[Dr. Patrick Rafter @OceanAndClimate]

During Covid lockdown, 12 friends and I made a massive synthesis of deep-sea radiocarbon (14C) over the past 25,000 years. Our paper, out today, provides strong evidence that deep-sea 14C ventilation during the last glacial period was SLOWER and LOWER

A student working with me @UCIrvine @uciess (Chloe Selby) just had a nice write-up on the main UCI webpage (and she mentions our lab! https://t.co/Va5QugbBo7)

@rmbundy @USFCMS (Sorry to all the editors I’ve turned down recently but I really truly absolutely deserve an award or a high five or a cookie or something for the past three years of reviews)

[Dr. Patrick Rafter @OceanAndClimate]

@rmbundy Yeah I stepped up HUGELY during Covid and I needed to slow down (also prepare to move to @USFCMS )

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.

@aitch_bar @mattyglesias I never knew (and grew up nearby)!
