Great to see the use of SMRU Instrumentation tags on grey and harbour seals published in this recent paper by SMRU researchers @mattidcarter.bsky.social and @djfrussell.bsky.social 🦭🛰️

New #OA paper in Landscape Ecology led by SMRU researchers @mattidcarter.bsky.social and @djfrussell.bsky.social reveals scale-dependent foraging behaviour and habitat associations of grey and harbour seals across the North Sea 🦭🧭 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

The work combined haulout counts and data from >840 seals tagged with @smruinstrument.bsky.social GPS devices, tracked in 7 European countries to generate at-sea density on country- and shelf-wide scales.

New @jappliedecology.bsky.social paper: SMRU researchers @mattidcarter.bsky.social & @djfrussell.bsky.social led a large collaborative team to map the distribution of grey and harbour seals at sea across the Northwest European Shelf 🦭 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

At‐sea distribution of seals on the Northwest European Shelf: Towards transboundary conservation and management

This study provides the first comprehensive, regionally scalable distribution estimates for pinnipeds across the NWES and its constituent countries. The modelling framework is adaptable to other cent....

A much nicer day today for some #marine #science with @uniofstandrews.bsky.social students at the @seamammalresearch.bsky.social. @smruinstrument.bsky.social tags being used again. Learning about #oceanography and #ecosystem #management.

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. 🦭📡 #RRSDiscovery #DiscoveryPointDundee #SMRUInstrumentation #MarineScience

Had an amazing weekend at the '100 Years of RRS Discovery' celebrations in #Dundee Thanks for the support from @seamammalresearch.bsky.social and @smruinstrument.bsky.social #RRS100 #Discovery100

Meet the Dunk-O-Matic! Our custom-built dunking device tests the Wet/Dry functionality of our tags, ensuring they’re field-ready! 🌊🦭🐢 #smruig #smru #telemetry #marinescience #marineresearch

🚀 Upcoming Talk! 🚀 Dr Lars Boehme from SMRU (@seamammalresearch.bsky.social) will share how SMRU Instrumentation tags and seals can help advance marine science. 🦭 📍 Discovery Point, Dundee. 📆 Sat 13 & Sun 14 September 🕧 12:30 pm both days More info: www.dundeeheritagetrust.co.uk/event/how-se...

Getting the Seal of Approval: Marine Animals as Ocean Scientists - Dundee Heritage Trust

From weather forecasting to understanding climate change, Dr Lars Boehme from the Sea Mammal Research Unit will discuss how seals can help us.
