Took a while but it's finally out!

Do you like followable maths, pretty pictures, and/or fluid dynamics?

Then read my latest paper on thermals, just published in @JFluidMech from my PhD work @Cambridge_Eng

Man possessed by chainsaw and fights devils is a ridiculous premise. How is it so good?

[Met Office Science @MetOffice_Sci]

A team of Met Office scientists led by Prof Adam Scaife has calculated tiny changes in the length of day are predictable out to more than a year ahead. It's all to do with predicting the strength of atmospheric winds

Finding it mildly amusing/exasperating that I am unable to read the published version of a paper I just helped author because of a paywall 🙃 #AcademicTwitter #publishers #AcademicChatter #Predator

[Jack Atkinson @Jack_Atkinson22]

@Penny_Wieser Yes! Currently at NAM, and with cases rising in the UK it's great to be able to watch the plenaries from a ventilated area instead of a 500-person theatre!

OK, now this is pretty impressive. Amazed it took so long for someone to simulate that experiment (or maybe it's just the first successful one!).

It is a sad moment to say goodbye to my #ERC starting grant. It was really lovely to almost have you. What is even more sad, is that it remains uncertain whether we will associate to #horizonEU and allow future UK scientists the chance to do great things.

[Internet of Shit @internetofshit]

it is very funny/terrifying that Canada’s favorite coffee chain was covertly data mining the shit out of people who just wanted cheap coffee, and they got outed by the government

We are excited to share first looks at GOES-18 imagery!

A wonderful full view of Earth.

Though beautiful, GOES-18 data is preliminary and non-operational.

@lenajeha I found your debit card whilst running this morning. I'm at the British Antarctic Survey if you want to come and collect it. Drop me a message or email.
