People often answer this with "dress timeless," but I don't think that's really the answer. A lot of guys bought tweed sport coats and oxford shoes 15 years ago and are now in totally different clothes because those styles were ultimately not them. 🧵

Does the US-based marine #CDR community realize the new NSF directorate (new.nsf.gov/tip/about-tip) is requesting guidance for funding future research? This RFI is due in about 24 hours (it's here tinyurl.com/mr4dbu4v). Are any #mCDR groups going to submit an RFI? We should!

July 30, 1920, birthday of American #geologist Marie Tharp. Her seafloor profiles and maps based on data collected by Bruce Heezen provided evidence that mid-ocean ridges are rift zones, supporting the theory of plate tectonics in the 1960s 🌍 tinyurl.com/2yxv2by9

Kaustubh Thirumalai and I were inspired to highlight the accomplishment of @PaleoRoss et al., who’ve put a fresh coral species through its paleo-archive paces: a significant undertaking with a rich scientific history. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/20…

Love that there is a Sticky Bumps (a surf wax company) sticker on this oceanographic instrument who Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) put it on?

Can I have an invite to blue sky please? Anyone?

I’m on the Bluesky app with a similar handle Oceanandclimate dot bsky dot social Need more friends there so hit me up (I have no codes to give her but I will offer when I have them) Thanks Zack Labe !

Scientific ocean drilling folks! Please consider signing and sharing our letter to U.S. National Science Foundation detailing why we need concrete commitments now to support our field given the rapidly approaching retirement of JOIDES Resolution Academic Chatter™ IODP at Texas A&M docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Mystery! Still looking for a better shot, but does anyone know what these green orbs are? We saw them on a few dives, mostly at 200 - 500 m depths, off the OR coast and at Axial Seamount. At first I thought they were clogged larvacean houses, but they're all perfectly circular.

Thanks @marmite_usf !

Wow, yeah Heather! Ocean Carbon & Biogeochemistry (OCB)

A student working with me UC Irvine UCI ESS (Chloe Selby) just had a nice write-up on the main UCI webpage (and she mentions our lab! OceanAndClimate.com) See it here: ps.uci.edu/news/2971

Wonderful farewell presentation by Dr. Patrick Rafter
