Smooth Classic sounds like a commercial radio station, the Irish breakfast tea is definitely sounding more enticing!

It’s Ireland vs England in the battle of the breakfast teabags.

Teabag taste-off today, as I forgot to bring teabags from home like an idiot.

At least it’s not Lipton’s.

Probably the only person on this flight excited to see the Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone on the flight tracker.

Focusing on timescales shorter than a year, we show the shelf sea-level variability is wind-driven and that it indeed is directly affecting long-shore current variability. These longshore current changes are found on the outer-shelf and only impinge on the upper slope.

Study led by Dr Sam DiabatΓ©: In this paper, we were interested in finding out whether the circulation changes recorded at various moorings on and around the Northwest European Shelf were related to the sea-level variability on the shelf.

WE ARE HIRING. Interested in ocean mixing? Come work with us in the ARIA-funded POLEMIX project to create and deploy a float-based mixing observing system in the subpolar North Atlantic. Applications here: jobs.soton.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx...

I’m a federal employee, a research meteorologist at a NOAA lab (OAR-NSSL). I still have my job tonight. Many of my NOAA colleagues and many more of my fellow civil servants don’t. I want to share what people like me do. Instead of doomscrolling, maybe we can learn what civil service looks like.

Science friends in the U.S.: we have two months to make sure data, code, and websites are saved somewhere securely. This isn't going to be pretty.

Was thinking this straight away, after the β€œWTF America?”

PCloud is pretty good. Time to start downloading as much NOAA data as I can.

I like compiling observational estimates of AMOC strength. I recently became interested in how well the Copernicus compilation of reanalysis was doing. Here is the Copernicus reanalysis in grey, RAPID in red, and @emmaworthington.bsky.social's in black marine.copernicus.eu/access-data/...

A plaque in the pavement in Southampton with text reading "until recently we couldn't even see oceanic Rossby waves. Only when we tracked them by satellite could we confirm the existence of these mysterious waves, which are thought to be capable of steering ocean currents and affecting how the oceans respond to climate change" Paolo Cipollini National Oceanography Centre 2006

I changed my route to walk slightly this morning and came across this! wasnt expecting to learn about oceanic Rossby waves on my commute! My next task - to find more around the streets of Southampton 🌊
