It's been a rather rainy week here in Sydney, it felt a lot like the record rains of 2022. So I plotted up the data and wow! This week has been an almost perfect match with April 2022. However, in 2022 we had already received an entire year's worth of rainfall by this stage.

Excited to announce #SeaCofs The coastal ocean forecast system for SE Australia in collaboration with @ACCESS_NRI @IMOS_AUS @SydneyMarine @OceanRes_UNSW and @UNSWScience @unswbees
Replying to @UNOceanDecade
Led by @UNSW, this project will create a new, dynamic and more integrated knowledge base on the East Australian Current – reducing uncertainty, maximising opportunity and preparing for future ocean changes.

Breaking waves are crucial for connecting the ocean with the atmosphere. But how are they modified by wind? In our latest paper, just posted to arXiv, PhD candidate Dan Boettger examines wave breaking under wind forcing in a numerical wave tank. arxiv.org/abs/2402.14106

Congratulations to Prof Moninya Roughan, recipient of the 2023 Clarke Medal 2023 from the @royalsocnsw, the oldest learned society in the Southern Hemisphere. @moninya follows in the footsteps of Douglas Mawson in receiving this prestigious award! @UNSW @OceanRes_UNSW
The data products are available as NetCDF files here: doi.org/10.26198/wbc7-8h24, and relied on decades of data collection by @CSIRO and @IMOS_AUS
Unfamiliar with NetCDF files? ➡️we provide handy CSV files containing marine heatwave/cold spell characteristics at the sites: doi.org/10.26198/wbc7-8h24
code (available in R, Python, and MATLAB) to load and convert the data to CSV files: zenodo.org/records/10633427

Gliders showed extreme low salinity waters extended more than 70km offshore and persisted for months. We observed a vertical double-stacking phenomena with two layers of fresher water extending deeper than 50m. Stratification was controlled by salinity rather than temperature.
Michael Hemming retweeted
It turns out it hangs around for a surprisingly long time.
We used a combination of moorings, gliders and remote sensing to define an observational extremes framework for salinity. This allowed us to track the extent and longevity of freshwater plumes associated with floodwaters

What happens when a historic year of rainfall dumps a bunch of freshwater into the ocean next to a western boundary current?
In @NatureComms today, @moninya, @mphemming, Tim Ingleton and I look at the impact of the 2022 East Australian floods on the ocean

Such a fantastic achievement. We are thrilled to be part of this team.
🌊 A billion signals that tell our oceans’ story.
IMOS is celebrating the amazing milestone of collecting & delivering one billion ocean measurements to be used in a multitude of ways that are relevant in the everyday lives of Australians.
