🌊 Mission completed! The TwinDEEPS #GorringeExpedition wrapped up after intensive days exploring the Portuguese #deepsea! The final day was filled with guided visits to Pelagia and an exciting seminar at CIIMAR where the first highlights from the expedition were shared. #GorringeBank

Absolutely ecstatic! Just as Portugal announces the Gorringe Bank as a new Marine Protected Area, the #TwinDEEPS expedition team is right here on-site, exploring its deep-sea habitats. #MPA #OceanScience #Gorringe #HighSeas #UNOC3 📷 Credits:EMEPC, @niozsearesearch.bsky.social, @ciimar.bsky.social

🌊 We celebrated #WorldOceanDay with a group of curious 8th graders! We talked about why the ocean and the deep sea are so important, and what it’s like to live and work on a research vessel! Inspiring future ocean stewards is the best way to celebrate!🌊 #ScienceOutreach #HorizonEurope #OceanDecade

⚓ Today’s the day! ⚓ The #TwinDEEPS research expedition to the Gorringe Bank is about to start onboard RV Pelagia! Stay tuned for updates, as we dive into the unknown! 🌊 #GorringeExpedition #MarineScience #OceanResearch #DeepSea #Capacitation #HorizonEurope #OceanDecade

🌊 Deep-sea explorers aboard the PHOSFLUX expedition 🌊 TwinDEEPS team members Diana Sousa and Miguel Semedo have joined the PHOSFLUX expedition aboard the RV Pelagia, operated by the @niozsearesearch.bsky.social. Check the 🧵 for details. 🔗 About PHOSFLUX expedition: www.nioz.nl/en/blog/the-...

▶️ Exciting collaborations in action! ◀️ CIIMAR's data stewards Maria Tomasino and Carolina Ventura are at @awi.de, receiving hands-on training with the #PANGAEA team to boost @ciimar.bsky.social data stewardship capacity — all aligned with #FAIR and #OpenScience principles. 🌊

First TwinDEEPS training activity ✅ Still buzzing after the Cruise Leadership workshop hosted by NIOZ in cooperation with all TwinDEEPS partners. Participants got hands-on training on how to design and plan oceanographic campaigns. 🌊 #DeepSea #OceanExploration #MarineScience #HorizonEurope

Launch of EMB's Future Science Brief #12: "Deep-sea Research and Management Needs" on April 11th. 📌 TwinDEEPS team member Miguel Semedo contributed to this Science Brief as part of EMB’s Working Group on Deep-Sea and Ocean Health. 👏 #deepsea #oceanscience #HorizonEurope

Impossible things happened last week! 💡 @marpinheiro.bsky.social, @ciimar.bsky.social researcher, joined the #impossiblethingsworkshop with TwinDEEPS’ support. Organized by @twilighted-eu.bsky.social, the workshop explored low-cost ways to make deep-sea research more accessible! 🌊

Great news for deep-sea biodiversity, coming from Portugal! 🤩 Portugal leads the way, by being the first european country to approve in parliament a 25 year moratorium law on deep-sea mining! Check the full news here: tinyurl.com/2u5dh2x8 #deepsea #sustainability #ocean #portugal

TwinDEEPS team took deep-sea research out of the depths and into the hands of future ocean researchers! 🌊 "Deep Sea: Be a Taxonomist for a Day" was an interactive workshop held in the scope of #JornadasDoMar2025 where participants explored deep sea ecosystems, through the eyes of a taxonomist. 🔬

TwinDEEPS and @ciimar.bsky.social at the #WorldOceanSummit! 🌊 Our project coordinator, @joanaxavier.bsky.social presented yesterday on the advancement of deep-ocean exploration and observation capacity for sustainable development! 👏 #Ocean #DeepSea #Sustainability
