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

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) 🦀 @AustmusResearch @austmus @CSIRO @museumsvictoria @BushBlitz2

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 @austmus @AustmusResearch @CSIRO @museumsvictoria

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
