My second visit to Jubany
This is my second visit to Jubany. I have already visited the Jubany station in January-February 2010 and that was an extraordinary experience. So I was really excited to find out that also this year our application was approved and that I could leave for another expedition to this wonderful place near Potter Cove on King Georges Island.
First dives for me...not a very lucky day!
Today I have been on the zodiac together with the Argentinean divers, Jorge, Sergio and Eduardo and Gaston in order to sample some cores from my 3 stations.
Meiofauna investigations in Potter Cove: And the show has started!
Finally after the troubleshooting of a few (quiet normal and easily expected in the “in field life”) technical problems, the sampling for the starting of my experiments has happened.
