In Durham for the next two days talking about Southern North Sea glaciation with a crack team of experts assembled by Dave Roberts of Durham University! Excited to share knowledge and latest findings on how the ice sheets evolved during the many phases of glaciation during the Quaternary.

📢 PhD opportunity at Newcastle University! 👉"Reconstructing past ice-sheet retreat and ice-ocean interactions from marine sediment cores". This project will use new marine sediment cores to constrain the timing and drivers of past ice-sheet retreat. More details: iapetus.ac.uk/studentships...

Incredible collection!

Buried beneath Storegga is an even larger submarine megaslide - the Stad Slide! Bridget Tiller’s new paper (the first of her PhD) reveals the vast extent of this slide, discusses its possible causes, and considers whether it could have caused a tsunami 🌊 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

PSA: a summary figure in a paper is worth a million billion gazillion words.

It’s #BlackHistoryMonth in the UK, so please afford me this statement: It’s apparently unprofessional to not wear *smart* clothes to a conference…but it’s completely professional to use the word “coloured” when referring to Black and brown people…

I, for one, welcome our red-breasted overlords

I'm in Ostende this week for #IKUWA8! Come see my poster. I'm also standing in for @hlsteyne.bsky.social speaking on the benefits of offshore development for palaeolandscapes research this afternoon in session D3, 16.00-18.15, room Atelier+1.

I think this might be my favourite yet...

Avoid plagiarism by performing your own research and reading around the background literature, such that you can write your own original sentences. #academicsky

Last year I spent a lot of time updating @frommers.com guidebook to #Iceland, which has just come out. Many, many thanks to my Icelandic friends who answered my random questions as they arose - I could not have done it without you. #TravelWriting

The all-too-familiar sight of my van in a Swiss garage...

No, I don't want to "quickly hop on a call with you". I want to bump into you at random on a rain-lashed heath, nod at you in silent mutual admiration as we watch a buzzard gliding smoothly over a dramatic chicane in the river, then get the fuck on with my day

Evolution (abridged)

Excited to be heading to York later for the @quaternaryra.bsky.social Sea Level and Coastal Change meeting tomorrow! Anyone around this evening and fancy a pint? Hit me up!

I wonder what a forested palaeolandscape would look like on seismic, whether you'd be able to see disturbance from roots... 🤔

Has anyone ever "scrubbed" sand waves off bathymetry data to give an average of the surface underneath? If so how please and thank you x

Once upon a time a bunch of farmers in the Middle East came to an agreement allowing some slinky local creatures to do pest control for their crop storage. Cut to 9,000 years later: Happy International Cat Day! icatcare.org/internationa...

It's international cat day and I miss my puss today more than ever.

Love this page and the beautiful art it shares

We all have that one friend who says "caw! caw!" and then snatches a hot dog off your plate and flies away

Happy weekend everyone. Tell your friends you love them.

Why do books nowadays all have crap monotonic spines? They don't stand out from each other and hardly scream "read me!"

You know when you're writing something technical and you write yourself into a corner you can't seem to get out of through rational explanation but are reluctant to go back and rewrite everything? Yeah, that

Just verified my age by providing a sound recording of me standing up from a seated position

Hi folks. I’m doing a panel. Hit me with your best networking tips for your academic career. Conference or meeting networking, professional networking - give me your best tips for ECRs and I’ll pass them forward for my panel!

Great paper on a formation that we still have a lot to learn about!

Only back here because I want to reconnect with my academic community and LinkedIn is a binfire of irrelevant suggested posts tooting AI's horn. HMU for sporadic posts about places that used to exist but are now hidden under the sea.

Telephone signal on English trains is whack

I've been away a while

Me: I have no money, could I lend a fiver for two days? Bank ah sorry we're skint too lol, here's the fiver but it'll cost you £20 and it'll help to guarantee you'll be broke again this time next month

That should now read Professor Bethan Davies 🥳
