Presentation ready ✅ next up ✈️ to Busan, South Korea to attend UN Environment Programme’s #7imdc. If you’re attending, be sure to come say hi & checkout our session TS-2.3 to learn about microbes that live on plastic, aka the #plastisphere. See you soon 7IMDC! Bronwyn Gillanders @KathyWillis_

Jagalchi market- South Korea’s largest seafood market that has 7 levels! They even prepare and cook the seafood which you can eat in the restaurent floor.

July 2023 was the hottest month on record, according to our global temperature analysis. Overall, July was 0.43°F (0.24°C) warmer than any other July in NASA Earth's record, and it's likely due to human activity. Details: go.nasa.gov/3OTWMh7

🚨First paper from my PhD is out now!🚨 We modelled #bluecarbon soil stocks to discover what's driving the variability at a local scale, finding distance to #tidalcreek , #vegetationtype and #soiltexture most important 🌱🌏🌊 Read it here: shorturl.at/hCDT5
