If you are working on #Antarctic and/or #SouthernOcean #biodiversity then you should consider submitting to our symposium:
From Antarctica and Southern Ocean to Australia: Current Ecological Research and Conservation Challenges
Securing Antarctica's Environmental Future
This is a fantastic summary thread 🧵 of new research to identify features of value in the Antarctic Peninsula region related to #biodiversity , #science , and #tourism .👇

I was delighted to successfully start sample processing at Monash Rock Crushing Laboratory today. In a later step, we will use cosmogenic nuclide dating to better understand the history of East Antarctic glaciers (and not only)❄️☄️Monash Earth, Atmosphere and Environment 🌏🌪️🍃 Monash Science Monash Ice Sheet Initiative (MISI) Securing Antarctica's Environmental Future
If you work in climate science you've probably experienced climate anxiety and/or eco-grief at some point.
Our former colleague Georgia Watson is part of a team working to understand the impacts of these emotions on STEMM professionals.

The 🌊 Southern Ocean is renowned for having the cleanest air on🌏
But until now scientists haven't understood why🤔
New research in npj Journals shows how clouds & rain play a crucial role in 'scrubbing' the air clean.
