New research from a team led by University of Galway shows that cooling during the last Ice Age over parts of the North Atlantic was up to 3˚C more severe than estimated. In a new study published in Nature Communications, Dr Audrey Morley, lecturer in Geography and Ryan Institute and iCRAG scientist at University of Galway, reveals how polar climate history can be detected by analysing the shells of foraminifera - microorganisms no bigger than a grain of sand. The scientists involved in the project describe the research method as invaluable, as it can be applied to new and previously published datasets worldwide to re-evaluate the magnitude and geographical extent of marine polar climate change.

Earth Science Week runs from October 13 - October 19 and we can't wait to participate. This year's theme is "Earth Science Everywhere," so what better way to illustrate this than with a moment of calm and reflection by a leaf-strewn stream? While Earth Science includes all fields of natural science relating to our planet, we want to focus on geology this week. How does the South Carolina Sea Grant Consortium relate to geology? Geology—the study of the Earth, its materials, structure, processes, and history—is deeply tied to our waterways, coasts, and oceans. Stay tuned to discover some of our many geologic-focused programs, partnerships, and member institutions that help make the S.C. Sea Grant Consortium what it is today.

Earth Science Week 2024 begins on Sunday! Make sure you have access to all the essential information, resources, and opportunities - during the celebration and all year long - by following Earth Science Week on LinkedIn! #EarthScienceWeek #Geosciences #ESW2024 #EarthScience #Science

How do you get young people interested in geology and earth sciences? How about building a video game to teach them! Love how we're approaching engaging the next generation of earth scientists!

Visible Geology is LIVE now!!!!!! I'm on vacation right now, but I cannot wait until I'm back to announce that the new Visible Geology has been launched! There are so many cool things in the final version, please check out. I'll be posting more about it when I'm back from vacation❤️ For now, please check out this post from Rachel Murtagh #visiblegeology #stereonets #modeling #educational

The new release! #VisibleGeology, from Seequent. I'm thinking of using this to illustrate some basic concepts for my students this Fall Semester (Physical Geology). Do you use Visible Geology (or similar software) in your geoscience outreach, teaching, and/or mentorship efforts? If so, I'd love to hear about your experiences and what kinds of activities you've used with your students. Thanks! 🥾⚒️🪨💪 #futuregeologists #geoscience #education

The Earth Sciences are the underpinning of the way we take care of this planet for the future. The 2024 theme of American Geosciences Institute's Earth Science Week, “Earth Science Everywhere”, highlights the widespread influence of geosciences across STEM disciplines and the humanities. Check out this short video from GSW’s board and staff highlighting the importance of Earth Science. #geology #earthscienceweek #sustainability #geoscience https://hubs.la/Q02T6pkV0

Happy Earth Science Week! We’re excited to celebrate this week by clearing up some common confusion about Earth science, and geoscience. Earth science is a broad term that refers to the scientific fields that study planet Earth. This includes meteorology, oceanography, and geology (to name a few). Geoscience is an integrated approach to studying the processes that form and shape the Earth’s surface, the natural resources we use (such as helium and potash), and how water and ecosystems are connected.

Thrilled to share my poster presentation on 'Investigating the Influence of Atmospheric Blocking Morphology on Predictability' at European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2024! It was an enlightening experience to delve into the complexities of extreme weather phenomena. Grateful for the insightful comments and discussions received during the session 'Extremes in Geophysical Sciences: Drivers, Predictability, and Impacts.' Looking forward to incorporating these valuable insights into future studies. #EGU2024 #ExtremeWeather #Research
