Postdoc position in Oceanography and Paleoclimatology at the University of Oxford - shorturl.at/yTblW
The role involves exploring the role of ocean circulation in setting and responding to equator-pole temperature gradients over the Phanerozoic.
Deadline is 17 April 2026.
It is hard to overstate how critical @ncar-ucar.bsky.social is to climate science in the US and around the world. It's the beating heart of our field. Generations of scientists have trained there, and almost everyone I know relies on deep collaborations with NCAR scientists. It's end is unthinkable.
Excited about our annual varsity staff football game this Sunday vs. Bath, at Twerton Park. Looking to bring the trophy back to Bristol where it belongs! Raising money for Southmead Hospital.

Just published an article about our paper in @fafnirjournal.bsky.social describing how climate models were used to simulate fantasy worlds like Middle-earth & Westeros as well as for a new world I've developed for a cli-fi fantasy story theconversation.com/do-middle-ea...
Paper alert! V pleased to announce my latest paper "The relative role of direct orbital forcing versus CO2 & ice feedbacks on Quaternary climate", in Nature Communications - doi.org/10.1038/s414..., with @natalieslord.bsky.social, @climatesamwell.bsky.social, @thefosterlab.bsky.social + many others!
This began years ago when I interviewed Dan Lunt from the University of Bristol about his climate model of Middle-earth (from Lord of the Rings). I released the interview as a trilogy of videos because, of course a trilogy! youtu.be/jJNkd5g6oxI?...
