SORTEE Webinar: On what makes good sharable and reproducible R code, how to do it, and why it’s good for science For this month's SORTEE webinar, Dr. Dax Kellie from the Atlas of Living Australia will present on good, sharable, and reproducible R code in science

In one week I'll be talking about tips for reproducible R code and why science would love you to try these tips on your own code too 🧪😍🌏

It's an online talk, so feel free to watch comfortably from your couch. Hope to see you there!

PCI Webinar Series - Peer Community In The PCI webinar series is a series of seminars on research practices, publication practices, evaluation, scientific integrity, meta-research, organised by Peer Community In

Just attended a webinar organised by PCI. Very interesting and somewhat grim reality of the peer review process. I seem to hear more and more that we need to do less but better quality research, and yet more is often a signal of a good CV in academia.

a map of all the huge emissions sourcesin the north sea

Folks: do not sleep on this amazing new tool launched by Al Gore called "Climate Trace". I have never seen an emissions map quite like this. Uses satellites and *assigns emissions to company sources* (!!)

Look at what we've done to the North Sea:
