Genomics of the Indoor Air Environment
Most of our life is spent in indoors, well-buffered from the constant changes in temperature, humidity, wind and light which shape life outside our homes and offices. It seems intuitive that the types of microorganisms which inhabit our indoor environment must be different from those on the...
Sorcerer II back at Sea!
June 13th 2010 After we collected and processed the sample from Blanes on May 26th we dropped off the collaborators on the dock, and set sail for France. After a overnight sail we reached our last Spanish sample site, it is in Spanish waters but monitored by French scientist. CTD...

The Great Blizzard Sample of Lake Redon!
May15th 2010 We decided to do the 3 lakes in the Banyoles area first because the weather in the Pyrenees was so bad that we wouldn't have been able to get up the mountain to sample Lake Redon. Lake Redon is a pristine Alpine lake that is sampled weekly by Spanish researchers. On Tuesday May...
