@Matthew__Watson @UoBristolVolc Amazing news!! It looks great!

Would also love to see it fly some rad detectors at some point ;)

[Dean Connor @D_Connor94]

@CliftonPhotonic @BristolUni Cheers to all at @CliftonPhotonic!!

@flynnbr11 @NaturePhysics That's awesome! Congratulations Brian!

[Dean Connor @D_Connor94]

@carlagrec @ipc2021 Congratulations on your prize Carla!! That's an awesome achievement.

@Matthew__Watson @lcgeography Remote Sensei-ing?

[Dean Connor @D_Connor94]

@DrKieranWood @BristolUni @UOBFlightLab @BristolUniEng @NCNRobotics Cannot wait to deploy that!

@geologyjomiles I'd be happy to share stuff about our Chernobyl/Fukushima fieldwork

[Dean Connor @D_Connor94]

@jonny_teague @Ikelite Well done man!

[Dean Connor @D_Connor94]

@Sonifyed Yeah, I agree with the other points. The temperature and ionic strength don't change as rapidly as the pressure, so they will likely persist.
Does the ionic content negatively affect the CO2 content because it encourages bubble formation through nucleation?

[Dean Connor @D_Connor94]

@Sonifyed Loved the talk!
Just a thought though: Will the additional CO2 dissolved in the liquid from the extra time you leave the bottle attached not simply exsolve and degas when you depressurise the container to drink it?

@L_atomedesavoie @DrKieranWood @NCNRobotics @UOBFlightLab Just in case you haven't already come across the data, a recent publication outlining the initial results from our monitoring can be found at:

More will follow in the coming months!

If you wish to view the corrected maps and manuscript.

[Dean Connor @D_Connor94]

I am sad to say that I recently discovered an error in the code used to process our radiation measurements in Chernobyl. This has since been corrected and a corrigendum has been published on the original article. Please see the following link. https://t.co/65j7OFuHew

[Dean Connor @D_Connor94]

I can only apologise for the error, which was my own and was merely a typo in the code. I do feel however that it is important that these errors are made public in the interest of scientific integrity. If you already downloaded the article, please download it again.

@Matthew__Watson @BenSchellenberg Warnings you don't normally find in the instruction manual...

@Edstonification I took a quick look at it yesterday, it's a really good resource! Moves quickly but is also really thorough.
