Very excited to announce that we are hiring for three faculty positions at @universityofleeds.bsky.social in @bioscienceleeds.bsky.social: A/Prof Plant Science, A/Prof Animal Biology and Lecturer in Ecology, Zoology, Biodiversity or Ecosystem Management. Please do get in touch to chat. Links below:

Really proud of @jysuarezibarra.bsky.social for his upcoming #MSCA research position with us @climatecerege.bsky.social. Not only a really exciting project to help us find out more about the climate system, but also an excellent career step for a superb young researcher.

In the latest @exoceanlab.bsky.social interview, Jaime shares how his project eCO₂-MorpH uses planktonic foraminifera to reconstruct past CO₂ and inform climate models.

Great idea. We should rescue all the papers and data. Universities should provide a place to publish them so they are accessible to anyone. 📝

Planktonic foraminifera Iodine/Calcium ratio: is it a proxy for dissolved oxygen in the ocean? Abstract. Direct observations indicate a declining trend in ocean oxygen concentrations, which is not quantitatively captured by models. The complexity of oxygenation variability, linked to both physi...

Morphological change.
Habitat shifts.
Speciation.

We need to track it all if we want robust boundary conditions for modeling past climates.

My project (eCO2-MorpH) integrates morphometrics, AI and geochemistry to refine Neogene CO₂ reconstructions.

Planktonic foraminifera record seawater chemistry (δ¹¹B → pH → atmospheric CO₂).

But evolution complicates the signal.

Four days later, I think I can finally process this:

I’ve been awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship (#MSCA -PF 2025).

17,066 applications this year. ~9.6% funded.

Still feels slightly unreal.
