Have you read Chris Reddy's book on Sci Comm? routledge.com/Science-Commun…
Addressing today's complex issues requires collaboration, which is only possible with effective & empathetic communication. @Chris__Reddy tells good stories and shares lessons learned.
Looking forward to reading a new critical assessment of microplastics in shellfish by the UConn team! doi.org/10.1080/23308249.202…

When #HurricaneIan made landfall in SW Florida, @CDIPBuoys measured significant wave heights. The largest individual wave was 52 feet (15.9 meters) at station 226-Pulley Ridge. This exceeded all previous events measured by CDIP along the Gulf Coast of Florida, dating back to 2007

Looking forward to the official start of #7IMDC this morning in Busan, despite the excitement of #TyphoonNanmadol. Lovely stroll yesterday along the river, complete with a heron!
Thrilled to launch the SEA Plastics Lab website, which we hope will be a useful resource for the community (all of them!). With huge thanks and kudos to our web designers, @avadeleon_, Chloe Beittel, and Isabelle Stewart! tinyurl.com/SEA-Plastics-Lab

The same message holds for global plastic pollution.
Heard in a keynote today: "Hope makes a better companion than despair." (Jesse Ausubel at LIU)
No obituary for planet Earth. Climate outlook bleak, but not hopeless. Several scientists, officials fight against doomism. @MichaelEMann @CFigueres @JacquelynGill @ClimateOfGavin @andersen_inger @JFrancisClimate apnews.com/article/fighting-…
Bravo @FIFIPR and thanks to all the great participants for making our first sessions of #oceanplasticworkshop a success!
More to come the next 2 days, see the agenda at: oceanplasticworkshop.com. Registration will be open until 3 hours prior to event start!
... and live from South Africa, @FIFIPR moderated an amazing session on public engagement via documentaries, journalism and perspectives from the plastics industry.
Registration is still open for 15 other sessions! eventbrite.com/cc/ocean-plas…
Me too! Thanks a million to @AliceXiaZhu for leading the charge. #7IMDC

We celebrated a new AUV in Scibotics as it went from schematics to machine shops, 3D printers, long nights and a villiage of people @WHOI and @MBARI_News to its first soak and now we have the newest robot 4 science we call Stella. @amylkukulya @adacalaska @USCG @dhsscitech
Fantastic opportunity to study plastics degradation with two of the best @WHOI -@Chris_Reddy & Collin Ward!
