Appreciate I did a pretty rubbish job of updating on @lmcwhin.bsky.social and I’s Svalbard WAVE project adventure to survey marine mammals in the Arctic with HX!
But I’ll make up for it with some snaps 📷 🐻❄️ 🐋 🦭

Starting my journey north towards the Arctic as part of the WAVE project (www.wave-arcticwhales.com) in a slightly crazy @edinburghairport.bsky.social (is half of Scotland here today?! 😂) attempting to teach myself to like matcha… 🍵 🍓 ✈️
Stay tuned for Arctic content!

Small reductions in the speed of commercial cargo vessels will immediately reduce noise impacts to marine mammals!
🚢⬇️🔊🐳🦭
20% slowdown = ⬇️ source level by 6 dB = ⬇️ area exposed to vessel noise by 75%!

It’s funny to think that past Charlotte (who was doing her undergrad thesis at @uofglasgow.bsky.social in 2014) would probably never have expected a very similar topic was going to become her literal job many years later… 😂🚢🔊🐬

Today’s activity: attempt to become a meteorologist and extract/decipher precipitation radar data… Can’t say my #MarineBiology / #MarineMammal job isn’t varied 😂🤔

Genuinely can’t use my laptop currently as it’s running both R and MATLAB simultaneously and sounds like it may take off at any minute… 😂👩🏼💻

Hi everyone!
I’m Dr Charlotte Findlay and I research #MarineMammals 🐋🦭 and the impacts to these species from exposure to human-made underwater noise with the goal of developing management solutions! 🚢🔊⬇️

🚨NEW PAPER! ⛵🏆🟰⬆️🛥️🟰⬆️🔊
International #sailing #regattas can attract large #spectator #flotillas composed of 100s of #boats!
We found these flotillas can increase #underwaternoise levels by up to 17 dB when race days were compared to non-race days!
