I gotta say, when we’re not covered in guts and slime, the @AustmusResearch scientists do clean up pretty well! 🥰

What a jam-packed day of marine science! 🌊 Our @austmus fish team and marine invertebrates team pulled out all the stops. Students & the general public came by to see our live specimens, the famous Mr Blobby, pufferfish, upside-down jellyfish and much more 🐟🪼🪸
Check out my recent blog for @AustmusResearch summarising our time on the RV Investigator! 🦐🐙🐟🦈
What is a seamount? Why and how do we collect specimens? And what did we find? 🔎
@ClaireRowe28 @austmus, who was recently onboard the RV Investigator, helps us answer these questions! Find out more here 👇

With @melkmack and @ClaireRowe28 on #RVInvestigator at Muirfield seamount in the Indian Ocean. Wonderful collection of sponges and soft corals from the epibenthic sled yielded lots of little critters thanks to our diligent sorters. @CSIRO @BushBlitz2 @AustmusResearch
Incredible sunrise on the #RVInvestigator this morning with @PennyBerents sorting through our catch! It was a shallow trawl at 100m and we brought up this cute shame faced crab (Calappidae) 🦀

Today on the #RVInvestigator we sent a beam trawl down to 2000m depth inside the Cocos Keeling Marine Park. We collected lots of interesting marine inverts including a squat lobster!🦞#InvestigatingTheIOT

Great job AM team! Our first beam trawl from 3,600 m came up in the early hours of the morning, and the science team from @CSIRO, @austmus, and @museumsvictoria wasted no time at all in recovering, sorting, sampling, and preserving our catch!

And we’re off!!
This morning, the @CSIRO #RVInvestigator ship began a five-week deep sea expedition. 👀
It will take 6 days to reach the ‘Balthazar’ seamount near Christmas Island.
From there, we will start surveying the #DeepSeas for the very first time!
#InvestigatingTheIOT – at Darwin, Northern Territory
