Sometimes I feel a little boring because I don’t travel so much these days. But there are some pretty spectacular adventures just 1.5 hours from #hobart … Images from a climb on the Candlestick, Tasman Peninsula. #climbing #tasmania

the last @beeraquatic.bsky.social of 2025 is this Thursday! We don't think too much about the Indian Ocean here in Hobart, but it wields an influence on our weather. Find out how from @imas-utas.bsky.social Dr Helen Phillips. 6:30pm Nov 27th, Hobart Brewing Coy. #utas #hobart_events #scicomm

Cat’s are b*stards; they puke on your carpet, wake you up at night, and then break your heart… Thanks so much Warren for all the purrs, the fluff and the many lessons. #adoptdontbuy #10liveshobart #cats

What's the future for Antarctic sea ice? Next Tuesday (11th November I'll be giving a free lunchtime talk at TMAG on @antarctic.bsky.social @imas-utas.bsky.social efforts to answer that very question. You can register here: url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/UVHnCE8kD7...

Dr Scott Spillias last night at @beeraquatic.bsky.social , on whether AI fish will save the fish or crush our futures (maybe both?). Assisted by some friendly (and not so friendly) AI bots #hobart #marinescience #imas_utas

Will AI save the oceans, or drown us in a sea of big data? Fish-modeller Dr Scott Spillias has views on this, and he's spilling all

tomorrow! Come for the beer; stay for the science. 6:30pm 28th August, Hobart Brewing Coy

Beaker Street is here in Hobart! Time to party with people who have access to liquid nitrogen and ideas on how to use it! I’ll be around a lot of events; no liquid nitrogen but stop and ask me about frozen seawater… @beeraquatic.bsky.social #hobart #beakerstreet @imas-utas.bsky.social

“Push it to the depths!” The very words I ride by… #MTB #tokyo

What's Antarctic sea ice ever done for us? Quite a lot! It cools the ocean, protects ice shelves, supports an irreplaceable ecosystem. Oh, and helps the ocean absorb $180 billion of carbon per year. Hopefully we can figure this out whilst there still is some summer sea ice...

Been in Cairns all week for the Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society conference. Great to catch up with colleagues old and new (and nicely-timed to avoid Hobart’s cold spell!) But I have never been to a conference with such a palpable sense of despair.

Autumn in Derby. Tassie is awful; don’t come here! #mtb #tasmania

Bittersweet moment for me on 27th March; after 7 years I’m stepping away from @beeraquatic.bsky.social and will be on stage not as MC but as a speaker! (Specifically I’ll be talking about the mystery of disappearing sea ice). Leaving Beer Aquatic to a new generation of enthusiastic sci comments!

I’ll be going back to my @beeraquatic.bsky.social roots this Thursday, MCing our first event of 2025. We’re starting with a bang - lots of bangs actually - as Dr Rebecca Carey talks about undersea volcanoes. 6:30pm 27th February, Hobart Brewing Company
