How did the mammoth steppe function and what did it mean for carbon storage? 🦣🌍🦠 Get the answer here: buzzsprout.com/1977380/134341… Another fantastic podcast episode by @sbcornish and the @OxPolar team

Snippet from the episode in which Dr Jeppe Kristensen tells about how plants trade carbon with nutrients in the soil. This is an important way in which carbon enters the ground...

The ice-age mammoth steppe ecosystem was surprisingly productive. You could sit on top of a hill, and overlook such a density of animals that it has been referred to as a "Serengeti of the North" It was a joy making this podcast! podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/car… open.spotify.com/episode/1krnOc…

Oula-Antti Labba spent much of his childhood in Finnish Sámiland helping his family with the traditional reindeer herding work. But this traditional livelihood is under dual threat: from climate change and industrialisation of Sámi lands. 1/

Hope you enjoy reading! This paper/PhD chapter was the most fun I've had doing science. With brilliant colleagues Helen Johnson, @RobbieMallett, @doerr_jakob, Yavor Kostov, Alice Richards

This is partly why we need insight from simple models like this one that aim to understand the underlying processes. Our approach could be applied to other areas of the Arctic too.

Why is it that under a warming climate, winter sea ice growth in the Arctic Ocean first rises and then falls? In this paper we tackle this question--with a focus on the Arctic Ocean's super-productive 'ice factories': the Kara and Laptev seas. 🧵❄️ nature.com/articles/s4146…
