I’m a big beautiful science nerd researching how ocean currents are spinning off more extreme ocean storms and what that means for marine life. Many unknowns come with change, this is just one tiny detail, and everything is changing so fast. With stakes this high, no wonder we humans are divided.

When we use words, form policies, and take actions against others for the way the world is, we are thinking with our egos and acting on our resentments, instead of thinking with our love and acting on our compassion. The ocean humbles egos and heals resentments.

This is our final cruise of the C-Streams experiment to quantify nutrient and carbon fluxes in the Stream and understand their effect on downstream productivity and anthropogenic carbon uptake. @miamirosenstiel.bsky.social

Analysis of >400K ocean samples (1971–2020) shows C:N:P ratios are dynamic, not fixed, shaped by depth, time and (of course) human activity

@miamirosenstiel.bsky.social Just another Saturday morning exploring the ocean!

🌊 In the water and on the water. The ocean is VAST, more than twice the area of all the continents put together. Plus an astounding 4 km deep, more than 5 times the world’s tallest building. And still, we 8 billion humans are changing every interconnected corner of it.

Bottom trawling is horribly destructive to coastal ocean ecosystems, and deep-sea mining will do the same to the open ocean. #OceanFilm 🌊

All at sea again! How do we capture km-scale processes and approach within meters of a rocky sea wall at 200 m depth while swept along in the rushing Gulf Stream?

🌍 Science is global.

AGU is reaffirming its commitment to protecting the global scientific enterprise—because collaboration, openness, and shared knowledge are essential for solving the challenges of our time.

Mothers and grandmothers watch this! AI algorithms are gender and race bias. These are the waters our children are swimming in. Women and people of colour are constantly disappeared, objectified, and dumbed down by internet searches.

Sometimes all you need is take in the beauty of nature.

Some defiance for science! 🌊🌏🧪 @agu.org

We affirm our commitment to publishing evidence-based Earth and space sciences that is free from political interference

We will continue to foster a diverse, equitable, and inclusive scientific community because it improves the quality of science

To abandon reality and facts is to abandon freedom. If nothing is true then all is optics and the rich and power-hungry pay for the most blinding lights. Being deceived is not an excuse. Timothy Synder, On Tyranny.

A true patriot has universal values by which we judge a nation, wishing it to do better. Patriotism is concerned with the real world and asks us to be our best selves. Timothy Synder, On Tyranny.

Nationalism (fascism) is to be against others, it is relativist. The only truth in nationalism is the resentment we feel when we contemplate others. A nationalist encourages us to be our worst and then tells us we are the best. Timothy Synder, On Tyranny.

We people have become subjects of the corporate oligarchy. Our public mission—how we stand up for the one another as Americans—has been derided and eroded for decades and is now being fully canned.

Writing your first science paper? Wondering where to start? Write an abstract first to troubleshoot and refine the research question, your main results, and conclusions. @jgroceans.bsky.social @agu.org
