Today M7.4 near Mexico resulting in a not a very big tsunami. However, once more shows that trapped waves could live in continental shelves for long time! @diegosismologo.bsky.social

Associate profesor in Physical Oceanography at the University of Iceland. Trying to understand through observations how mixing shapes the different properties of the water masses in the ocean through mesoscale processes.
Paper Alert! Very nice opportunity to work with them and highlight that not there are changes in the AMOC components and we should think on more long term observations.
Prof. Stefan Rahmstorf@rahmstorf.bsky.social · 4mo ago📣 Just out: our new study on the 'cold blob' in the Northern Atlantic. Is that due to ocean currents bringing less heat there, or due to more heat being lost through the sea surface? Our data analysis strongly suggests it's due to #AMOC slowing. 🌊 agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...
I bet there are lots of unanswered questions around here in Iceland and Njörðr (Norse god of the wind) has decided to answer all of them at the same time! Yellow and Orange warnings all over the country!
We are entering a new era for tsunami observations and model validation-- The SWOT era! Thanks a lot @baptistegomb.bsky.social for reaching out, this was a fun collaboration. Also great working with @diegosismologo.bsky.social and @valah.bsky.social. @haskoliislands.bsky.social
Baptiste Gombert@baptistegomb.bsky.social · last yr.Superb observation by the SWOT altimetry satellite of the July 30 #tsunami. Data acquired ~1h after the M8.8 Kamchatka earthquake show the waves propagating across the Pacific with a great agreement with @rocangel.bsky.social's model!

Tsunami resulting from a M 8.7 Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia. Preliminar solution from USGS and GeoClaw model. @haskoliislands.bsky.social
Full video of the tsunami in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Kamchatka, Russia, following the 8.7 earthquake. Wave seems incoming and a few meters at least.
Where the Wild Things Are in the Ocean! Spilhaus projection of Global vorticity derived from @copernicusmarine.bsky.social and lots of #nerdspace at @haskoliislands.bsky.social.
The Ocean around us (In Iceland) is boiling! This month (May 2025) has exceed the number of high intensity Marine Heat Waves, I guess the nice weather comes with some price, hopefully this is not boiling the fish in the nearby sea... @haskoliislands.bsky.social
Let's make my first post be a provocative one :) --my research life in a single picture.
