🌊⚽ Coming to Ocean Sciences Meeting '26 in Glasgow and looking for some non-science fun? Then fill out this interest form for the second ever edition of OSM football*: forms.gle/GbjvxnhCBDVy... Everyone's welcome, and no firm commitment required (yet 👀) *soccer for my American friends #OSM26

Finally Bach decides to drop some new tracks, feels like it’s been 200 years since the last one

Another reminder that a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

“Essentially we are adding more carbon debt to our planetary credit card, leaving future generations with an unpayable liability.”

Our new 🌊 paper “Progressive oxygenation of the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre” is out @jgroceans.bsky.social (open access): agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/... We examined the breathing of one of the ocean’s lungs 🩺 and found some surprises Paper summary in schematic, more info ⬇️ 1/🧵

The subpolar North Atlantic is one region where the deep ocean is in direct contact with the atmosphere, making it a key site for ocean ventilation. Koelling et al., use a new data product to study North Atlantic ventilation in unprecedented detail 🌊 agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

The AI industry wants us to believe AI superintelligence is the real threat from generative AI. But that narrative was crafted to distract from the many ways genAI is being used to tear our societies apart, as we saw this week when a deepfake video rocked the Irish election. It must be reined in.

🌊 #Postdoc position available 📍 At WHOI with Dr. Le Bras Analyse data from moored oxygen as part of the Overturning and Horizontal circulation of the Subpolar North Atlantic Program (GOHSNAP). Requirements ✅ PhD in physical #oceanography To apply: whoi.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/WHOI-E...

This false assertion about the ocean producing 50% of the oxygen we breathe is so widespread that @jpgattuso.bsky.social @bopplaurent.bsky.social and others have written about it here.

We have a fully funded position for a PhD student to investigate the eddy exchange of lighter and denser waters in the Irminger Sea. workingat.nioz.nl/o/phd-positi...

Behind many scientists is a lifetime of invisible, unsustainable costs. From unpaid internships to underpaid postdocs, the economic toll of a STEM career is staggering—and it's pushing talent out. My new perspective explores this crisis. #STEM #AcademicBlueSky journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

🎙️ Dave Schlom, host of @npr.org's Blue Dot, chats with Scripps scientists Sophia Merrifield and Jamin Greenbaum about their research to understand our blue planet, and dives into Scripps history with Associate Director of Communications Rob Monroe. 🌊 Listen here! ⬇️ www.mynspr.org/show/blue-do...

Not much attention is paid to the economics of deep-sea mining. It’s taken for granted that, whatever the ecological harms may be, the business case is sound. Turns out that's not true. 🧪

Great opportunity for learning how to use Argo float data and/or meeting (and collaborating with) others that work with Argo!

🌊 Have you ever wanted to measure oxygen on moored platforms in the ocean? If so, do it right by following the protocols we developed by working with over 60 oxygen optodes in the sub polar North Atlantic. NSF-funded with the most amazing team of scientists 🤩 and led by wonderful Dr. Una Miller!

These nice people from University of Washington's College of the Environment will give you a LEGO Argo float. Go see them. 🌊 #AGU24

If you’re at #agu24 and interested in ocean oxygen, ventilation, or the subpolar North Atlantic circulation (or all of the above), come check out my talk! It’s tomorrow (Thursday) at 8.55am in session OS41B: eppro01.ativ.me/appinfo.php?...

Hobbes would like to remind everyone that it’s important to take breaks from work
