Coming to the end of an incredible 4 weeks in Happy Valley-Goose Bay for the #MPhase measurement campaign, where I’ve been taking #aerosol samples on the @faam146 aircraft. This project is part of @CloudSenseNERC, aiming to reduce uncertainty in climate sensitivity.

Come along next week to hear me give a tipsy talk about some cool science pintofscience.co.uk/events/leeds @pintofscience #pint24

Being in the Lake District meant we had a great backdrop for our own explainer on the recent monster weather system that deluged the UAE recently. Great work @joerobinson00 @Polly__Foster plus a great animation from @simon_sat too! @universityofleeds/video/7359583554826685729" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tiktok.com/@universityofl… #DubaiFlooding

Poster presenting at the @CloudSenseNERC annual science meeting, as part of the #MPhase Team @EnvLeeds @ICASLeeds

Collecting #aerosol samples today to compare two different samplers for ice-nucleating particle analysis, outside the School of Earth and Environment @EnvLeeds!

Proud to be one of the winners of the @AerosolSociety Doctoral Student Award!

Apply now for a funded PhD with the @EPSRC #CDT in #AerosolScience. If you aspire to work in multidisciplinary teams and have an academic background in physical, environmental, health sciences or engineering we want to hear from you! aerosol-cdt.ac.uk/2023-projects/ #phdstudentship

A team of scientists have embarked on a flight campaign over the Labrador Sea to study how clouds form and develop in cold air. The four-week campaign with @FAAM146 will look specifically at clouds that contain both ice and water particles. ncas.ac.uk/flight-campaig…

The Leeds #MPhase team depart, next stop Halifax (not the Yorkshire one) and then another 2 hrs north to the town they call Happy Valley. The @faam146 en-route (overnighted in Azores).
