This is meeeeee!

[🌳 The Future Forest Company @FutureForestCo]

Meet Mel, our Research Lead 🤓 ​Mel's a geochemist whose research focuses on how physical and chemical weathering processes remove CO2 from the atmosphere. @mel_murphy01 is leading our research program as we test and up-scale enhanced #weathering at our sites at Glenaros.🙌🌏

@Maria_Scheel_ @EGU_CR Ahaha amazing!!

[Mel Murphy @mel_murphy01]

@AOckelford Ahhh, you gave it a good try…

[Mel Murphy @mel_murphy01]

@AOckelford Do you like other dark spirits, like rum?? I reckon Baileys is a good gateway to whisky - try some nice, mild Speysides that aren’t too smokey or peaty

[Mel Murphy @mel_murphy01]

@AOckelford Ever tried adding a little splash of whisky to amp up the Baileys… 10/10 recommend

🧊 ❄️ 🇬🇱Hej permafrostee tweeps (esp those working in Greenland) - anyone interested in doing some research on deep groundwater boreholes drilled under the GrIS?? Seems a shame if they get decommissioned 🧊❄️ 🇬🇱 #glacier #permafrost

@JessicaNCross I have a love-hate relationship with alkalinity

@julianjon Love the fruit socks!

So you want to know what's going on with climate change, but AR6 WGII is a whopping 3,675 pages. How do you read an #ipcc report? Five easy steps:

Another F for the Arctic in the 2021 @NOAA report card.

Rain (yes, wet precipitation!) on the middle of the Greenland ice sheet 🌧 massive wildfires 🔥 permafrost degradation, damage to communities 🏠 dramatic effects to ecosystems and wildlife 🌱 🦠 🐂 🐻‍❄️ 🐳

Looking forward to the #12GagesOfChristmas

[USGS in Idaho @USGS_Idaho]

'Tis the season to celebrate #Idaho's @USGS streamgages and hydrologic technicians with the #12GagesOfChristmas. Follow the hashtag and follow the fun as we kick it off tomorrow.

@alanis_ob Great pic! I remember doing an undergrad field course here back in the day and being completely confounded trying to imagine how these rocks might have been deformed, and also being spoilt seeing a pod of dolphins go by 🐬 Thanks for the nice memory :)

Everyday should be #WorldSoilDay with all the incredible abilities such as #carbonstorage they do! 👩🏼‍🌾

Crazy to think about how much water a single glacial lake outburst flood can release in a single go… #GLOF #jökulhlaup

[Dr. Evgenia Ilyinskaya @EIlyinskaya]

Water volume released in a jökulhlaup from Grímsvötn volcano over the last few days, with Reykjavik city for comparison. The sphere is 1240 m in diameter and holds 1 billion litres (400,000 Olympic pools). Infographic by @Vedurstofan
