Research Software Engineer Lead for @BAS_News - all opinions my own...

[James Byrne @JimCircadian]

I gone wrote a blog post about #RSE'ing, becoming a line manager and what might happen in the future, all at @BAS_News and massively supported by the Software Sustainability Institute. Here's hoping for a bright future!

This month's "Beyond the Ice" blog seemed a good moment to gather our own AI experts from the BAS AI Lab + @turinginst:

📌 New emperor penguin location, spotted!

Just in time for #Halloween, @PeterTFretwell
has spotted a penguin colony on the sea ice in the mouth of the spookily named Halloween Crack 🐧

It's a story of survival after big changes to the Brunt Ice Shelf...

Lush to be nominated as part of the @icenet_ai team. Nice work everyone involved at @BAS_News and @turinginst

[IceNet-AI @icenet_ai]

The IceNet team is delighted to announce that we've been nominated for the @_Arctic_Circle's Frederik Paulsen Arctic Academic Action Award, which recognises innovative ideas that address the impacts of climate change in the Arctic. See you in Reykjavik!🧊

@tom_r_andersson Well put Tom. Many developments of humanity have the potential to be dangerous when wielded irresponsibly. Climate change is the result of numerous poor decisions which we can and must work to correct. AI can be prevented from creating such dangers and can be positively adopted.

Really impressed by the Climate Aware Task Scheduler at #CollabW23 hack day. Save 75% of the carbon cost of a simulation with ease! https://t.co/oU5QHEk4G2

[James Byrne @JimCircadian]

Thanks for a great #CollabW23 conference @SoftwareSaved and for publishing my ramble on a bimble through the two days of engaging discussions, talks and workshops! CC @BAS_News

[James Byrne @JimCircadian]

Looking forward to the first day of #CW23 with @SoftwareSaved, apparently "platinum" sponsored by the @turinginst / @turinghut23 (nice to see the connection!) Hopefully some nice #rse vibes to bring back to @BAS_News and @NERCscience

[Shakir Mohamed @shakir_za]

Great presentation from @tom_r_andersson on day 2 @Climformatics 🎉 Active learning improve how we understand the Antarctic. Impressive work. See the paper here: https://t.co/SmT7oBNQch

[James Byrne @JimCircadian]

Really enjoyed presenting at this, big thanks to the #CI2023 team and all the other speakers! @BAS_News

[Institute of Computing for Climate Science @Cambridge_ICCS]

Day 2 of #CI2023 is now under way! Yesterday was filled with many informative talks, including a fantastic keynote by @shakir_za on 'Generative Models for Climate Informatics'.

Looking forward to the keynote by @laurezanna this afternoon!

@MalaVirdee @JimCircadian @icenet_ai

[Tom Andersson @tom_r_andersson]

@JimCircadian at @Climformatics presenting the layered software infrastructure underlying @icenet_ai! 🧅🧊💻

[Climate Informatics @Climformatics]

With only three days remaining until the kickoff of Climate Informatics 2023, we’d like to acknowledge the support of @BAS_News and @turinginst!

Online registration is still open at https://t.co/iUOP11DGFG!

No matter how small the action, you can help combat the water crisis! Save water by:

🌿 not overwatering your plants
🍎 buying local & seasonal food
🛁 avoiding taking baths

Ahead of Wednesday’s #WorldWaterDay, tell us how you're taking #WaterAction 👇

[IceNet-AI @icenet_ai]

Woohoo, @icenet_ai at a conference with @BAS_News @turinginst. IceNet's expertise is sea ice forecasting, so the photo's not great, but hey ho. Come say hello!!! #AIUK 🧊 🧊 🧊 🧊 🧊

[Tom Andersson @tom_r_andersson]

IceNet is at #AIUK! Come and talk to our @BAS_News and @turinginst team about sea ice forecasting with deep learning, operationalising research code, and decision support tools for conserving endangered Arctic species.
