Teabag taste-off today, as I forgot to bring teabags from home like an idiot.

At least it’s not Lipton’s.

Very cool to be at @whoi.edu for a couple of weeks. Nice of them to make me feel welcome 😉

Probably the only person on this flight excited to see the Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone on the flight tracker.

Focusing on timescales shorter than a year, we show the shelf sea-level variability is wind-driven and that it indeed is directly affecting long-shore current variability. These longshore current changes are found on the outer-shelf and only impinge on the upper slope.

Study led by Dr Sam Diabaté: In this paper, we were interested in finding out whether the circulation changes recorded at various moorings on and around the Northwest European Shelf were related to the sea-level variability on the shelf.

WE ARE HIRING. Interested in ocean mixing? Come work with us in the ARIA-funded POLEMIX project to create and deploy a float-based mixing observing system in the subpolar North Atlantic. Applications here: jobs.soton.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx...

I’m a federal employee, a research meteorologist at a NOAA lab (OAR-NSSL). I still have my job tonight. Many of my NOAA colleagues and many more of my fellow civil servants don’t. I want to share what people like me do. Instead of doomscrolling, maybe we can learn what civil service looks like.

We have a new lodger. She’s a bit nervous but starting to come out of her shell.

Science friends in the U.S.: we have two months to make sure data, code, and websites are saved somewhere securely. This isn't going to be pretty.

I like compiling observational estimates of AMOC strength. I recently became interested in how well the Copernicus compilation of reanalysis was doing. Here is the Copernicus reanalysis in grey, RAPID in red, and @emmaworthington.bsky.social's in black marine.copernicus.eu/access-data/...

I changed my route to walk slightly this morning and came across this! wasnt expecting to learn about oceanic Rossby waves on my commute! My next task - to find more around the streets of Southampton 🌊

New postdoc opportunity to work with me at the University of Reading on the EPOC project (www.epoc-eu.org) to better understand how AMOC might change in the future. Closing date 16th November 23.

Please share if you think you know someone who may be interested!
