Want to hear more about the QUICCHE project about Agulhas Leakage? Swing by the poster session. If you stop by Rachel Sampson or Lindsay Grose's posters you may also pick up some of our STEM card game!
I was clearly a little too excited to be having a DIMSUM lunch with @hollyayres.bsky.social and Marilena Oltmanns at #OSM26. Come see what science Team.DIMSUM as been doing: 2 talks on Thursday am, and poster on wed afternoon
Lady Turbulence Team strikes again! #scoratomix @ #OSM26
Look at these cheerful scientists on the first day of #OSM26. Still smiling just like how we mean to go on! @selipot.bsky.social
Excited for the #sciart events during #OSM26 that @neilbanas.bsky.social,.Glasgow local and brilliant oceanographer is organising!
We are advertising for a Lecturer in Physical Oceanography, closing date 31 March.
If you have research interests in the shelf seas, estuarine and coastal oceans then this could be for you!
And you could do research using UEA's fleet of ocean gliders

Still plenty of space for folks to sign up for cryo-coffee! See the qr codes in the image to sign up as either a mentor or metee
This was a teaching cruise where the students got to plan and execute the field experiment. Letting them make these decisions was important and they now get to work up the data to see if their plan worked well. All part of the learning. I was there to provide guidance when needed.
Experiment complete, or so the @sosbangor.bsky.social students have declared! We are heading back into Menai Bridge on this glorious day
Heading out this morning on the Prince Madog with @sosbangor.bsky.social physical oceanography Masters students. On the hunt for SIPS in Conwy Bay!

Flash Freeze is happening again! This is a great opportunity for students to receive funding to pursue their own ideas. Apply by October 31st.
If you're not a student, come support them and see their great presentations on Thursday December 18th.

Thank you, it was pretty smooth and uneventful.... You should consider going to this meeting in 2027. It's pretty awesome!
Well that's a wrap of the Coastal Dynamics GRC for 2025. A great meeting and was so pleased to have the chance to hang out with awesome polar oceanographers Yoshi Nakamaya, Seth Danielson and Kiki Schulz! Until next time all...
So much potential for crowd-sourcing data! And so much fun dreaming up ways to get kids as excited about the ocean as we are with @rejectedbanana.bsky.social ππ§ͺ
Partial solar eclipse over the UK now. Best seen through the cool glasses from the NASA booth I picked up at the last AGU Ocean Sciences meeting, but that was hard to photograph. Here's the shadows from my colander showing the crescent shadow instead π§ͺ
@zacklabe.com continuing to draw vital attention to the crazy warming of the Arctic.
Continuing this work in the face of uncertainty during these calamitous times is what fortitude is all about. Thank you for these great graphic tools.
Your graphics are amazing @zacklabe.com! Never give up, your work is so very much appreciated. Also it's such a great example of how climate science is a global village when you consider the data sources you use.
Sigh 84% similarity score for a new manuscript submission. Can authors please stop just shopping their manuscripts around and properly reconsider why your study was rejected by a different journal. This just wastes everyone's time and doesn't advance science π§ͺπ
Yep, in the same position. Am gently reminding all authors who favour non-UNCLOS compliant placenames that they must indicate the recognised name is what most people use for the territories in question. Also, who wants to read a paper about the Gulf of America? Sounds like a non-place to me.....
The other half comes home and states "did I tell you my bottom friction is working?" Definitely in the category of things only oceanographers say to each other that can be easily misconstrued by others! π§ͺπ
Difficult times calls for ever more determination to celebrate joyful things. Like this spectacular wintry walk under some altocumulus clouds today!
I don't do watches anymore, sadly, as they weirdly irritate my wrists. Would have been all over this otherwise!
If you have an Apple watch and enjoy venturing into the sea, this would be seriously cool to try!
Been on here for a while, but not been posting much anywhere. However it's exciting to see the community exploding now, though the reason for it is somewhat crushing.
Welcome @ianmbrooks.bsky.social
Jeff is extremely pleased that we were #1 on your greengrocers veg box list today! In such difficult times as these, it's important to reap joy from the little things...
