Back in Villefranche! Reunited with our lovely hosts. First day plankton sampling today- wish us luck (or more specifically lots of radiolarians!)
The first paper from my student Simon Ring's PhD thesis is out now! He quantifies boron partitioning and isotope fractionation during adsorption onto different clay minerals.. refining the mechanisms for how it works and what it means for global B fluxes. doi.org/10.1016/j.gc...
🦖I'm readvertising a PhD project at Bristol applying B isotopes to Cretaceous Ocean Anoxic Events as part of the @petrarch-project.bsky.socialwww.bristol.ac.uk/media-librar... for details! RTs (or RBSs?) appreciated.
2nd PhD project within the Petrarch project still open- deadline 14th Feb.. come work within a lovely team to figure out how large igneous provinces and maybe the biological pump interacted to drive Cretaceous OAEs.. www.petrarch-project.science/join-us
🚨2 geochemistry positions 🚨 in beautiful St Andrews(1 postdoc, 1 lab tech) studying volcanic forcing of climate. FWIW I am definitely better at science & supervising than social media!👩🏻🔬 Deadline extended Jan 10. tinyurl.com/29c6ebxctinyurl.com/mpd7tphh
Apologies for copied Twitter handles that don't exist here (yet).. anyway, if you know of some talented MScs/BScs, tell them to come join our lovely department! 7/7
Application deadlines vary with each project. For those applying for the Bristol ones you need to select 'PhD Geology' when applying, and can copy the given PhD blurb in as the project description (silly centralised UoB application system makes little sense, sorry) 6/7
Fifth a fully-funded project with David Naafs here at UoB working on calibrating new molecular biomarker proxies for the climate www.bristol.ac.uk/media-librar...www.jbaronas.com) .. to name a few! 5/7
Fourth fully-funded for home students with David Evans at University of Southampton using cutting edge methods to figure out how foraminifera calcify www.southampton.ac.uk/study/postgr... 4/7
Third is a mainly modelling project NERC UK student project with Lewis Alcott, together with me, Cait Witkowski, Tim Lenton and Erik Sperling on what has been key to making Earth planet habitable bit.ly/HabitableBri... . . 3/7
