There’s also a webinar to discuss collaborative research opportunities with the Digital Depth programme, new fellowships for global ocean observation, and multiple PhD openings. Finally, scroll to the end for a look into the technology Colleen Hansel’s team at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution are using to study how deep-sea corals use Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS).
