Our new paper examines how Pilbara mammal occurrence varies with fire history. Most species are negatively correlated with fire frequency and some are positively correlated with long-unburnt habitat and pyrodiversity. With old mate @BiodiversityGuy fireecology.springeropen.com…

☁️ New study on marine cloud brightening out in @NatureClimate ☁️
Regional marine cloud brightening (MCB) in the North Pacific reduces extreme heat over the Western U.S. under present-day conditions but becomes ineffective under mid-century warming.

Research by Sara Swaminathan, an EES Ph.D. student, published in @ScienceAdvances sheds light on the impacts of stony coral tissue loss disease in the Caribbean. Learn how this is reshaping coral reefs and threatening marine biodiversity @UFcoastal

If you are EGU24 in Vienna this year come past and say hi! I will be in Hall X5 | X5.182 from 16:15 - 18:00 and looking forward to talking about coral reconstructions and the Indian Ocean!
First #spp2299 appearance is @JAnn_Hargreaves with a poster on a coral reconstruction from #Mauritius
You can find Jess (and maybe some other #spp2299 members) in #EGU24 Hall X5 | X5.182 from 16:15-18:00 on Monday
Go say hi!

Mathematical proof: wombats are perfect. ❤️
From their noses to their rumps, wombats perfectly fit the golden ratio.
A wombat's bum is extremely hard and is their biggest weapon. They can use their bum to block their burrow and potentially to crush predators!

Are you at #AGU23 ?? Me too! DM me or stop by my talk tomorrow from 16:00 - 16:10 in 3001 West to learn about SOARS @Scripps_Ocean! Especially if you’re interested in @AGUAtmosSci, I’d love to talk sea spray aerosols!

Happy to see my last major postdoc paper out! We conducted this experiment in spring 2019 in my final months @MoteMarineLab!
Super fun collaboration with amazing colleagues and students + surprising results! What more can you ask for?
@HeatherNicoPage paper is FINALLY out! Fun collaboration from our time in Florida- OA effects (or... lack of!) on tropical seaweeds.

With polling booth data showing that Indigenous people overwhelmingly voted Yes to the Voice, should Jacinta Price apologise, and be sacked as Shadow Minister for Indigenous Australians?
Price not only failed to represent Indigenous people, she actively campaigned against them.

We analysed 50 years of coral reef data to identify patterns in coral resilience, finding links between resistance, recovery and coral cover pre- and post-disturbance 🪸
Pls read and share to help justify the unfathomable amount of hours I put into this😅

You have to seriously contain your anger when these two are seen as an authority on Indigenous issues.
Howard the man who instigated the NT intervention-responsible for dehumanising an entire culture & every health outcome going backwards-incl a 160% inc in suicides.
Howard who was the only living PM who refused to apologise for the forced removals of Aboriginal children..because, well “only a few were wrongly removed”
& Abbott -who cut more funding from critical Indigenous services than any PM. And claims colonialism was good for Aboriginal ppl along with many paternalistic views of Aboriginal ppl that belong in the 1800s.
And to have to gall to deflect from their responsibility in it all.
The lack of insight; basic human empathy of these two is breathtaking
John Howard and Tony Abbott have declared the NT a failed state because of its inability to provide basic services to remote communities, and they say a voice to parliament will not improve practical outcomes: bit.ly/3ZIH8sG

Curious about the rate of ocean temperature change in a global warming hotspot?

no sport on a dead planet! and in the meantime, climate change is making sports worse! i’m old enough to remember when multiple professional sports teams cancelled matches due to forest fire smoke in the northeastern US (last month)

UCSD arrested my friend for writing on a building with chalk. if you agree that this is outrageous, sign this petition to demand that they drop these retaliatory charges and honor the contracts they signed. @uaw2865 @scripps_ocean @ucsandiego @scrippsters

University of California San Diego Police jailed student workers, confiscated their belongings and charged them with felonies - all for writing informative messages about the university's ongoing labor violations using washable chalk.

Our new paper about Air Quality Equity in US Climate Policy is out today in @PNASNews!
The figure highlights the pervasiveness of national and state-level air pollution disparities. But can climate policy change this pattern?
