The New World asked me to speak to some British trans women about what life has been like for them over the past few years - here's what they had to say, in their own words: www.thenewworld.co.uk/marie-le-con...
There is also a Discord. Very wholesome, early-internet vibes
Who else is coming to EGU this year? I think I sort of have to go...
your energy bills are rising because they're forcing you to use millions-years-old sunlight instead of today's
"Human Nature: Nine Ways to Feel About Our Changing Planet", a book by Kate Marvel
This book is so good that it made me cry on a train @drkatemarvel.bsky.social
Please email or DM with any questions, and tell all your friends etc 🤗
The Ice Modeller/Emulation Scientist (supervised by Rosie Williams) will run ice sheet simulations of Greenland glaciers and build an AI emulator to investigate tipping points: bas.ciphr-irecruit.com/Applicants/v...
The Greenland Ice/Ocean Modeller (supervised by me) will advance the @ukesm.bsky.social's representation of Greenland's meltwater release to the ocean, and study implications for the collapse of the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre: bas.ciphr-irecruit.com/applicants/v...
We are hiring two new postdocs in Greenland ocean and ice sheet modelling to join our team at @bas.ac.uk! Apply by 8 October:
In London, hate will never win.
To mark the 1st day of my 4th year without Alice I have an announcement:
I’ve joined up with a determined group of women working to change the narrative around trans people. Women standing in solidarity with our trans siblings.
Our first step is to ask cis women to read and sign our open letter ⬇️
This is one of the reasons why areas with lots of immigrants are more successful than ones without. Partly it's a self-fulfilling prophecy, of course - immigrants go where there's jobs and there are jobs in successful areas. But there is something else. There is a specific kind of energy which comes from a population which aspires, from people who want things badly enough to uproot their life and go somewhere else and damn well try to get it. People who move. People who have the gumption and the conviction and the basic inner disposition to get up and move and get what they want, knowing full well that many of their neighbours back home will resent them and many of the locals at their destination will reject them.
The news this week was upsetting on a personal level, and reading this by @iandunt.bsky.social was just what I needed 🇨🇦🇳🇿🇬🇧

If you stop observing the sea ice it stops declining, right?
Here I am - loudly, and clumsily, declaring support!
Thanks Carlos - do you know why people would review less post-pandemic? More time spent in unnecessary Zoom meetings, maybe?!
I've had 3 requests to review journal articles in the last week, which is not that unusual these days. Is this normal for a scientist approaching mid-career stage? Or is it a consequence of editors trying to have gender-balanced review panels in a field where women are underrepresented?
I am so proud that I understand this
I don't know what to say about NOAA except that my heart goes out to every single one of you who lost a job yesterday. Your work is appreciated all around the world, not just in the US. I hate living in a dystopia.
In case it needs to be said (and surely everyone reasonable already knows this), YOUR WORK IS IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST
It took me more than 10 years but today I was in a meeting of entirely female ice-ocean modellers (4) for what I believe is the first time
With all the senseless layoffs happening in the #US #science sector I hope we can try and help a little bit at least. If you're an ECR expert in sea-ice modeling our vacancy is open till 11th March. You will be welcome in NZ! 🧪 #academicsky @climate.noaa.gov
Climate scientist here, I heartily endorse this podcast episode!
For a topic so ripe with misinformation, it's refreshing to see a couple of non-experts get it completely right.
Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
🎉🎉🎉 Woo hoo! 🎉🎉🎉
Amazing feat by the Beyond EPICA-Oldest Ice team!

Smashing the 800,000 year record for a continuous ice core by a country mile back to 1.2 million years ago.
Me to my 3 year old:
Does anyone else remember "global warming stopped in 1998"?!
Let the world's largest iceberg inspire you: Even after spending months spinning in the same spot, you too can become unstuck.
A picture of the earth showing the pacific ocean. You can see hawaii and New Zealand. Also the edge of antarctica, australia, and north and south america...but barely.
It’s interesting that the emojis show the earth from three angles 🌎 🌍 🌏 but not the fourth.
Though 🔵 is a fair approximation of what it would look like.
People underestimate the Pacific.
declaring a conflict of interest: i hope we continue to not know stuff because otherwise I'd be out of a job
The image shows a side-by-side comparison of a Ford crossover and a Ford pickup truck, highlighting their height and length dimensions. The crossover is in silver, with specified measurements of 1.537 m in height and 4.186 m in length; the truck is black, and 1.961 m in height, and 5.89 m in length.
The best-selling motor vehicles in the US and UK for 2024 are both made by Ford, but that's where the similarity ends.
