New preprint! “Genomics-based quantitative biogeography of marine plankton” - a Tara Oceans effort linking genomes to absolute biomass. Moving from who’s there to how much is there, across the global ocean. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Cover of book "Antarctica and the Earth System"
New book!! 📕
Antarctica is intimately connected to the rest of our planet, affecting climate, ecosystems, cultures and society. Our new book draws together international experts to explore this influence, and to understand what humans are doing to Antarctica (1/n)

Our latest paper, reporting shifts in microbial interaction patterns across a year at two Antarctic time-series monitoring programs, was featured in @niozsearesearch.bsky.social news!

Check out the podcast to learn more about our research on these tiny (but incredibly impactful) life form, work done in collaboration with @niozsearesearch.bsky.social and NWO-Netherlands Polar Programme
@bas.ac.uk's IceWorld podcast takes us back to my wonderful 4-month stint in 2022 at the Rothera Research Station & Dirk-Gerritz lab. I researched Southern Ocean microbial life together with Julia Engelmann to understand how climate change impacts nutrient cycles.

Preprint for a cool new marine microbe database, GRUMP, featuring all three microbial domains and profiled based on universal rRNA gene primers on 1194 samples from around the globe!

Little things really matter...! Excellent new paper by Swan Sow and colleagues about the importance of microbial interactions in Antarctica.
Delighted to make a (suitably small) contribution to this work - check it out!
