The book “People, science and instruments of the BioSWOT-Med campaign” was published on the occasion of the BioSWOT2025 meeting (Marseille, 5-7 May 225). It was created with the aim to give an overview of the scientific richness of an oceanographic campaign and to preserve the memory of the passion and dedication of the participants of the BioSWOT-Med project.
In the book “People, science and instruments of the BioSWOT-Med campaign” you can learn about the people, the science, and the instruments that made the BioSWOT-Med campaign in April – May 2023. In the first three sections, you can find the collection of a series of interviews carried out to cruise participants before the start of the campaign (“The research themes”, “The instruments of oceanographers”, “The new wave of oceanographers”).
In the last section, a selection of stories and anecdotes shared by the researchers while at sea are reported (“Dispatches from sea”).
“We hope you enjoy the reading and become fascinated by state of the art research on ocean fine scales.” Andrea and Tosca
