The world's largest coral lives off of Nusa Penida, Bali, - and my @PlymUni students and I dived on it last week on our scientific diving field course. Amazing!
I'm so excited to be featured in this excellent article that highlights how important plankton are and the key roles of @osparcomm and the @Plkt_Manifesto in assessing and championing plankton.

More @CPRSurvey love, this time from @PlymUni @MatthewMHolland who used CPR data to look at plankton lifeforms for @osparcomm and UK biodiversity assessment.
