Thank you Kimberly Aiken for this shared post! Pictured here is Ada Blackjack, an Alaskan Iñupiat seamstress from Spruce Creek Nome, Alaska. Ada is the (forgotten) Arctic Queen explorer who became the only survivor of an all-male Arctic expedition.

For those wanting to see a concession speech, this one by John McCain — congratulating Obama in 2008 — is worth watching again. See how he faces down the boos from his own supporters. Very few greater moments of humility.

Ever wondered how to quantitatively link an animal’s short-term response to a stressor to the long-term population consequences? If so, see our new paper on understanding the population consequences of disturbance. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

A sad story for our Sharks as a Spanish vessel was detained after illegally finning an estimated 5,000 sharks in Irish waters. Have your say to protect sharks in UK as part of the new fisheries bill: ow.ly/lZuF30lIazE #sharks #sharkfin ow.ly/E3Rb30lI93z

Our sacrifices made for science on our way to the #NorthPole for @NorthPole2018 !

Blood and spit...the rather unladylike details of the sacrifices to manners we made for science on the recent @northpole2018 expedition from WIRED (article not to be read by our mothers): wired.com/story/inside-all-f…

Mission Unstoppable: Inside the All-Female Trek to the North Pole

A dozen women brave polar bears and frostbite to walk, ski, and trudge to the top of the world. It’s a bonding exercise, yes, but also a unique chance to study the female body in extremis.

Popped in to visit SMASS in Inverness. Minimum 38 dead Cuvier’s beaked whales in Scotland since early August, more in Ireland & ongoing. All avenues need to be investigated to protect whales & prevent future events

Including minus 40 degree temperatures, the prospect of aggressive polar bears, vast open leads of water, and even the vagaries of the Russian government. bit.ly/2C0ZIoO
