inside a dune!

AINSE PGRA scholarship applications are now open. I was lucky enough to get a PGRA during my PhD (and, later, an ECRG during my last postdoc), and the support was invaluable. Highly recommend applying! https://www.ainse.edu.au/postgraduate/ #AcademicChatter #AusAcademia

i'm hiring an assistant lecturer (3 years - mostly research, some teaching) to join the monash geomorph lab - please see the job posting and my listserv emails for more info and/or get in touch! please share widely! careers.pageuppeople.com/513/cw/en/jo...

Kebonye Dintwe will give the ISAR virtuaeolian seminar on fire’s role in sub-Saharan savanna December 10th 5pm Central African Time - please sign up and see our other talks here www.aeolianresearch.com/seminar/

Come do a PhD with Channing Prend and myself! The project will use seal data and models to understand Antarctic Slope Current dynamics. Based in Edinburgh, UK, but with opportunities for time in Australia also. e4-dtp.ed.ac.uk/e5-dtp/super... 🌊

If you are into granular material, piles and how granular jets fall and impact on a surface, @ramsudhirsharma.bsky.social got you covered on Sunday morning!

Second paper from our lab! Led by Mobin Alipour, we show phoretic migration due to solute gradients drastically changes the transport of colloids in porous media, even suppressing the influence of geometric disorder! arxiv.org/abs/2411.14712

I didn't see this already, so I went through my follow list and made a Starter Pack for Women+ in geo & EO - very broadly. I'm reminded how lopsided the gender divide is still in our field when I get 1 woman follower for every 10 men. It's particularly noticeable right now. go.bsky.app/Ay1iTTe

It’s really hard to get a sense of scale for Dragonfly and folks are really used to toy drones so a lot of people assume it is much smaller than it is. So here I am next to a *half scale* model of our current design and holding an actual scale rotor that was used in wind tunnel testing 🧪🔭

A video intro of myself. 🌏🦘🌊🏄🏽💃🤖🐎📷 I work at UniMelb and I study and teach about physics of the ocean and climate. I'm also passionate about climate model development, scientific computing, and open source practices. (made w Miriam Pickard)

Global tropopause heights from this morning - spot the bomb cyclone (look for the curly elf hat). 🧪

we have a new pre-print out reviewing wind-blown dunes. we explain why dunes look the way they do, and classify them. lots of thought, debate, and time went into this one - hopefully you find it useful! eartharxiv.org/repository/v...

we have a new paper out led by @liorr.bsky.social on inferring martian surface wind and sediment pathways from barchan dunes. hundreds of thousands of dunes identified, then used to learn about near-surface climate - it's sooooo cool. check it out here: doi.org/10.1029/2022...

hi everyone!! posts here about geomorphology and climate. check out colin marvin's new paper on dune interactions: doi.org/10.1130/G512...
