This iceberg was once the biggest in the world. Now it has just weeks left - BBC News A23a was once twice the size of Greater London but now its 40-year journey is coming to an end.

Lovely story on the BBC about iceberg a23a, which has given us decades of fun but is now nearing its end…

Really enjoyed talking with Mark Poynting about this one-time behemoth.

The cover of a February 2026 workshop report titled "Monitoring Environmental Impacts of mCDR Field Tests" from the German Marine Research Alliance (DAM) research mission, CDRmare. The top half features the mission's logo—a stylized blue and teal wave design—and text detailing the focus on "Marine carbon sinks in decarbonisation pathways." The center is dominated by a colorful, stylized cross-section illustration of a coastal environment demonstrating various marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR) technologies. This includes a ship dispersing minerals into the ocean surface, pipelines extending into deep seafloor rock formations, coastal mangrove restoration, and industrial facilities with direct air capture fans. Small figures of people stand on the shoreline near a coastal village, observing the integrated land-and-sea systems. The bottom footer displays logos of various German federal and state ministries providing funding, including the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space and the states of Bremen, Hamburg, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Lower Saxony, and Schleswig-Holstein. 🌊

A workshop report highlights challenges in measuring the environmental impacts of marine CO₂ removal (mCDR) field trials, stressing the need for reliable monitoring systems and international standards for responsible mCDR experiments.

I am running a Climate Dynamics reading group for UCI graduate students this Spring and would like to propose a list of accessible papers on "big ideas" in climate dynamics from the 21st Century, prioritizing primary sources over review papers.

Any suggestions of papers? (Self-promotion welcome!)
