the NERC Science funded DEAL project (pml.ac.uk/projects/dea...).

A reminder that we are currently advertising 3 #PhD studentships that will involve working with the new NERC Sciences #APICS sensor. The deadline for applying is in early January - see the project descriptions. If you are interested please get in touch!

We are advertising 3 #PhD Studentships where the successful applicants will become some of the first people in the world to work with data from the new NERC Science APICS sensor (see www.pml.ac.uk/science/proj...). More details on the individual projects can be found below.
