Alex Thomson is in Tenerife, about to set off on a 8 day expedition investigating how a collapse of the Atlantic current could cool northern and western Europe.
Eyes on the horizon, Dundonians!
RRS Discovery is due to steam up the River Tay to Port in Dundee around 16:30 on Mon 8 Sept – we’re counting on you to give her a warm Dundee welcome! 👋🏴

We were delighted to host parliamentarians, industry leaders & friends of NOC at our ‘Ocean & Marine Research’ event this week with @mastscot - inspiring discussions on Scotland’s marine science future.
Thanks to all who joined us, see you in Dundee for our #RRS100 celebrations!
A great story of missing buoys at sea saved through the @NOCnews partnership with the @metoffice. This really nice blog gives an insight both into the challenges of observing at sea and the importance of marine observations for our weather predictions.
In November 2024, one of our ocean buoys became lost at sea during Storm Bert...
Eventually found washed up on a beach in Ireland, but what did we learn from the buoy's unexpected journey?
Read our blog post 👇
"Sea levels have risen by 13.4cm in the UK since 1993, compared with a global average of 10.6cm".
Are we as a country ready? We know climate change is happening but do we know what it means for us and our infrastructure?

It's lovely to have RRA Discovery home. Nothing like poking your head out of the window and hearing and seeing a research ship gearing up #oceanscience
"Happy" #WorldOceanDay everybody. Sea surface temperatures are raging and we are getting closer and closer to the threshold 1.5oC above preindustrial air temperatures. Time to remember the importance of the #Ocean and #OceanScience for a sustainable and safe future for all.
Returning home from the beautiful #Oban with colleagues from @PlymouthMarine. We've been at @SAMSoceannews for the @CLASS_UKRI annual science meeting with my colleagues @NOCnews and @thembauk. Great bunch of folks from the marine research community discussing #ocean#science.
A QUARTER of the ocean floor has now been mapped! 🗺️
Additional new data - equating to an area twice the size of Argentina - has been added seeing the total percentage of the seabed mapped rise to 24.9%.

The first individual year at +1.5C will not in itself mean that the "Paris Agreement 1.5C" has been exceeded
HOWEVER, even in the IPCC's very low emissions scenario, long-term warming is more likely than not to exceed 1.5C on average over 2021-2040 (🧵)
