The Sargasso Sea is a vibrant and unique ocean ecosystem that provides critical food resources, breeding grounds and part of migratory routes for a great diversity of marine species and seabirds.
Yachts For Science is looking for vessels in the Bermuda area that could assist taking 2-3 marine researchers out to conduct sampling of the Sargassum community, associated plastic marine debris, and make seabird and marine mammal observations around Bermuda. Are you planning to stop in Bermuda later this year? Dr Robbie Smith has a lot of blue water sailing experience – so if you are short-handed this might also be an added bonus!
