Happy world seagrass day everyone! The UK seagrass symposium is coming to Oban in 2027! What sessions or workshops would you like to see there? @projectseagrass.bsky.social @samsocean.bsky.social #UKSS2027

Nudibranch at the falls of Lora

🦤🌐🧪 The decomposition dynamics of 3 important #kelp species in the Northeast Atlantic with focus on the loss of dissolved carbon. We found that DOC is released in large amounts initially, providing valuable data around the complex processes involved in #carbon cycling of kelps.  bit.ly/meps_755_63

Another lovely aurora last night, the skies are so clear at the moment! #aurora #northernlights

On #InternationalDayOfForests, let's consider the forests we don't often see. Kelp forests in our seas act as nurseries and food sources, provide coastline protection and absorb CO2. Learn more in this episode of SAMS Ocean Explorer podcast: www.buzzsprout.com/1080152/epis... @thinkuhi.bsky.social

Tiny tiny tiny nudibranch mostly on kelp munching on hydroids, Scotland #nudibranch #nature #seaslug #MarineLife 🦑

Our new report on the changing state of Scotland's rocky seashores is out today. Changes from 2014-15 to 2020-22 in many species, including an ongoing decline in mussels. 167 sites in 3 years www.nature.scot/doc/naturesc...

One of these northern lights photos is from #scotland and one of them is from #iceland, can you guess which is which? #aurora #northernlights #auroraborealis #nature

Kelp from the Falls of Lora, Connel, Scotland. Just as the tide is turning and the current is starting to pick up! 🦑 #MarineLife #nature #kelp #scotland

Another #fluorescent beauty, the grey sea slug (Aeolidia papillosa) is anything but grey under blue lights! This #nudibranch is quite common in #Scotland #seaslug #diving #nature

Caronella pellucida is a nudibranch that has some really beautiful fluorescence, Loch Creran, Scotland. #fluorescencefriday #friday #nudibranch #nature

Three hours of starry, cold, crisp clear night photos into 6 seconds! #night #nature #stars

Here are some #star trails from Friday night, we've had some really clear skies recently in #scotland #startrail #night #nature

In September I captured the active volcano (bottom left) and an amazing aurora in Iceland. #iceland #aurora #northernlights #volcano #nature

A few seconds of #kelp at the Falls of Lora, Connel, Scotland. These algae withstand incredible forces down there. #nature #dive #scotland

Here are some cool #nudibranchs from Loch Creran. All taken in 2024. Did you know some nudis are #fluorescent under blue light? #seaslug #nature #scotland #wildlife #nudibranch

A few of the lovely #auroras from #2024 in Scotland. Hoping there will be many more in 2025! #aurora #northernlights #nature #nightsky
