A new paper shows worrying declines in oxygen levels in BC’s Queen Charlotte Sound. Researchers project that its deep waters will be largely hypoxic by 2050, with serious consequences for marine life and fisheries 🔗 https://t.co/ISV9IZVdHP

Last fall, @SWSocean and I led students at @scienceworldca in building sub-surface floats. We had fun prototyping and were floored by the amazing discussion 👩‍🔬👨‍💻
Linked is our paper on reproducing this activity in a classroom (and why we think you should)

Our new paper describing TReX Deep, a tracer release experiment in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Here are some behind the scenes photos from a TReX cruise on the R/V Coriolis II a few years ago, taken by Joerg Behnke. Such a cool project to be a part of!

🌊The hypoxic deep inflow water in the Gulf of St. Lawrence spreads inland at 0.5 cm s-1 and the bulk of the inflow water will reach the estuary after about 4.5 years.

@tjarnikova @simondonner I actually have a bunch of these at UBC- let me know if you’d like to try a few out!

[Samuel Stevens @SWSocean]

@tjarnikova @simondonner One release opinion is a galvanic timed release- an inexpensive sacrificial link that corrodes over a fairly reliable period: https://t.co/URQ0rFRpkr

[Samuel Stevens @SWSocean]

@tjarnikova @simondonner Another is an acoustic release, which is perhaps more expensive than what you’re looking for but allows you to be on site when the mooring/float pops up: https://t.co/j1llrkQTGo

New paper on the variability of dissolved cadmium in BC waters, which can reach unhealthy concentrations in Pacific oyster and zooplankton populations. My first co-authorship— interesting to link the local circulation to our biogeochemical measurements!

Had a great time chatting with @MaxCohen93 and @BeutelBecca about oceans, music, and pancakes.

Our next goal is to link this new picture of the intermediate circulation with measurements of contaminants from around the SoG… watch this space. 7/7

[Samuel Stevens @SWSocean]

Our recent study, just published open access in JPO, looks closely at the intermediate circulation of the Strait of Georgia. In this thread I’ll explain why we care and some of the cool parts of the paper: 1/7

[Samuel Stevens @SWSocean]

@JanDZika A similar thing is happening to us currently for JPO- the early online release has been available behind a paywall since March but the paper isn’t made open access until the final release when all fees are paid. If anyone’s paid to access it already… I guess they’re outta luck?

[Samuel Stevens @SWSocean]

@JonnyChapman Sounds like you'll be back at BIOS soon- that's exciting news, massive congratulations Jonny!

[Samuel Stevens @SWSocean]

@ice_rivers_sam @NatureClimate @UBCeoas @ubcnews Congratulations Sam, fantastic news! Such a cool study... my favourite seminar talk (don't tell the oceanographers).

[Samuel Stevens @SWSocean]

Enjoyed my discussion with @NealPetersenNB and our ocean ambassadors this morning on Ocean Diaries. Watch the replay here (ignore the few minor technical glitches at the beginning🙃).

[Neal Petersen @NealPetersenNB]

With a team of scientists and students, I discuss using science in my yacht racing to win, share stories of the seas and the power to dream. Watch and join us.
