Replying to @MarkDTarn
@MarkDTarn and I have been visiting the new microfabrication facilities at Stockholm University. Thanks to Alex and @nicolepamme for showing us around. Really interesting to see the tradition of nailing PhD theses to a tree as well!

Coming to the end of an incredible 4 weeks in Happy Valley-Goose Bay for the #MPhase measurement campaign, where I’ve been taking #aerosol samples on the @faam146 aircraft. This project is part of @CloudSenseNERC, aiming to reduce uncertainty in climate sensitivity. – at Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador

If you're interested in life on board a research cruise and would like to find out more about the vital climate science of the @DY151_Cruise you can read the fascinating cruise blogs from @AMT4CO2Flux PI Dr Gavin Tilstone here: amt4co2flux.org/News #climatechange
Collection of images from the cruise: RRS discovery in dock and in sea ice, humpback whale and scientists on board.

World's Thinnest Gold Just Two Atoms Thick Created by Scientists

World's Thinnest Gold Just Two Atoms Thick Created by Scientists

The material is considered to be two-dimensional because all of the atoms—which are laid out in two layers, one on top of the other—are surface atoms.
