Great to see SMRU Instrumentation tags being used as CTDs for teaching @uniofstandrews.bsky.social with @oceanlars.bsky.social 🌊📡

First trip out with students of @uniofstandrews.bsky.social as part of their #marine #ecology training this semester. Dry but windy.
We might even have collected some useful data 😊
Thanks to @seamammalresearch.bsky.social for letting us use their boat.
@smruinstrument.bsky.social tags as CTDs 😳

Brilliant to hear @oceanlars.bsky.social speak at Discovery Point in Dundee this weekend on 'Marine Animals as Ocean Scientists’.
He shared how SMRU Instrumentation tags are helping turn seals into ocean data collectors. 🦭📡
