Sorry to my hotel neighbour who has probably heard my talk 10 times now. For everyone else; come along this Friday to hear about some of the ecosystem impacts from the 2019 IOD event, and how small-scale processes play an important role in modulating localised effects. #EGU23

Truly fortunate to get to undertake fieldwork in some stunning places, this time the Maldives for some mooring servicing and redeployments, as well as a bit of survey. – at Maldives

Managed to capture something very cool this evening. Three surfers at Bigbury hanging around on the tidal front and posing for a photo!

Did a lot of walking today looking round the city. For perspective that's about 14.5 km but only slightly more more steps than the number of in person attendees. #AGU22

Very excited to have arrived at #AGU22, the sheer scale of the conference is crazy. Even more exited to be taking this Friday at 12:05 on Ecosystem impacts of internal waves in session OS53B! #oceanscience #marinescience #oceanography

Side project: Good things come in small packages - introducing TinyRTK. Weighing in at just 34g (+batt & ant), costing less than £150 to build from off the shelf parts. With a 45x45x25mm footprint this module can fit on 'mini' drones for either short range RTK over WiFi or PPK
Excited to have completed my first conference presentation at #Challenger150 today. There's some great talks to come from all the team @JoannaL_Harris @DannielleEager & @Clara_Diaz_974 later in the week, as well as plenty of time to catch us in the poster sessions!

Always thrilled to have such stunning coastline so close to home

Older coastal defenses without a return wall result in energetic impacts. Produces great photos, probably not so good for the sea wall – at East, England

Great couple of days out on Falcon Spirit at Eddystone reef collecting combined fisheries acoustics and current data. Dropped off a bedframe for a dissertation project on the way back as well! @DannielleEager @ClareEmbling @RVFalconSpirit

Building up a minimal length Nortek Signature 500 for vessel mounted survey. It really is tiny compared to its normal long battery housing! #NORTEK #oceanography #survey

Repair work starting on Tinside steps, and survey work for installing pontoons. Glad to see it
