In her post Surveying the Deep Debby shares: "Apart from getting to dive in areas that leisure divers do not frequent, it was a real eyeopener to be diving with a diverse group of scientists from around the world who have such varied interests and expertise!"


In her post Cryptic Critters on Whips, Crinoids, and in the Dirt, Debby explains: "Not only are we on an expedition, we’re on an expedition in really turbid waters. Losing your buddy is a given. But you won’t be able to do any work at all if you lose your equipment. So the less things you have to focus on getting a grip on, the better. In an attempt to keep his hands free (and look like a Gearhead) Dr Tan Heok Hui, who’s a fish biologist with the Raffles Museum of Biodiversity and Research, dons his helmet fitted with light and camera for our first dive at Pulau Hantu!"

In her post A Macro Look at Macro Life Debby shares: "Rather than lamenting the limited underwater visibility, take advantage of it! Our city reefs may not seem like much at first, but it is evidently a prized habitat for many species of nudibranchs"
