Thank you, it was pretty smooth and uneventful.... You should consider going to this meeting in 2027. It's pretty awesome!

Well that's a wrap of the Coastal Dynamics GRC for 2025. A great meeting and was so pleased to have the chance to hang out with awesome polar oceanographers Yoshi Nakamaya, Seth Danielson and Kiki Schulz! Until next time all...

So much potential for crowd-sourcing data! And so much fun dreaming up ways to get kids as excited about the ocean as we are with @rejectedbanana.bsky.social 🌊🧪

Partial solar eclipse over the UK now. Best seen through the cool glasses from the NASA booth I picked up at the last AGU Ocean Sciences meeting, but that was hard to photograph. Here's the shadows from my colander showing the crescent shadow instead 🧪

@zacklabe.com continuing to draw vital attention to the crazy warming of the Arctic.

Continuing this work in the face of uncertainty during these calamitous times is what fortitude is all about. Thank you for these great graphic tools.

Temperature anomalies by latitude band in February 2025. Pay close attention to the magnitude of this warmth in the #Arctic (x-axis). This is really jaw-dropping.

[Latitude = y-axis (not scaled by distance). Data from NASA GISS (GISTEMPv4) using a 1951-1980 climate baseline]

Your graphics are amazing @zacklabe.com! Never give up, your work is so very much appreciated. Also it's such a great example of how climate science is a global village when you consider the data sources you use.

Sigh 84% similarity score for a new manuscript submission. Can authors please stop just shopping their manuscripts around and properly reconsider why your study was rejected by a different journal. This just wastes everyone's time and doesn't advance science 🧪🌊

Yep, in the same position. Am gently reminding all authors who favour non-UNCLOS compliant placenames that they must indicate the recognised name is what most people use for the territories in question. Also, who wants to read a paper about the Gulf of America? Sounds like a non-place to me.....

Yueng Djern Lenn @yuengdl.bsky.social · Jan 23

The other half comes home and states "did I tell you my bottom friction is working?" Definitely in the category of things only oceanographers say to each other that can be easily misconstrued by others! 🧪🌊

Difficult times calls for ever more determination to celebrate joyful things. Like this spectacular wintry walk under some altocumulus clouds today!

I don't do watches anymore, sadly, as they weirdly irritate my wrists. Would have been all over this otherwise!

If you have an Apple watch and enjoy venturing into the sea, this would be seriously cool to try!

Kim Martini 🏳️‍🌈 @rejectedbanana.bsky.social · Nov 26

Just released! Our prototype app that turns your smartwatch into a smartsensor for marine science.

If you love a little DIY, fork our open source code and test our app on your Apple Watch. github.com/rejectedbana...

Not that into DIY? Beta begins testing soon....

Been on here for a while, but not been posting much anywhere. However it's exciting to see the community exploding now, though the reason for it is somewhat crushing.

Sweet weather-in-a-tank! Reminds me we need new tires for our setup. After a few years we found the tires shedding!

Yueng Djern Lenn @yuengdl.bsky.social · Sep 24

And it gives us a break from talking, and the drama and jeopardy of whether a demonstration will work is always exciting. I think students appreciate that we've tried to bring the subject to life. I certainly did as a student.
