I will forever be haunted by this footage.
Trawling has only been filmed underwater a few times in documentary history, and never with such clarity.
What’s so heart-rending about these shots is watching how the animals don’t just get swept up — they swim for their lives.

Icebergs? The size of a city? 90 miles from the UK? Must be a joke, right?
No! Our new paper in @natcomms.nature.com shows massive tabular icebergs broke off the UK in the last ice age before the UK’s ice shelves disintegrated from climate warming.

Change in iceberg calving behavior preceded North Sea ice shelf disintegration during the last deglaciation - Nature Communications
Massive tabular icebergs broke off of the UK during the last ice age. The widespread break-up of the ice shelves which produced these giant icebergs can be traced to around 18,000 years ago, and likel...

This is great, I would have loved to take this! I hope it will involve the whole Earth system, not just ecology. If 16 yr olds leave with the idea that it's all connected in one beautiful complex web – biosphere, atmosphere, oceans, climate – it will have done a great service.
