My reel doesn't make justice to the breathtaking performance at the inaugural ceremony of the Pacific Islands Ocean Conference in Honiara, Solomon Islands. A real honor to be here... Listen 👂🏾

What are the emojis I need to follow Oceanography related accounts? Starters bundle or something 🙏🏾

People!! Let me know if you are going to the Ocean Science meeting 2026 I'm Glasgow... I need the motivation

I am the 20 something author on this one, but see those beautiful trajectories on Figure 4, mine, mine, mine ☺️

Hey, I can believe I haven't told you: we moved to Fiji because I now work at The Pacific Community youtu.be/-T7CTkuH5wg?...

Finally managed to click submit today, therefore I am back online! Hopefully I can manage a Mayorga Adame et al, 2024 paper 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🤷🏾‍♀️

"Pure greed, malice, (...) swagger" from Australia, Sweden and other "progressive climate villains" "claiming to be climate leaders" when "they're actually trying to make things worse"

Had a great time at the Australian Marine Science Association (AMSA) meeting in Hobart, Tasmania last week! The highlight was to hang out in person with my long term cyber-colleague @nvogtvincent.bsky.social! on an authentic bushwalk led by coral reef 🪸 connectivity legend Jeff Leis!

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #1,085,433!

Hey beautiful people: how long did it take you to write your fastest research paper📜?

Is everyone equally distracted by the Olympics or is it just me... Who now should work on the weekend 🤦🏾‍♀️

As of July 25, the Atlantic hurricane season is down to 400% of average activity for the date, as measured by Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) -- the anomaly peaked at 1100% of average on July 5. Climatologically, the steep uptick in activity is just 2-3 weeks away.

Exactly. This is the potent Ice-Albedo feedback proposed by James Croll in his 1865 work, “Climate and Time”, playing out before our eyes. 🧪 www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/62693

The climate crisis. Still a thing. In case you were wondering

Finally went to a Latinamerican shop, when paying the owner was "and for Mexicans we always have presents because we have all this spicy candy 🍭🍬 that no one wants to buy! 😅😂🤣 And proceeded to give me TWO Lucas muecas de 🍉. Made my day! Now kid has gotten into the challenge of eating one 👍🏾💪🏾👅🌶️🍬🇲🇽

I was starting to enjoy Instagram... Until I turned on the sound. If I do so I can only stand it for brief minutes... I guess is overstimulating 🤯😶‍🌫️🫥

Out of the 100% of your identity how much is taken up by "I am a scientist" and how many major partitions there are?

I just drop hubs in the airport for a 2 months Hawaii adventure sponsored by a crazy friend who is also looking for a job🤷🏾‍♀️So, single mom-ing, but starting with a 1 week holiday! It's going to be a blast! Or so I hope!

When @bsky.app comes up with an edit button 🔘 it become definitely superior than Twitter and then I may try and fix my spelling mistakes 😝

I have a workshop starting Tuesday, my presentation is on Wed, yet they asked to all presentations to be send on Sunday... Sunday is not a work day!!! I am so uninspired, why? O why?... Also my presentations can only be perfect acceptable on presentation day, never before!!!

Life is hard, and then you lose your wallet....

I recon I have let a ton of unnecessary, perhaps even baseless stress in, while in this Aussie adventure... I have tried many strategies and I guess that's how I stay afloat, but it could be so much better if I would manage my stress/worry better. It's true that a ton of crap has happened, but still

Do people who are not oceanographers know that elephant seals have been helping us collect temperature and salinity data in inhospitable areas of the ocean for the last 20 years?

Are you a UBC grad student interested in climate solutions? Applications are open for next year's Solutions Scholars Program, which provides a chance to work on projects related to either carbon offsets, AI, agricultural solutions or heatwaves. More here: climatesolutions.ubc.ca/solutions-sc...

The Atlantic hurricane season kicks off June 1 and NOAA predicts a busier-than-usual season. Overall, climate change isn't making hurricanes significantly more frequent: but it's making them a lot worse. Slower, stronger, intensifying faster and with a LOT more rain. www.noaa.gov/news-release...

I 💕 this rain pattern maps and need to internalize them, because I constantly need to look it up, particularly when I move continent... Tx stranger!

I think blue sky science exploration is a bit undervalued at my current job, so don't tell anyone but I was testing Microsoft Copilot by asking questions about quantum computing 😝

It's 11oC in Sydney, borderline too cold for my survival... Definitely 10+ degrees too cold for my thriving... And it's still autumn 🍂🍁 😔

Have you seen Climate Central's cool wind + solar tool? For any US state, you can create and download customized graphics showing this week's wind and solar energy production in MWH and in car miles / homes powered equivalent. weatherpower.climatecentral.org

Today I am wearing my black & golden scarf. Putting it on I remembered shopping for it in Zanzibar with my local Muslim friend who couldn't understand why I wanted black when I could wear every other color 😅 Asha Hamza I miss you & 💜 you, always!

Once again questioning the being an immigrant thing and worst the keep doing the science thing... 🥴

Is it just me who has the very strong impression that most Python codes I come across were not made in the simplest possible way? Perhaps simplicity doesn't rule efficiency in Phyton? 😶‍🌫️

World! See my new Australian hobby. My 1st and 2nd ever sourdough breads! Made last week. Forever thankful to Dr. Shein Keating who shared a part of his natural Sydney airborne starter Esme with care and bread 🍞 instructions!

The older I get, the less tolerant to hang about big egos...

Before the Ukraine war started I had some fate that humanity will decide to address the climate crisis as the priority it should be... Now with Palestine 💔😭

There should be a special place in heaven for those of us scientists, who struggle to meet basic needs but are stubborn enough to strive to change the 🌏 for the better...

Is it just me who wakes up in the middle of the night with brilliant ideas💡 to fix my python code? And not necessarily remember them next day...?

We are hosting a Symposium in Marine Connectivity at the Australian Marine Science Association (AMSA) conference 15-20 Sep 2024 in Hobart, AU. Submit your abstract by Mar 15th www.amsa2024.amsa.asn.au/conference-s...

Cool new article finding that most bottles arriving at remote Pitcairn were illegally dumped from ships (largely from China) rather than coming from land - the same as the W Indian Ocean. This source of marine pollution is rarely discussed but seems to be v important... doi.org/10.1016/j.ma...

📢Marine connectivity scientists! Our new *open access* paper explores connectivity variability between coral🪸reefs, with important implications for interpreting and modelling connectivity. Here's a 🧵 on why this really matters. [1/16] aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

"Instead of building seawalls and jetties, they've brought in sand, put in marsh plants and used artificial reefs...Working with the town, the University of Florida developed a master plan to manage the island's shoreline" *This* should be the narrative about higher ed. www.npr.org/2024/02/15/1...

Major opportunity: coming Monday 🇬🇧 will launch its 💷 60million grant programme to support Communities and NGOs. oceangrants.org.uk

How do we do the opposite? Local radio and TV stations? Universities media? There's a challenge for you!

Play this game in the replies: Today I am an oceanographer, but next time I would like to be a wildlife vet?

How on the planet can a state criminalize this?!

Evening joy - funders only presentation and discussion of world's most comprehensive philanthropic ocean funding trends report... As always, impressive to have so many funders in the (virtual) room. #OceanOptimism
