Very impressive - a 3-D printed rocket engine!!

Horrific plastic pollution of the marine food chain in my plankton sample. Fish like herrings and sardines that feed upon plankton now have microplastics in their food and so will the animals that eat them such as dolphins, seals, polar bears and seabirds. @zeiss_micro

WOW!!! This was Setif, #Algeria, Africa yes Africa yesterday afternoon 24th January! Photo: Ãbdø BK Habirech via cycloneorhodes #severeweather #snowfall #extremeweather

[Dr Richard Kirby @PlanktonPundit]

The shocking extent of our microplastic pollution in the sea. An arrow worm in my plankton sample has died after trying to eat a blue, plastic microfibre that is just 8µm in diameter (0.008mm). @zeiss_micro

MetOc students take note.

@warfareyo Ridge running up Channel and a decaying warm front across Wales. Unfortunately, without some sounding data, difficult to say. I’ll save that one, get some more info and add it to one of my lectures.

[Paul Rampling @RamplingDrP]

@warfareyo No pressure - excuse the pun - depends when and where you took it. No distinctive fronts around at the moment. Possible hydraulic jump?

[Paul Rampling @RamplingDrP]

Hope he doesn’t get stuck in an eddy... for too long.
