🥰🥶Every contribution by thousands of participants with @fjordphyto.bsky.social science boat in Antarctica added up to so much more than my own PhD thesis. I’m amazed and in awe at the movement and enthusiasm. Let’s keep it rolling 🥶
What began as a student project in 2016 from @scrippsocean.bsky.social alumna Allison Cusick has developed into a NASA-funded program (@fjordphyto.bsky.social) that trains tour vessel operators and “citizen scientists” to collect samples of phytoplankton in Antarctica. 🧊➡️ bit.ly/4gmsX3e

@fjordphyto.bsky.social had a blast being a “scientist” with you on Viking Octantis. Keep up the good work! Hopefully, the new net arrives soon.

Science takes time - a lot of time. Time that is more and more difficult to make available because of increased workloads. Time that exceeds the temporary contracts of postdocs and PhDs.
I'll illustrate this using our paper published in Nature yesterday. 🧵 (1/x)
