A model to trace methane from the seafloor to the atmosphere
When people picture gas leaking from the seafloor, they often imagine plumes of bubbles that make up a direct path from the seabed to the sky. The reality, however, is far more complex and far more interesting. Between the seafloor and the atmosphere lies an entire ocean of physics, chemistry, and biology that controls the …[Read More]

ROBIN: Tracking Climate Change Through the World’s Most Natural Rivers
Hydrological change is one of the clearest signals of climate variability and human impact on the environment. Yet detecting these changes reliably requires robust, long-term data from river basins that are as close to “natural” as possible, with little influence from dams, abstractions, land use change or any other human influences. That’s where the ROBIN …[Read More]

Panikhar village in Ladakh woke beneath fifteen centimetres of snow, an unseasonal blanket that changed the functioning of the valley and stunned its people. What began as a glaciological field trip turned into a firsthand …[Read More]
Beyond Tectonics (and Beyond Earth): On the geological timescales of other rocky bodies in our solar system
Geological timescales Unless you regularly work in “deep” time or are very interested in Earth’s very ancient history you might not be too familiar with Earth’s geological timescale. What I am referring to is this: From the very beginning of Earth’s formation ~4.5 billion years ago to today each period is defined and …[Read More]
