I finally got around to adding a Bluesky profile link to my personal research website.

We have 15+ available graduate positions so far, find them here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I definitely understand the whole "only candidates who are selected to move on in the process will be contacted" thing. But if I have to make a government/state/provincial account to even submit an application, there should be a portal where I can check application status.

I’m talking to another person who was barred from the US Antarctic Program because they go to “mental health counseling” (thus, USAP doesn’t consider them “stable”). The NSF has done nothing—nada—to reform that program. My rage is incandescent. 🔥 If you’ve no idea what I’m talking about, a primer:

A few years ago we crowd-sourced a list of graduate fellowships in earth sciences. The spreadsheet hasn't been updated since 2022, but I imagine its still very relevant to many of you or your students: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Earth Science Fellowship Opportunities

Heads up my climate science colleagues, UW's Department of Atmospheric and Climate Science is looking for an assistant professor in atmospheric dynamics, including the study of weather and climate phenomena. Great department, great colleagues, great location. Info here! apply.interfolio.com/149349

The punchline: Ocean mixing was responsible for record-setting sea ice melt in the Barents Sea during a cyclone, but biases in ocean stratification limit CESM's ability to replicate the sea ice response to such events. 🌊

Excited to share a new paper that Ed Blanchard‐Wrigglesworth and I co-first-authored, along with collaborators Melinda Webster, Chris Horvat, Øyvind Foss, and CC Bitz: "Model Biases in Simulating Extreme Sea Ice Loss Associated With the Record January 2022 Arctic Cyclone" doi.org/10.1029/2024...

Model Biases in Simulating Extreme Sea Ice Loss Associated With the Record January 2022 Arctic Cyclone

An Argo float showed cooling and mixing in the Barents Sea during a record Arctic cyclone, accounting for the associated record sea ice loss A coupled GCM with winds nudged to observations shows ...

Me too, please 🙂 (I'm a polar physical oceanography postdoc)

I’ve been told that the more people like a feed, the more visible it is so please like the Oceanography feed even if you hate the ocean. 🌊🧪
