Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument

#canyousayit Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument (PMNM)! This expedition involved the mapping and subsequent ROV dives on enigmatic seamounts located in a poorly explored area of the PMNM. Oh, and we saw a gulper eel!

Southern Ocean - 6 weeks

East Scotia Ridge, vents seeps and whales falls - the cruise that started it all!

This was the first expedition of my PhD, my first time on a scientific research vessel and, my first time working with an ROV.

Mind blown.

Working with OET, the SUBSEA (Systematic Underwater Biogeochemical Science and Exploration Analog) Research Program, is a partnership between space and ocean exploration, to address knowledge gaps related to the habitability potential of other planets in our Solar System. Out of this world! Read about the discovery of the new Apollo vent field here.

I have spent over 450 days exploring our oceans using deep-submergence technologies and a further 80 days offshore conducting ecological surveys, both 12hr and 24hr operations, around the coast of the UK.
