🌊 How do we collect sea ice to measure tor trace elements and isotopes? You need a big drill to collect the core and then a lot of patience to shave down the outsides with a ceramic blade…to get clean ice to melt and analyze. Dr. Tia Anderlini on the trigger here.

friends doing awesome new research 🧐 👊✊😀

🌊 We never did find the mooring we were looking to recover here off the western edge of central 🇬🇱 Greenland. The bergs probably took it…but it was a beautiful spot to look. Summer 2024

I met my partner at a #Halloween party 29 years ago. I didn’t want to go to the party and I wouldn’t have gone except for the dogged determination of my housemate @martinebotany.bsky.social who made me get a costume and get out the door with him…thanks Chris

🌊🧪 There are 6 x 10^23 atoms in a mole. One mole of any element has a weight in grams equal to the atomic weight of the element. Thus a mole of C weighs 12 g; a mole of Si, 28g; and a mole of H, 1 g. - Broecker and Peng (1982), Tracers in the Sea

Our best strategy for assessing the efficacy of ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) involves running computationally expensive climate models. Here, we developed a statistical technique that encapsulates the climatic response to OAE interventions, simplifying the OAE carbon accounting problem. 🌊🧪

Absolutely, I slept through it too, but @schoolshake.bsky.social picked it up.

When #seismology meets #meteorology! Ground shaking across #VancouverIsland is ramping up (but not felt) as the remnants of Tyhpoon Nakri approach the west coast. The ground shaking started increasing just after midnight Pacific time (07:00 UTC on this figure) Oct. 17, as the storm gets closer. ⚒️🧪🌀🇨🇦

'Sekiyado' - Takahashi Hiroaki, 1927. #JapaneseArt #shinhanga

Right on schedule! More than 10,000 tiny tremors (not felt) have rolled through #PugetSound and southern #VancouverIsland over the past 30 days. This is Episodic Tremor and Slip (ETS) and occurs here every 12-16 months: www.earthquakescanada.nrcan.gc.ca/pprs-pprp/pu... Also - it is #ShakeOut day! ⚒️🧪

Are you ready for the #ShakeOut drill tomorrow (10:16 a.m. Oct. 16th)? Do you want to learn more about #earthquakes and #tsunamis? Bring your questions and join us this evening at 7 p.m. PT for our free Webinar and Q+A session. Register: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi... @shakeoutbc.bsky.social ⚒️🧪🇨🇦

We're used to seeing waves in the ocean...but waves in the clouds? A rare cloud formation called Kevin-Helholtz clouds was visible over Victoria's Inner Harbour yesterday, and @seos-uvic.bsky.social professor Adam Monahan has the scientific explanation: www.vancouverisawesome.com/bc-news/rare...
