Really proud of this new paper just out with talented collaborators @LilianLieber and @RolandLangrock! Fantastically fun fusion of technology & new techniques to track terns foraging amongst turbulence!

NEW PAPER🌊We quantified #seabird foraging associations with localised evolving #turbulence (boils & vortices) using #HMMs. @RolandLangrock @AlexNimmoSmith #Drones tracked #terns & surface flows using #MachineLearning & #PIV @royalsociety doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2… @BrydenCentre_EU

Researchers from @PlymUni @PlymouthMarine @thembauk have helped the BBC's Climate Editor @BBCJustinR tell the story of rising ocean temperatures and the impact they are having on species + ecosystems locally and globally. Listen to @mcollins_2 at 1:15 👉 bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

BBC Breakfast@BBCBreakfast

The oceans have hit their hottest ever recorded temperature as they soak up warmth from climate change, with dire implications for our planet's health. Climate Editor Justin Rowlatt had more details on #BBCBreakfast bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

Our next workshop takes us to the deep oceans where @jenny_gales will be getting our students hands on with how experts map and measure sea floor features. Did you know we have only mapped 20% of the global ocean? Discover submarine volcanoes, canyons, seamounts and more!

👇🏼really highlights the opportunity for more more wind generation in the south west - it’s not like the energy source was is short supply yesterday…

National Energy System Operator@neso_energy

On Thursday #wind generated 51.2% of British electricity, more than gas 22.5%, nuclear 14.7%, imports 4.9%, biomass 4.0%, hydro 1.8%, solar 0.6%, coal 0.1%, other 0.0% *excl. non-renewable distributed generation

@Sat_Oceans Ocean fronts are only one of a long list of small and large-scale convergent features … too many to squeeze into the video! But you’ll be relieved that “fronts” are in the abstract and open access paper!
