3 year postdoc position in my institute for human geographers or related disciplines, working on governance of the Southern Ocean. Let me tell you, @hifmb.de is the loveliest work environment I can imagine in academia, I would really recommend it. jobs.awi.de/Vacancies/20...

Thrilled to have guests @susanneferwerda.bsky.social and @giuliachampion.bsky.social coming to Bremen for the discussion panel Anna Pasco Bolta and I have been putting together on ‘Seabed Imaginaries’ 🪸 We’re also very lucky to have the wonderful Kim Peters as moderator 🙏

I have a blog post up on the @hifmb.de website about the trip Kate Sammler and I took to the Austrian Alps and our ✨quest✨ to understand the geology of the ancient ocean crust as part of our (with Kim Peters) broader enquiry into access to the international seabed 🪨 🔗 hifmb.de/hiking-the-a...

At today's @hifmb.de seminar, @gerlienverhaegen.bsky.social points out that collecting squishy deep-sea jellyfish for scientific study is an artform - some disintegrate in daylight, most fall apart with nets.. scientists are lucky to get one or two individual samples from ROV dives.

This is supposed to be a work account but I’m transcribing interviews at the moment so as a content interlude: before and after firing pottery 🔥🏺chunky cat bowl edition

Started up the second half of my hyper-niche Deep Seabed Film Club last week - my extremely intellectual curatorial agenda is alternating between James Cameron docos and *not* James Cameron docos 😅🌊

A paper I've been working on for quite a while has just come out today in @natureandspace.bsky.social! It brings together chemical 'slipperiness' from chemical studies and geographies literature, and defines characteristics to clarify and operationalise slipperiness. doi.org/10.1177/2514...
