Last year, we started blogging from the Dr. Fridtjof Nansen. We continued to blog this year. One of ASCLME's partners, the GEF-Funded IUCN Seamounts Project are also blogging from aboard the Nansen. To reduce duplication of effort (or diluting the audience) we've halted blogging on our own site for now - for continued updates, please see the 2009 Seamounts Cruise Blog.
The 2009 Seamounts cruise blog being run from the Dr. Fridtjof Nansen is being syndicated on BBC News' "Earth News" section.
To keep up to date with this exciting cruise, be sure to visit the Earth News section of the BBC website here, or visit the 2009 Seamounts Cruise Blog here. |

 “This is the first time I’ve attended the PSC meeting and, before I came here, I had a completely different perception of this project. I am glad to have attended this meeting because I now have a detailed understanding of the project. Generally, I’m very impressed. After only year, the project has already produced certain products and the outreach is very good. Now that I understand the project, I will be in a better position to coordinate my country’s participation. I am going to set up an office in the Institute to facilitate Kenya’s participation in the ASCLME Project.” Johnson Kazungu, Executive Director of Kenyan Marine and Fisheries Research Institute
