Person: Rachel Shelley

Dr. Rachel Shelley specializes in the biogeochemical cycling of trace elements in the ocean, with a focus on atmospheric supply and transfer across the air-sea interface. On the cruise, she will be working with Dr Bill Landing, Florida State University, to collect aerosol, rain water and sea water samples for the determination of a suite … Continued

Person: Michael Cunliffe

Michael Cunliffe currently holds a joint appointment between the Marine Biological Association of the UK (MBA) and Plymouth University. He joined the MBA in 2010 as an MBA Research Fellow, and in 2014 became a Lecturer in Marine Microbiology at Plymouth University. He has also been awarded an Honorary Lectureship in the Department of Environmental … Continued

Person: Janina Rahlff

Janina is a second year PhD student in the Environmental Science graduate program of the University of Oldenburg and part of Oliver Wurl’s “Sea Surface” working group. Her work has its focus on the role of microbiology on air-sea gas exchange processes in the surface microlayer. She uses microsensor technology to measure micro-gradients of oxygen, … Continued

Person: David Kadko

Dr. David Kadko’s research interests lie in utilizing naturally occurring radioactivity for the purpose of tracing the pathways and discovering the rates of various oceanic processes. Because naturally occurring radioisotopes have half-lives ranging from seconds to many years, it is possible to study processes that encompass a great variety of temporal and spatial scales. This … Continued
