Yesterday's sea surface temperature in western Mediterranean Sea, lots of clouds lately but this image isn't bad. Some persistent features (those warm patches in the south) difficult to get in #DINEOF (I mean it works great but there's always a limit! 😅). Check for yourself: www.dineof.uliege.be 🌊🧪

Please join this town hall at the Ocean Sciences Meeting in Glasgow that @gmacgilchrist.bsky.social and I are convening, moderated by @helenczerski.bsky.social. We'll discuss what's happening to ocean sciences and what institutions and individuals can do. agu.confex.com/agu/osm26/me... #OSM26

This is always funny to see: time of abstract submission to the Liège Colloquium. I am not the only one submitting my abstracts really close to the deadline 😂. In any case, we have extended a few days, so you still have time to push that Y-axis up! New deadline 16 February 2026 #LiegeOcean26 🌊🧪

Following some requests, we have extended the deadline for submitting your abstracts to the Liège Colloquium #LiegeOcean26 until 16 February. This is the last chance!! 🌊🧪 Lots of great abstracts received so far, it is going to be a great edition!

Summertime is very productive in the #RossSea along the Antarctic coast. This enhanced view shows the #phytoplankton blooming there on January 25, 2026. A larger version of the image showing more of the sea + McMurdo Sound & Ross Island is available here: drive.google.com/file/d/1xLOb... #Landsat8

These trainings are great to step up your knowledge of ocean satellite data and to help you in developing your ideas on how to use these data for your research. It's fully online so it's easier to make it fit your schedule 🌊🧪

Very cloudy days in the western Mediterranean Sea, but on yesterday's image there was this small cold patch in the Rhone plume. So I went up and check #Sentinel3 temperature and chlorophyll, and the plume is really nice and sharp, high contrast with surrounding waters 😀🌊

Just a few days more to submit your abstracts to the Liege Colloquium on Submesoscale processes! #LiegeOcean26 🌊🧪🌀 www.ocean-colloquium.uliege.be

It always feels good to celebrate the #CTDAppreciationDay 🌊🧪 (it's the white tube to the left in the rosette, the grey ones are Niskin bottles), here during our 2025 field work with @universitedeliege.bsky.social students, on-board the Simon Stevin, from @vliz.be. Muddy North Sea waters!! 😅

Apparently it's #CTDAppreciationDay again. Please check out the most important tool in oceanography. 🌊

🌊 Happy #CTDAppreciationday to all you who celebrate!!!

🤩 Auroras lit up the sky last night. This was the result of an X1.9-class solar flare ☀️ Here are photos taken by our colleagues. Did you see them too? More information here: www.sidc.be/index.ph... Photos - 1: Jennifer O’Hara, 2: @seismotom.bsky.social, 3: Santiago Andres Triana

NCAR is quite literally our global mothership. Everyone who works in climate and weather has passed through its doors and benefited from its incredible resources. Dismantling NCAR is like taking a sledgehammer to the keystone holding up our scientific understanding of the planet. Unbelievable.

L2A artifacts 😊

Your pretty picture of the day 😀 🌊with of course many interesting processes! Water rich in suspended sediments is moved around by ocean currents in the Bay of Biscay. I'm curious about the long-range waves seen in the dark region, can't decide if these are oceanic, atmospheric, or an artifact 😅

Another insane move from the Trump regime. One of NCAR's contributions to climate science is the development of the Community Earth System Model (CESM), which is used by researchers worldwide. Here's a simulation of air-sea CO₂ fluxes from CESM.

well, the little eddy north of Mallorca is still going strong after 2 weeks 🌊

Don’t miss the final CLIVAR webinars of 2025 as we wrap up the year! Dec 10: "Ocean-atmosphere coupled model development(...)" with Jing-Jia Luo (07:00 UTC) Dec 11: "When internal variability meets climate change(...)" with Thibault Guinaldo (14:00 UTC) Check the full details 👇

📢🌊🛰️ Call for abstracts #EGU26! OS4.2 Ocean Remote Sensing www.egu26.eu/session/56253 📆Deadline 15 January 2026 (1 December for travel grant applications) @aida-alvera.bsky.social @craig-donlon.bsky.social @ghrsst.bsky.social @icatmar.bsky.social

We have launched the call for abstracts for the 2026 Liège Colloquium on Submesoscale processes! #LiegeOcean26 Please submit your abstract at www.ocean-colloquium.uliege.be Deadline 31 January 2026! 🌊🧪

Sea Surface Temperature in the western Mediterranean Sea, with a nice little warm eddy 🌀 north of Mallorca. It's been there for a couple of days, though it is dissipating quickly it seems. #DINEOF 🌊

Awesome picture! We have seen this at submesoscale features, where currents couple strongly to the short (and steep) waves as they travel at comparable speeds, leading to enhanced breaking depending on the orientation of the waves/currents. Here's a photo off the coast of California showing this.

Here's a view by #Sentinel-2 of the Rhone river plume within the Gulf of Lion waters. Other the change in water colour, and the strong front between the two water masses, I love how there are more wind-induced whitecaps in the bluer waters, although I do not have a direct explanation about it... 🧐🌊

Morning bike commute during fall is so beautiful 🍂🍃. It's also a bit of "find your way" 😄, the path is less visible by the day (there's supposedly a concrete path there)

ok, this is maybe a long shot, but anyone here using GPS tags (the ones you can put in luggage etc) for self-built surface drifters? 🌊 So far we've used raspberry-pi with a GPS module, but we have lots of connection problems, so we're looking to simplify this....

Oh, and now a circumzenital arc, combined with some thin cirrus #clouds... sky today is gorgeous 😍

A quite strong Sun hallo right now 🤩. I'd say there's a second line between the sun doing and the sun that I am not sure what it is 🤔

📣 🌊 Call for abstracts #EGU26 !!! Please consider our session: ITS1.9/OS4.1 Machine Learning for Ocean Science meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU26/abstra... Deadline 15 January 2026 (1 December for travel grant applications) @brajard.bsky.social @rachelfurner.bsky.social @redouanelg.bsky.social

Spooky story about NASA GSFC - story about destruction of NASA's center that is happening under the shadow of the shutdown. www.space.com/space-explor...

There are more than 100 marine research institutions in the United States and they’re under threat from Trump’s attack on science funding. 🌊

Alboran Sea surface temperature still looking great 🌊

Each day is different here, sunny day ahead, with some fog around Calvi this morning #STARESO

Now that it is raining I have time to complain about the difficulties with the Aanderaa software, such a pain. You need a windows computer, but windows 11 doesn't work. I found an older version, but still no luck, connection errors, how are we supposed to work with this software?.... 🌊

This little one wanted to hitch a ride 😄🌊🐙

We got two ADCPs deployed today in the Bay of Calvi, thanks to the help of the great #STARESO staff 🙏🌊. Now let's wait for the data!

Insane. This is Hurricane #Melissa seen right near landfall by the Copernicus / @esa.int Sentinel-2C satellite. It looks so beautiful, and it's hard to comprehend how much destruction a hurricane like this can cause. Best wishes to everyone in Jamaica.

The bay of Follonica, in Italy, always displays great patterns when waters rich in suspended sediments enter the bay 🤩. This time, with high winds in the western part of the image, which I guess play a role in the patterns within the bay 🌊 #sentinel2

#Melissa has become a Category 4 Hurricane. Its eye feature is clearly visible with infrared satellite and rain radar. Jamaica: Seek shelter now.
