Chuffed that I came 3rd in the vote for the best poster! Well done to all the participants :)

Loads of great posters on show here at Climate Change and Marine Ecosystems summer school. Here’s me with mine, but in particular I enjoyed learning about the local ecology and oceanography of the South China Sea.

@LoneWalkerUK @glenntait It also warns you when there may be access restrictions, which could be useful here. Admittedly I’m not sure how good that function is as I rarely walk in areas where it would be an issue.

@LoneWalkerUK @glenntait I find Komoot to be an excellent tool when planning low-level walks and bike rides in Scotland. It has excellent detail in terms of paths, but it is a poor tool in the mountains as it lacks any detail on the features of the hills.

A great first day at Climate Change & Marine Ecosystems summer school, rounded off with a lovely evening meal. Time for day 2! @croucherFDN @StrathMathStat @SUPERDTP1

[Greg Macmillan @gregmacmillan99]

Good morning from Hong Kong! Super excited to be here and looking forward to next week’s @croucherFDN Climate Change and Marine Ecosystems summer course. As ever, thanks to @SUPERDTP1 for making these opportunities possible.

In the early 1800s, Victorian artists and microscopists would rearrange diatoms (microscopic single-cell algae encased in beautiful glass shells) into intricate patterns on glass slides.

This feels like the pixel version.

Excited to share my just accepted paper on American Naturalist @ASNAmNat https://t.co/2hW8LlzbN7

We discovered a mathematical identity equation to partition the slope of linear regression into within-group and across-group regression slopes, which can be useful in many cases.

Today we have live sessions for the @MHScot First Aid for Mental Health. We have discussed our aim to reduce stigma, learn practical intervention skills and foster a positive mental health culture in our community

This was possible due to @NERCscience DEI Flexible Funding Award

[SUPER Doctoral Training Partnership @SUPERDTP1]

It's the 1st day on the @MHScot First Aid for Mental Health course for 26 PGRs and staff from our community! We hope to foster a positive mental health culture in the workplace across our University partners
