Thrilled to announce the opening of the Science Kitchen at University of Leicester. A multifaceted space for food-related scientific videos, demonstrations, talks, research and events. A great way to showcase science in the real world and encourage the next generation of scientists. /1

Took a step away from smaller scale results to remind myself of the ultimate motivation behind undertaking my PhD project. Great talk from Elisabeth Kubin (OGS) about the importance of a consistent and accessible global pH dataset to monitor ocean acidification. #EGU24

If you want to learn more about pH and other measurements in the coastal Amundsen Sea, head to The Southern Ocean Sea Ice and Ice Shelves session (OS1.6) this afternoon! Lots of exciting talks on the schedule ❄️🧊 UEA School of Environmental Sciences ARIES DTP Challenger Society International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration

Feeling very enriched at #EGU24 so far! Lots of sessions to attend with really exciting ocean science. I’ve also been enjoying the banana bread a bit too much (hence the fact I’d eaten some before I took a photo…) 🌊🍌 Challenger Society

Deadline soon ….

One of our seals is very busy and sends in great data along the shelf edge of the western Weddell Sea.
A hint of a tidal signal? 😲

Proud to share this new study led by Hayley Mcilwraith (Hayley McIlwraith) - PhD student with ourselves and UEA, which has found that the shape of microplastics influences their trapping in coastal habitats. Read the full story here: pml.ac.uk/News/Microplas…
