Here's the replay of #Eclipse2024 from North Falmouth, MA, maxing out at 90%. Shot with my Canon EOS 6DII with 300 mm f4 L and a solar filter.

Today, the earth shook. On Monday, the sun will vanish. Fun times in the Northeast.

How do scientists 'predict' the complex natural climate phenomenon that is #ElNiño? ⛈️ Dan Rudnick—the director of the Instrument Development Group and a Scripps oceanographer—shares more about the Spray2 glider and how these gliders support ocean observations. ⬇️

Recent studies about the potential collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Ocean Conveyer– or #AMOC–have led to misleading news stories about the #GulfStream shutting down. #WHOI's @RTodd_Ocean sets the record straight in this Ocean Fact-Checker: go.whoi.edu/gulfshutdown

Plane is overweight for takeoff, so we’re parked on the taxiway with throttles forward to burn off excess fuel. Really @united? Not exactly doing any favors for the planet.

Over the past two decades, the #GulfStream has warmed by 2℉ and shifted significantly toward the coast. So what does that mean for New Englanders? #WHOI's @RTodd_Ocean shares his insights with @PNS_News : go.whoi.edu/pns-gulf-stream

How can we improve Coastal Observing Systems to better prepare for climate change at the coasts? Come join the @USCLIVAR community, @RTodd_Ocean, and me next April, 2024 and help us design climate solutions 🌊💡

Shutdown or slowdown? No, not the federal government - the #GulfStream! News headlines suggest this crucial ocean current could shut down in a few years—but #WHOI oceanographer @RTodd_Ocean says it's more complicated than the headlines. Get the facts: go.whoi.edu/gulfshutdown

The #GulfStream will not ‘shut down’. Period. It can and is changing as the climate warms, but it will always be a warm, fast, poleward flowing current along the East Coast of the US. whoi.edu/oceanus/feature/wil…

Thrilled to report that, as of today, our household has won the two-player edition of 'Academia--The Game'! Two **tenured** positions in the **same department**! Thanks to the many letter writers and ad hoc committee members for signing off on us over the last 10 years!

A nice article about our recent @NatureClimate paper on the Gulf Stream warming and shifting gradually toward the coast, particularly focusing on potential impacts for the Gulf of Maine. pressherald.com/2023/10/23/a…
