🌊 New study reveals that silica-rich diatoms, not coccolithophores, drive bright satellite signals south of the Great Calcite Belt in the Southern Ocean
Diatom frustules mimic calcite reflectance; reshaping how we interpret ocean colour, plankton biogeog and carbon export

New study illuminates how diatoms thrive in—and light up—the Southern Ocean
An area of the remote Southern Ocean that's long confused ocean color satellites by reflecting large amounts of turquoise-colored light appears to be full of silica-rich diatoms, according to a new st...

Another "it's all connected" when it comes to Earth systems: slow down circulation in one part of the ocean, reduce rainfall in other parts of the planet. 🧪🌊

A M8.8 earthquake just ruptured the subduction zone offshore Russia’s Kamchatka peninsula. This is one of the world’s truly huge earthquakes, and a triggered tsunami is currently traveling across the Pacific ocean.
This same fault ruptured on July 20th in a M7.4, and last August in a M7.1.

Giving bluesky a try! I'm Doms, a recent PhD graduate from the University of Toronto, and I'm currently a postdoc at the same uni; my dissertation focused on the response of coccolithophores to abrupt climate change in the past 😁
