Unabashed team promotion for #osm26 in Glasgow. Come along to the fantastic talks and posters by my colleagues and also come and see me show off some maths on mixing in ocean models!

Savoring a big win with an amazing team of aussie and international ocean scientists. Look out for the upcoming ARC CoE for Our Future Oceans. Very excited to be a programme lead on this and to help ensure it has lasting benefits for the entire oceans community. www.arc.gov.au/news-publica...

Not every day we get 35 x 10⁶ AUD for ocean research. rms.arc.gov.au/RMS/Report/D... Excellent job from Our Future Oceans team! 🌊 Congrats @profmattengland.bsky.social, @adele-morrison.bsky.social, @andyhogg.bsky.social, @janzika.bsky.social, @nicolamaher.bsky.social and many more!!!

Paper just out in AI4Earth led by the incredible @eveapiedagnel.bsky.social. We show how to exploit the ocean’s tight T-S relationship at constant pressure to map trends in salinity from sparse data doi.org/10.1175/AIES.... GMM works well because the relationships are so linear, but why are they?

If anyone is at BACO25 looking for the room where a certain someone might be talking this morning 👀…it’s M211 - go right at the top of the escalator as you reach level 2. 🙂
Very proud of our student Josef (Joey) Bisits. My first time in JFM. It turns out you can have a stratified water column, mix it a little, and it becomes unstable. Fluid dynamics is fun!!!
🚨New Paper! Led by Joey Bisits, with @janzika.bsky.social, we explore the drivers of cabelling instability in the ocean using a first-of-its-kind turbulence-resolving simulation. See here for energy budgets, diffusion calcs and pretty pictures using Oceananigans: doi.org/10.1017/jfm....
Seems everyone has arrived at BlueSky! I am taking some holidays till January but looking forward to communicating with you all more on the platform about climate/ocean/fluids/data in the NY! 🥳😎🎄
As far as I know this isn’t an early April fools joke. I’m excited to try to get back to Scotland - though less excited to be there in February
Just submitted an ARC DP EoI. 2 improvements in addition to 2 stages imho: 1. CV section is shorter (in one bit 5pages is swapped with 1500chars!) 2. Project partners only need to prepare a 1 page CV. I am now no longer embarrassed to ask international partners to do the paperwork for a full ‘ROPE’.
What is your niceness limit? I just got requests from a PhD program to give a reference for a student who took a graduate class of mine 2 years ago. No warning from them. I only have their old student email which bounces. I’d like to think I’m a nice guy but…
Really proud of this work, which went from an idea back in August 2022, to a published piece this week! With co-authors Damien Irving, @janzika.bsky.social, and Jonathan Gregory, we explored the reduced impact of aerosols on our climate system: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...
Anthropogenic Aerosols Offsetting Ocean Warming Less Efficiently Since the 1980s
Since 1980, aerosol-driven ocean cooling has decelerated substantially, alongside a drop in ocean heat uptake efficiency The drop in ocean heat uptake efficiency is limited to the tropics, which ...
