I'm excited that @histocean.bsky.social is offering this early career scholars prize in #oceanshstm & that it's named after Jacqueline Carpine-Lancre. Mme Carpine had a huge influence on the field, + she was tremendously supportive & kind when I did research in Monaco as a grad student
🚨Hey, #oceans #oceansHSTM peeps!🚨
New, very #interdisciplinary project looking for "researchers in #architecture, #biology, #oceanography, #FishingHistory, & related fields ... willing to mix theory & practice in a critical & imaginative...
Swire added:
I wish they would catch one for us . . . for in the words of the poet:
‘…… ‘Tis very sad:
All our fresh provisions turning bad;
Our home-cured pork of which we thought so well
Has now acquired a most pork-uliar smell’.

.@NaomiOreskes: Navy funding also negatively affected both scientific morale & public trust (not to mention other things like gender representation in ocean science).
@HistOcean #ICHST2021 #HistOcean #OceanHist #OceansHSTM
.@NaomiOreskes: Navy funding also *didn't* support some things, which then weren't as well studied, simply because Navy wasn't interested.
Two major areas of exclusion: #fisheries & #climatechange
@HistOcean #ICHST2021 #HistOcean #OceanHist #OceansHSTM
.@NaomiOreskes: Navy influence impeded development of plate tectonic theory, for instance. @HistOcean #ICHST2021 #HistOcean #OceanHist #OceansHSTM
@NaomiOreskes: US Navy & oceanographers had an "epistemic confluence of interest" which didn't skew results, but affected what Qs got asked (or didn't) in studying the oceans in the 20th c. @HistOcean #ICHST2021 #HistOcean #OceanHist #OceansHSTM
Finally, @Antony_Adler tackles verticality at @HistOcean #ICHST2021 with "Deep horizons: Canada’s #underwater habitat program & vertical dimensions of #marine sovereignty"

.@aquariumglass's @HistOcean #ICHST2021 talk is from her book _Oceans under Glass_, forthcoming from @UChicagoPress
I am so looking forward to this book . . . and isn't that *the* *best* title ever?!
#HistOcean #OceanHist #OceansHSTM
Whew, my talk for #ICHST2021 is done!
Now to sit back & listen to @em_hutcheson talk about “So-called” coral reefs: Algae, transnational networks & the biological turn in reef science 1896-1928" @HistOcean

The history of marine science shared Zotero library has grown to 690 sources, with 28 contributors.
Can you get us to 700?
(Or you can just use it without contributing--no pressure!)
