- Reposted by blueicedudeWhat’s it like doing fieldwork in Antarctica? 🥶 Sarah Shackleton and @blueicedude.bsky.social from @princeton.edu can answer that. They just found a 6-million-year-old ice core—a key piece to improve our current climate models! My story for @eos.org eos.org/articles/new...

- ⛺️ up! Drill down! Just another day in paradise looking for Earth’s oldest ice.

- To be fair trilobites were around a lot longer than humans (250 million years give or take) and were wiped out in the by a great global catastrophe than has some parallels to anthropogenic climate change. They also preserve 😍 fossils. Not so niche to me!

- Do this especially if you’re at a place that can nominally afford to invest in creative folks with big ideas. Most academic institutions have a balancing act that doesn’t give a ton of flexibility on hiring (ie we have classes to teach), but some do! They should do better!
- To all your ECRs out there….those who don’t do write reviews! Be a doer. 🧪!

- Sad to not be down in 🇦🇶 with @coldex.bsky.social drilling Earth's oldest ice, enjoying ⛺ life and the 😍 scenery. Congrats team!
- Personally I have never found the ‘tipping point’ framework helpful for thinking about climate change or how society responds to it. Bob’s paper on this is illuminating.
- In a new interdisciplinary Nature Climate Change Perspective paper, led by me, @lisgilmore and Rachael Shwom, we offer a critical perspective on #climate and social “tipping points.” 🎁: rdcu.be/d2gBC 🧵
- Reposted by blueicedudeHappy Isotope Day everyone! 🥳On this day in 1913 Nature published Federick Soddy's paper "Intra-atomic Charge" www.nature.com/articles/092... in which he introduced the term "isotope" (coined after a dinner conversation in Glasgow with Margaret Todd the classics scholar). how will you celebrate?🧪⚒️🌊

- Nice concept, but in my experience many reviewers love to act as gate keepers to the field and will happily reject things that disagree with their prior work. They are definitely not ‘just happy to have their work read’.
- That 🧲 better be ready to separate some Ca isotopes!
