🌍🔬 Microplastics are everywhere — from the ocean surface to the lower atmosphere and beyond. Measuring them? Complex. Challenging. Evolving. Join SOLAS Seminar XII 🗓 16 March 2026 | 🌐 Online ✨ Register now: zoom.us/meeting/regi... ℹ️ Details: solas-int.org/events/solas...

🧪🌊 GESAMP report on #microplastics transport into the marine environment is available online. library.wmo.int/records/item... @solas-ipo.bsky.social @usocb.bsky.social @geotraces.bsky.social

A new all-electric double-decker Climate Stripes bus has started taking passengers around Reading today. The bus shows the warming stripes for Reading back to the 1860s and will hopefully help start climate conversations amongst passengers. #ShowYourStripes

🧪📍🌊 🦑🍎 Ocean Exploration Trust is hiring independent contractors for at-sea positions of data engineers, video engineers, and ROV engineers for our 2026 expedition season aboard E/V Nautilus. More information at nautiluslive.org/about/employ.... Questions can be directed to [email protected].

It’s a mistake to believe that a lack of funding for science is somehow part of these revelations. To my understanding none of the researchers so far named in these files had particular difficulty in acquiring grants.

🌊 an opportunity to suggest endangered data, I would think

speaking of ... here is a great ring of phytoplankton off the coase of #NewZealand as seen by NASA's OCI instrument and its respective retrieval of chlorophyll concentration.

This is an excellent summary of where we are right now on detecting microplastics in tissues. This is a new field and methods are still in development. Communication of the science needs to reflect that.

I am calling for a complete and total boycott of the Mercator projection in all news stories about Greenland until every member of the American public has seen this

The three-year global temperature average has exceeded 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels for the first time on record. This isn’t a projection; it’s happening now. www.independent.co.uk/climate-chan...

Such sad news. She was a brilliant scientist, a great science communicator and a real enthusiast for what universities can achieve #EmmaJohnston www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12...

New Zealand just recorded its first-ever day of zero coal- or gas-fired electricity. In fact two days, 20 & 21 December. (Still some co-gen, about 1.8%.)

JOB ALERT! @vliz.be is recruiting a Data Engineer to work in a wide-ranging role to help coordinate global SOCAT activities. Full details: vliz.be/en/jobs/vliz...

I’m pleased to announce the support of @scor-int.bsky.social for this important international ocean microplastic data harmonization effort and am looking forward to our community effort over the next few years to develop best practices for data collection and reporting scor-int.org/group/174/ 🌊🧪

I know you all are running away from the US, but we don't see too many positions like this opening up, and Miami has a really nice group in the geo department. ⚒️ (unfortunately, not really relevant right now to non-US citizens with the H1B fees)

My take on the general idea of having for-profit companies involved in the field:

For more details, see my @carbonbrief.org article with Global Carbon Budget lead @pfriedling.bsky.social: www.carbonbrief.org/... And the new Global Carbon Budget paper: essd.copernicus.org/...

Two years ago today - 2C or not 2C, that is the question

🌊 oceanjobs

How much carbon budget do we have left if we want to stay below 1.5˚C? Just 2 more years at current rates. It is essentially impossible to avoid global temperature rise exceeding 1.5˚C. climatelabbook.substack.com/p/the-shrink...

Bad news for large natural carbon sinks: "Our findings suggest the potential for a similar response to climate change by woody aboveground biomass in moist tropical forests globally, which could culminate in a long-term switch from carbon sinks to carbon sources." www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New national climate plans have barely moved the needle on limiting global warming. Yet there is hope. According to UNEP's latest #EmissionsGap Report, accelerated adoption of renewable energy and falling costs mean we have the tools to cut emissions now: www.unep.org/news-and-sto...

I think this is one of my favourite colourful climate chart type things, because it depicts two things at once: - Things are going to get worse, no matter what - The degree to which they get worse depends on decisions made today theconversation.com/my-new-dark-... by @edhawkins.org

There has been a lot of recent interest in mitigating "super pollutants", short-lived climate pollutants like methane and refrigerants. We should cut emissions, but using them as carbon offsets risks breaking the math of net zero: www.theclimatebrink....

100 years of September sea surface temperature departures through this year. Check out how quickly some of the midlatitudes are warming! 🌊 Data from NOAA ERSSTv5 at doi.org/10.7289/V5T7...

Excuse you! If humans can reach net negative carbon emissions over the next few centuries, researchers suspect the Southern Ocean will “burp” built-up heat into the atmosphere. eos.org/research-spo...

Here's an awesome trick - measuring ocean acidity with sound. It's a bit of a gimmick since you really need to tune the instrument per site, but potentially may open a low-cost monitoring tool if developed further. 🧪🌊 Link: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

The rate at which the atmospheric concentration of CO2 is growing jumped to its highest level ever, in 2024 pretty bad shit!!!! wmo.int/sites/defaul...

Reminder to register!

The Labor govt's 2035 target of 62% reduction in net national GHG emissions below 2005 emissions levels is aligned with >2.4°C of warming (above pre-industrial levels) Not sure how destructive it'll be cos 2.4°C is BEYOND the range of this Climate Council infographic warning of appalling impacts
