Sea ice in the Arctic and around Antarctica cool our climate, drive ocean circulation across the planet, and provide a unique habitat for polar ecosystems. Sea ice amounts have now fallen to their lowest since we started measuring them. This is not good. 🌊🥼❄️🧪 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Calling all my Polar Pals. A friend from Cornwall stumbled upon this photo of elephant seals that she found on the ground in while taking out the rubbish. I’m wondering if anyone can ID the location? I want to say it’s South Georgia but I’m not sure.

Yesss bruv. I’ve just successfully used a high performance computer (!!!) to run an AI model to detect seals from space 🫨🫨. It now takes half the time! My coding and tech skills have just levelled up and I’m feeling proud! #student #phd #AI #academia #conservation

You know what, it may not be perfect but the fact I’ve got an AI model detecting Antarctic seals from satellite images is pretty good considering it’s my 1st time coding in Python. Being able to apply AI to a real world problem for conservation feels great. #phd #AI #academia #conservation

1 degrees Celsius. I’ve been told that’s Jupiter above the crescent moon. Arctic winds bring us the most beautiful skies. #UK #arctic #weather #sky

It’s a Christmas miracle. I think I’ve somehow managed to make an AI system that counts Antarctic seals from space #phd #academia #deeplearning #AI

Passed through our little museum on the last work day before I clock off for the Christmas break. I keep forgetting that the earliest emperor penguin egg ever recovered is on the floor beneath my desk. #cambridge #Antarctica #penguins #christmas

3 hrs of discussion & debate with fellow trustees of the Royal Geographical Society done! As the only student in a room full of academics & industry experts the imposter syndrome usually makes me reserved. But at this meeting I said F it and made some suggestions that were received well! 1/2

Attending a great talk as a student and going up to the researcher at the end to tell him it how sick it was only to be met with “I’ve been wanting to meet you for ages!” is the academic equivalent of greeting the mandem with the perfect echo inducing dap. An excellent day for sure.
