Hey fluids friends, we're recruiting in my department this year!

💙💛 Warmest congratulations to Assistant Professors Mary O’Keeffe, Lucía Tiscornia, Kevin Daly and Graham Benham, who have each been awarded prestigious European Research Council (@erc.europa.eu) Starting Grants worth over €1.5m. www.ucd.ie/newsandopini...

Advertising this PhD student position once more (deadline 30 August) workingat.nioz.nl/o/phd-positi... We are looking for someone with a MSc in physical oceanography, fluid dynamics or physics to study how ocean eddies contribute to the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation

Stunning imagery of lightning within Hurricane Erin. Erin remains a powerful, major hurricane.

Check out this time-lapse video of waves eroding an ice front from an experiment conducted in our cryogenic wave tank at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The tank is housed in a walk-in freezer, and the waves are precisely controlled. This video captures about an hour of wave erosion.

It's even worse than removing the grant funding for university research (in groups like mine at UC Irvine). NOAA labs and cooperative institutes collect the climate data we use, develop the predictive weather and climate models, and train the students we hire. This demolishes U.S. climate research.

Any time a fluid under gravity has areas of differing density, it convects. We're used to thinking of this in terms of temperature -- "hot air rises" -- but temperature isn't the only source of convection. fyfluiddynamics.com/?p=23535

Critical yet often overlooked is that NOAA's Oceanic and Atmospheric Research maintains vital long-term monitoring programs like the CO₂ Keeling Curve that, while essential, often struggle for funding from agencies like NSF that prioritize hypothesis-driven research over sustained observation.

It's sad to see CIMES funding cut at Princeton. It has been an incredibly successful research program.

One of the most tedious parts of working life is people droning on in meetings and committees. But how do you stop them? Sam Howison has an answer.

We're advertising 2 fully-funded PhD positions in atmospheric science @exeter.ac.uk for entry in September 2025. Both are open to UK and international appliants. The first project is with me looking at Atmospheric heat transport across a range of planetary climates www.exeter.ac.uk/study/fundin...

Excited to share our new paper in @pnas.org doi.org/10.1073/pnas...! Ice cubes often appear cloudy because, as water freezes, air bubbles get trapped and scatter light. But how does freezing rate affect the shape of the bubbles?

Are you enthusiastic about interdisciplinary research at the interface of physics and biology, and using state-of-the-art experimental and theoretical tools to unravel the biophysical mechanisms of immune cell functioning? Then we might have an open PhD position for you! www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p...

I’ve been teaching our first-year undergrads this week about weather forecasting — how it is a tremendous, life-saving human achievement that is so important to modern society, underpinned by openness & a desire to cooperate… My thoughts are with everyone at NOAA/NWS who lost their job 😖

🚨 An exciting opportunity for a funded PhD studentship with me on immersed boundary method simulations for ice-ocean interfaces! 🧊 Please repost and share with students! Deadline is 31st March.

University College Dublin is seeking to recruit 50 early-career faculty through the Ad Astra Fellows programme: ucd.ie/adastrafello... Applications are now open for 10 positions in the College of Science: ucd.ie/adastrafello...
