Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Always fun to join another UK Arctic Science Conference, this time at @northumbriauni.bsky.social, presenting initial stages of palaeo sea ice reconstruction, synthesis and mapping, within the @horizoneu.bsky.social project Past2Future - towards fully palaeo-informed climate projections.

Thank you all for attending BOGS 2025! We are a great community, and we look forward to many future successful meetings.

The poor "Sea Ice Index" nsidc.org/data/seaice_... 😢 See thread for more on this tragic data loss: bsky.app/profile/zack...

Last week I was at @noc.ac.uk for the first time since 2012(!) for a workshop on the contribution of Arctic Ocean science to the International Polar Year 2032/33. A great opportunity to help shape priorities for future research with a cross-section of polar ocean experts.

My photo of cotton grass at dawn on the Arctic Ocean coastline won the Canadian Permafrost Association photo competition! Thank you to everyone who voted :) www.instagram.com/p/DJB8SQqxmz...

A great kick off in Utrecht to my role within the new #HorizonEU #Past2Future project, working towards fully palaeo-informed future climate projections. I'm joining @durham-university.bsky.social as a research associate, focusing on Arctic and Antarctic sea ice reconstruction.

Sea ice in the Arctic and around Antarctica cool our climate, drive ocean circulation across the planet, and provide a unique habitat for polar ecosystems. Sea ice amounts have now fallen to their lowest since we started measuring them. This is not good. 🌊🥼❄️🧪 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Ancient Tree Rings Hold Clues to Volcanic Cooling Events In the frigid reaches of northern Norway, a curious phenomenon in tree rings is helping scientists uncover the climatic impact of distant volcanic eruptions from over a century ago. Researchers have discovered that unusually cold summers…

Yesterday I visited the Open University to share my #postdoc research on Arctic beaver range expansion and the knowledge exchange that was key to the work in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region. It was great to also continue #EngagedResearch discussions we started 9 years (!) ago.

@gmelodie.bsky.social delivered a great talk today at the Open University about her collaborative research as part of the Barin Project: www.aru.ac.uk/research/why...

November has observed some of the largest temperature trends in the #Arctic, especially over areas with decreasing sea ice cover. Arctic amplification is largest in the boreal fall. If you see red, that means it's warming. Data: @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social ERA5. More info: doi.org/10.1175/BAMS...

Just started a starter feed listing Arctic and Antarctic communicators already on Bluesky ...please let me know who else to add & apologies to all I've missed - just let me know and I'll sort it go.bsky.app/7RL1i9C

Had fun filming all things Arctic beaver range expansion and shrub dendrochronology for an upcoming documentary with CBC/PBS 🦫🪵 We had a beautiful day for it! ☀️

It's great being back in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region to continue BARIN beaver range expansion project surveying of dams and lodges, and working with Inuvialuit friends and colleagues again!

In November 2023, the Arctic was +5.1°C (+9.2°F) warmer than the average November of 1951-1980. Data source: ERA5 / Copernicus Climate Change Service 1/2 👇

Time to start processing the hundreds of beaver-browsed shrub samples from the Inuvialuit Settlement Region 🪵🪚👩🏼‍🔬🔬 Double-stained thin sections help clarify the growth rings by staining lignified cell walls red and cellulose blue🎨 #🌲💍 #dendro #treerings

Oh, nuts, I was wondering what the final estimates of the Canadian wildfire emissions would be. Turns out: “off the scale.”

Hello everyone! 👋 I'm a postdoc researching beaver range expansion in the shrub-tundra in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region in Arctic Canada. My work is part of the CINUK programme linking Inuit Nunangat, UK & Canada research on changing Arctic ecosystems & impacts to indigenous communities.
