Who lives on Greenland's seafloor? Why? And will they still be there tomorrow?

Check out our article and learn about one of the largest benthic dataset from Greenland so far:

@Miasjien @MEVorrath @ktstiftung @geoengineering1 Wow congrats!!

Lots of ice in Nuup Kangerlua, West Greenland 🇬🇱 . Time to study the effect on benthos 🦀🐚🪸 and the carbon cycle?!

@MEVorrath Komm nach Grönland, hier 5 grad und regen. Seit Wochen. Vermutlich allerdings angenehmer als 45 grad...

Do you know what “parachute science” is? When we scientists collect data and run without considering the impact on, or benefits to, local communities. @theAGU is working to raise awareness and reduce parachute science among our members and authors.

@CaroMLCamargo @NIOZnieuws @tudelft @remriva @HermansTHJ Big congrats!!

How come this article, with fieldwork conducted in Colombia, has no Colombian authors, not even authors affiliated with Colombian institutions?

@NinaIRamos @isdsc8 @quattrinia @SmithsonianDPO @mud_Iark Congrats on your award, well-deserved! Your work is really advancing science & outreach, already curious what you have to tell next time!

A great keynote by @LDeClippele and @SandraRMaier in the trophodynamics and biogeochemical cycling session this morning!

First up, the impact of scallop dredging. Dredges typically feature a spring-loaded bar covered in metal ‘teeth’ designed to dig up the seabed to disturb & catch scallops, towing a heavy steel-ring collecting ‘bag’ behind. It’s highly destructive, classed as ‘high impact’.

"..the hypercompetitive academic environment offers a 'survival benefit' for people with personality traits such as boldness, dominance, meanness and disinhibition [...] we need to make sure that academic leaders are culturally sensitive tram players..." (Täuber & Mahmoudi 2022)

"Bullying is a means for mediocre scientists to rise to the top. Some star academics reached their position because they are bullies, not in spite of it." - Excellent piece about bullying in academia (and really any other professional environment). https://t.co/JTqGBaAuuf

@quattrinia Same here, maybe it’s too intelligent for us 😉

[Dr. Sandra Maier @SandraRMaier]

@quattrinia When you question the answer it provides, it just says „sorry, the opposite is correct“, providing 4 opposed answers in less than a minute… so just to get this right, this is the new era of intelligence and scientific publications? Good to know!

[Dr. Sandra Maier @SandraRMaier]

@AngelBorjaYerro @anariesgogil 😂 and it’s the fault of the reviewers… must have been a non-critical reviewer1

[Dr. Sandra Maier @SandraRMaier]

@rystanman @CherisseDuPreez Funny, always got the same thought!
