REMUS SharkCam: The Hunter and the Hunted YouTube video by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution

Arguably scarier than Jaws (at least for anyone who works with AUVs)

The bergs in the sunny photos are much smaller bergs that broke off A-68, and were much closer. While A-68a was 23 km away, A-68p was about 2 km away at the time, between us and A-68a. The other glider was deployed the previous day, on the other side of A-68a and closer, but in poor visibility...

Scientists sent this glider to explore around a huge iceberg 🌊

For the first time, they saw the dramatic changes the berg's meltwater made to the ocean, up close.

Iceberg calving is a natural process - but these results will help us understand the climate impact of more frequent calving...

Magellanic penguin looking up from a burrow in the ground, surrounded by grass and scattered white feathers.

Rockhopper penguins taking a shower from a stream dripping down from rocks above. On top of the rocks are nesting black-browed albatrosses.

A lone macaroni penguin surrounded by rockhopper penguin chicks. The macaroni is substantially larger.

Happy #PenguinAwarenessDay! Here are a few penguins to be aware of, photographed two years ago on Saunders Island and Pebble Island in the Falkland Islands..

How does glacier calving around Antarctica trigger underwater tsunamis? 🌊

An international team of scientists have been awarded £3.7 million to investigate this “unchartered scientific territory” using advanced technology.

Welcome to the IAPSO ECS network. We will use this account to highlight information important for early career ocean scientists, such as job opportunities, conferences, new exciting research (especially by ECS), etc. You can find more at www.iapsoecs.org (eg. a list of recent job openings)

Perhaps, depending on which floor the defenestration took place from (and which windows have been left open)?

Defenestration - Wikipedia

It’s a perfectly cromulent word 😉 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defenes...

Similar to “defenestrating”?
