Happy #PolarPride! It's with overwhelming joy that I'm able to share this message of love, hope, and celebration from LGBTQ people and our allies from across #Antarctica. I think it's safe to say we have the most pride per capita of any continent on the planet. 🌈#LGBTQSTEMDay

Important thread for @CCAMLR1 and #Antarctica
MEASO is a spatially structured ecosystem assessment by >200 scientists (40% ECRs, >50% female) over 5 years, collating knowledge on all aspects of the ecosystem and human activities affecting it and affected by it. 25 papers have been submitted to date in this synthesis.

“You shall not read gray literature on Wikipedia.”
So behold, the figures from your paper are cited for “Biogeochemical cycle” and “Particulate organic matter” on Wikipedia. 🤡
