Professor in paleoclimate and organic geochemistry, Durham University U.K. Current work includes climate archives from seabird vomit🤢 (she/her)
This #webinar, together with Ruza Ivanovic & Quentin Dalaiden, will explore methodological approaches—from embracing ambiguity in #modelling to integrating diverse evidence through data assimilation—to reconstruct the dynamical history of Earth's #climate. 👉Register here: egu.eu/7TNQPP
We look forward to welcoming the @erc.europa.eu Scientific Council to Durham next week and showcasing amazing research, like Professor @erinmcclimate.bsky.social's study on Antarctic snow petrels and sea ice evolution. Read more: bit.ly/4nde2gE @geogdurham.bsky.social @leverhulme.ac.uk @bas.ac.uk
Climate.gov, a major US government website supporting public education on climate science, will likely shut down after almost all of its staff were fired. What would be worse is if the website were co-opted to publish climate denial content.

Tiny animals with a huge impact.... total weight of krill in the world exceeds the total weight of humans or cows... and they play vital roles in ecosystems and climate. We need to know what fishing and climate change are doing to them! 🌊🧪🥼❄️ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
