Around 6,000 ocean scientists are meeting in Glasgow at the AGU Ocean Sciences Meeting, discussing how fossil-fuel-caused climate change is affecting sea levels, ocean currents and life in our oceans. #OSM26

Hall 3 of #OSM26 made me think of silent discos. Works well as long as you don’t accidentally switch on a wrong channel and then get confused because the talk you hear through the headphones doesn’t match the slides you are looking at 🤦‍♀️. #SilentOceanScienceDisco

Wow!!! The relaxation zone in #OSM26 is a conference bonus I haven’t seen before!! Could we have this as a norm in UK based marine conferences please?

Excellent! Will try to find the shop during the next break!

Press | Ocean Sciences Meeting 2026 Welcome to the OSM26 Newsroom and Press Center. Here you will find information that will help you cover the meeting and register.

If you're an environmental journalist in the UK or Europe, the biggest gathering of ocean scientists in the world is happening in Glasgow next week, and you should consider coming to cover some of the most important findings about our life support system. #OSM26

Environmental studies urgently required before Ocean Carbon Capture can go large-scale, scientists warn New paper highlights critical knowledge gaps into the impacts of direct ocean carbon capture and storage (DOCCS) technology.

⚠️ “It would be irresponsible to deploy this technology at commercial scales until we can more accurately understand how species and ecosystems will react."

November 2024 data is now available for both Antarctic sea-ice thickness/volume (zacklabe.com/antarctic-se...) and global sea-ice volume (zacklabe.com/global-sea-i...) from GIOMAS.

Last month's global sea-ice volume is statistically tied for a record low for the month of November.

Earlier this year two reports of the Atlantic Blue Crab, were made on the Sussex coast. This species is non-native to the UK, originating in the western Atlantic Ocean.

Anglers & divers are being asked to report any sightings of this distinctive crab.

A thread with some really beautiful examples of why midwater is my favorite place to explore. From #SchmidtOcean dive 556 during their #VentUnderworld expedition. The midwater above vent sites have never failed to have amazing animals like this stunning Vitreledonella (glass octopus)! #MarineLife

‘It’s nonstop’: how noise pollution threatens the return of Norway’s whales Recordings by biologist Heike Vester reveal how oil and gas exploration as well as cruises, fishing boats and even whale-watchers are adding to the din underwater

‘It’s nonstop’: how noise pollution threatens the return of Norway’s whales.🐋

Oil and gas exploration, cruises, fishing boats & even whale-watchers add to the noise underwater.

(We're pretty sure Norway 🇳🇴 hunting whales doesn't help either❗️)
