Are you interested in unravelling the missing links in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and its links to the Earth's climate system? 'cause so are we! Come do a #PhD with us at National Oceanography Centre w/ Prof Eleanor Frajka-Williams Ruza Ivanovic @BenMoat1 SENSE Earth Observation CDT Links for applications in comments👇


I am excited to share a new study led by Shachar Givon & samina matan w/ Ohad Ben Shahar: Goldfish can learn to navigate a small robotic vehicle on land. We trained goldfish to drive a wheeled platform that reacts to the fish’s movement (authors.elsevier.com/a/1eEnubrwfBCwg).




This is Arctic Ocean with eddies as simulated by #FESOM2 ocean model. Come to do your PhD with us to help parameterise effects of those eddies in climate simulations (PhD position)! BTW it's 100% salary. Deadline 21.02. Please distribute! recruitingapp-5442.de.umantis.com/Vacancies/999/…

Take a look at our new ESA Earth Observation animation on sea Level Rise developed by ESA Climate Office to show how Climate Change Initiative data contribute to the big picture youtube.com/embed/Sf1FPiWa…


Ahoi!The #trrSONETT expedition started yesterday the sail on RV METEOR with 25 scientists and students on board. It is a key part of the ocean observations in the second phase of our TRR. We wish:Mast-und Schotbruch😇🙏🚢 CEN Uni Hamburg @cenunihh.bsky.social @marum_de Leibniz_IOW @[email protected]

There is a postdoc position in our project at University Bremen @marum_de in project W2 “Scattering and Refraction of Low-Mode Internal Tides by Interaction with Mesoscale Eddies”📝🤓. For more information: trr-energytransfers.de/jobs CEN Uni Hamburg @cenunihh.bsky.social AWI Medien Leibniz_IOW


10, 9, 8, ...3, 2, 1! Revealing the 1st image of the black hole in the center of our Galaxy by Event Horizon 'Scope! Epic zoom into the dark heart of the Milky Way using radio light.
