👋 I’m Sarah. I’m a post doc at The Lyell Centre at @heriotwattuni.bsky.social in Edinburgh, Scotland 🏴 where I work on coccolithophore physiology in the Icelandic Basin as part of the BioCarbon CHALKY project led by Prof Alex Poulton.
🌊 Today (10/10) is the first International Coccolithophore Day!
These microscopic algae build calcium shells, fuel ocean life, and regulate Earth’s carbon.

🌍💙 Happy International Coccolithophore Day! 💙🌍
Today, Oct 10, we celebrate tiny ocean builders that capture CO₂, shape marine ecosystems & keep our climate in balance.
When Cocco talks, climate walks.

Billions of microscopic artists create masterpieces that shape our #climate, feed #marine life, and record planetary history in their calcium armour.
Who are they? ⌛🌊

Microscopic, yet seen from space. Invisible, yet astronauts watch them glow.
Billions of tiny artists shape climate, feed the seas, and write history in calcium armor.
Meet them in 2 days.

First time back at Kings Building since undergrad, had to of course get a falafel wrap, which fuelled many a study session and still reminisced about amongst KB friends. Although the wrap stations had quite a makeover since then 🧆

Hi BlueSky! 👋 I’ve decided to make a concerted effort with my science social media as I was a big science twitter fan before, but I’ve struggled with getting into Bluesky in the same way - so I decided I will post every day in June to get back in the habit.
