@andrewusher @SeanSeale @feelthebyrn1 What do you use to annotate on Boox? and What do you use to sync back to Zotero.

Seems like I can pay for enhanced storage in Zotero App to access PDFs....OR... go 3rd party and 2 way sync.

Zot App would mean 2 way note sync but I'd have to pay from my reading of things so far?

Baleines! Had a great time yesterday searching for whales (turned out to be a tough day as apparently they should have been everywhere). Finally we saw loads of Belugas (about 2 miles away), one then swam in closer and finally a Minke cruised past!

Thank you to @DrMarkyC Lucas Porz @Chatting85 Sophie Ward @ZoeRoseby and @DrNatalieHicks for such a fantastic #BlueCarbon session at @EuroGeosciences. Great posters, talks, and socials making everyone feel a part of the gang

Learnt lots, met brilliant people, and enjoyed Vienna

Wir sind angekommen! @EuroGeosciences Day 1 - Team
@ConvexSeascape with a fascinating #BlueCarbon poster session. All talks are tomorrow from 16.15 in Room 2.17

Excited to be winging my way to Vienna for @EuroGeosciences and looking forward to presenting our work on the @ConvexSeascape Survey to the @EGU_Ocean crowd! If you want to chat mud, worms and carbon I'm all ears! #BlueCarbon #EGU25 #EGUVienna #ConvexSeascapeSurvey #CarbonScience

Seems @easyJet have sold a load of flights they never intended on fulfilling. Paid more for midday flight given night flight "at no cost" basically been robbed by easyJet for believing their offered flights @BBCWatchdog @ABTAtravel @TheSun @MailOnline @WhichUK

[Adam Porter @ap3489]

Hey @easyJet booked flight 2nd Dec to fly in May. You've already cancelled it. Paid extra for midday flight. Your solution is to give me the night flight at the same cost. The midday flight was more than £20 more per ticket. Seems you're just fleecing me.

Lovely to have our last @ExeterMarine @UoEBiosciences HSE theme seminar.

Josephine Tod tells us tales from the @biocarbon_nerc North Atlantic cruise

Gary Codling shares what the @CREWW_uk building is all about

@ben_hadn @Seal_Sanctuary This is great news Ben! Well done!

[Adam Porter @ap3489]

Surely these two things can't both be true. Maybe there's something I don't understand but HOW can you post such massive profits and then say you need to pass the cost of keeping our rivers and seas clean on to the consumer?

@Philip_HarrisUK I haven't been able to order from you for about a week now - any idea when your site will be fixed?

[Adam Porter @ap3489]

Thankful for such mindful leaders at @UniofExeter Prof. Tim Lenton reminding us at @GSI_Exeter conf. that we (as researchers) need to remember that these are OUR mistakes to correct. We should be humble actors in a network for change

A pleasure to be at the @GSI_Exeter summer conference. Both to represent the work of the @ConvexSeascape with Riyad but even more to think about how do we create transformational change for people and the planet.

Exciting to be at the @GSI_Exeter summer conference. @coxypm opening the conference which will showcase our leading climate research and asking where do we go from here.

The full paper finds again that snows change sinking rates, particle shape and polymer matters, and this all will likely impact upon #microplastic fate, and biogeochemical cycles by changing the rate of nutrient flux to the benthos.

[Adam Porter @ap3489]

Encouraging when something you did is still of interest Francesco Parrella @ETH @DeniseMitrano et al do a brilliant job at constraining and improving our earlier work on #microplastic sinking in #MarineSnow

Our summary is out in @NatureWaterJnl

Exciting to be on day 2 of the @SideshoreEx Sea Safety Fortnight running the @UniofExeter @ExeterMarine Environment workshop.

Indoor rockpooling, a ballpit feeding experiment, and becoming ocean heros with primary kids!

Very interesting work from @ProfBenthos showing bioturbation is likely a significant control on sediment mixed layer depth. Timely in the light of our @ConvexSeascape work looking at #bioturbation and #bluecarbon.

[Adam Porter @ap3489]

@StaceyFelgate @MarijaSciberras @micheljkaiser I'll keep an eye out for it!
