Another great week at the Climate and Cryosphere Open Science Conference in Wellington. Enjoyed facilitating the Paleoclimate sessions with three other ECRs & got some useful feedback on our work reconstructing oceanographic conditions in the Ross Sea during Pleistocene interglacials 🇦🇶 #NSFFunded

Excited that this paper, led by former PhD student Natalia Varela (based on her dissertation), is now out! We use the occurrence & characteristics of thin, silty turbidites from the Ross Sea to interpret Antarctic Bottom Water outflow since ~3.3 Ma. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

A great week in Wellington at the International Sedimentological Congress where I presented my Miocene record of bottom water changes at ODP Site 1123. I enjoyed learning about all of the research being done using sediments from around Aotearoa and connecting with researchers from NZ and overseas.

Great study that provides insight into ocean oxygenation during a past warm climate 🤩

Anya Hess@anya-hess.bsky.social · 7mo ago

🚨New paper out with @alexauderset.bsky.social! We show that the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) was better oxygenated during the warm Miocene Climate Optimum than today, but its path to full deoxygenation was slow and complex. Link to paper: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Check out our new paper, led by Molly Patterson at Binghamton University. We show that the marine-based West Antarctic Ice Sheet was sensitive to ice mass loss via ocean-driven melting during the warm Pliocene. 🇦🇶 #NSFFunded @binghamtonu.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We’ve wrapped up drilling at Crary Ice Rise with 228m of sediment core. This is an unprecedented record of the history of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet stretching back millions of years. Initial observations indicate the core includes periods of environmental change during past times of warming.

Great opportunity here to study the Earth system during the often overlooked early Miocene. Application details here!

Applications for Participation in IODP3 Expedition 505S are now open! Deadline January 23rd 2026 - lnkd.in/etiWvk2z If you are a researcher/science communicator interested in contributing to understanding an enigma in the early Miocene Earth system then please consider applying this expedition!

First NSF grant as a co-PI, very excited about this one! Will be working with colleagues to understand mechanisms of ice sheet growth during a past warm climate through a data-model comparison study. Ready more here! #NSFfunded www.binghamton.edu/news/story/5...
