“Protect What We Love”: At the Katrina Super Bowl, the First Ever Climate Ad Plea for Immediate Action - Moms Clean Air Force The first ever Super Bowl ad making a plea for immediate climate action will be seen by millions on February 9. It airs as America's newly elected President Trump has been stuffing his cabinet with sc...

I don’t only care about climate change because I’m a scientist. I care about climate change because I’m a mom.

Climate change is already impacting the people, places, and things that we love most. And who doesn’t want to protect what we love?

the East Pacific Rise (9 50’N). This area has lots of cool vents AND is on top of an underwater volcano. We’ve been tracking its eruption and our current predictions line up with this cruise! We cannot wait to find out if it has erupted, so please, stay tuned for updates!!

Hi guys! I have some new faces here and I thought I’d do a brief intro. My name is Jess and I’m a 2nd-yr PhD student studying the fluid geochemistry of hydrothermal vents (composition, formation conditions, export of metals/energy sources). I’m currently aboard the R/V Atlantis headed to

I have complained about “pay to play” internships on my Instagram in the past, I have a lot of problems with them

Buckle up because this is the most wild pay to play I’ve seen yet

Hi Bluesky! I’m Alanna (@ocean.alanna on Instagram) and this is my first post! I’m a marine biologist and excited to share all of the interesting things I see in my career. Here is a photo of some larval Caribbean reef squid that I took for my undergraduate thesis 🐙

Tiger-cats, sea squirts and beetles, oh my! Meet some species identified in 2024 From charismatic macrofauna to tiny sea squirts, here are some species formally identified by scientists in 2024.

From charismatic macrofauna to tiny sea squirts, here are some species formally identified by scientists in 2024.

There are about 27,000 scientists at #AGU24, and about half of them work on climate one way or another. Whenever I walk into a room like this, I always take a moment to take it all in—all these people dedicated their lives to working on some of our toughest problems. That gives me strength.

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured stunning images of the gas giants in our solar system. The images show Saturn with its intricate rings, Jupiter with its swirling storms and bands, Uranus with its tilted rings and hazy atmosphere, and Neptune with its faint rings and dynamic weather patterns. These images reveal the beauty and complexity of these distant worlds and offer new insights into their formation and evolution.

I figured it would be fitting for my first post on this platform to be for #invertefest, featuring some of the commissioned work I have done for scientific conferences. Looking forward to drawing many more inverts this year!

Discovery of deep-sea coral symbionts from a novel clade of marine bacteria with severely reduced genomes - Nature Communications Corals and other marine invertebrates host diverse microbes that remain poorly characterized, especially in the deep sea. Here the authors discover a new clade of bacteria with uniquely streamlined ge...
