National Oceanography Centre, Southampton
Debora is a biological oceanographer working at the National Oceanography Centre of the University of Southampton. She is interested in the way the oceans respond to human perturbation and is currently researching the impact of increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide levels on ocean PH; in particular, the effect of acidification on the life of marine animals and plants. The polar latitudes are the most susceptible of ecosystems as carbon dioxide dissolves more readily in colder waters. Debora is coordinator of a research team of scientists investigating the biological response of chalk-producing animals and plants to ocean acidification, and the negative influence of increasing acidity on healthy shell formation in certain organisms. During the Cape Farewell expedition she will measure the chemistry of what may be among the most corrosive waters in the world and investigate how this extreme chemistry affects the life of microscopic organisms.

Ya estoy enganchada a la expedición
Como si estuviese ahí pero desde 42.52 N, 8.33 O, desde Compostela 

Me encanta la idea de que toda la población del mundo está al sur de donde estáis. Nadie más detrás de vosotros! (creo que lo dijo David Buckland en su video)
No pica la lana de oveja islandica?
Un beso muy grande. Cuidate y disfruta muchisimo!
La proxima vez, sin emoticonos…
