<strong>NECCTON's first virtual science meeting was a great success. Providing an opportunity for the whole team to gather and share details of scientific advancements in the first six months of the project.&nbsp;</strong><br />
<br />
All partners joined the meeting along with colleagues from other EU Horizon projects <a href="https://www.futuremares.eu/" target="_blank">FutureMARES</a>&nbsp;and <a href="https://www.actnow-project.eu/" target="_blank">ACTNOW</a>. The agenda for the day was wide ranging covering topics from machine learning and model biases, to micronekton dynamics and bloom phenology.&nbsp; This was the first time the whole NECCTON team has gathered since our kick-off meeting in January, giving us a opportunity to share and discuss our work, ask probing questions and develop are connections.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Full details of the talks shared at this meeting are given in our recent <a href="https://5liu3.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/mr/sh/SMJz09SDriOHUOib7MFVKTl1gMuh/5wLCMBfI2THb" target="_blank">NEWSLETTER</a>, take a look to find out more.&nbsp;
