Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

A crescent Moon seen during the day, arcing from upper left to lower right of the frame. At lower centre is the full disk of Jupiter; the small dots to its upper left and lower right and Io and Ganymede, respectively.

Out today in Nature, our paper on the drivers of the record 2023 summer heating of the North Atlantic. Temperatures warmed to record levels in just a few months. The impacts on climate & ecosystems were severe. A thread on how this work came about and what we found.👇👇🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This is not the actual cover of Nature, just shown here for illustrative purposes. We did submit this figure for consideration for their cover. Print run in two weeks, we'll know by then if it gets used.

There’s a current that flows along the edge of Antarctica. It helps keep the warm water away from the ice, slowing down sea level. What will happen to it as the world warms? 🌡️ 🌊 🧊 1/

Antarctica has its own ‘shield’ against warm water – but this could now be under threat

The Antarctic Slope Current shields Antarctica from warm waters. But new research shows meltwater is speeding up the current, which could make it more unstable.

The perils of a postdoc #AcademicMentalHealth What people might be struggling with behind the scenes

This poster explores some of the common stressors that postdoctoral researchers face during their postdoc. Image shows "perils of a postdoc, mental health awareness' with a person climbing a mountain, surrounded by examples of mental health challenges.

Number 1: Compete or perish.
With extremely limited tenure positions, postdocs can feel pitted against one another to achieve a permanent faculty position.

Number 2: Need for independence.
The need for independence in order to apply for fellowships is high, but stepping out from under a PIs can be tough. Having a support to pursue an academic career from the PI is often essential.
With the increasing size of academic cohorts,

Number 3: Position instability.
The prevalence of short-term contracts can lead to anxiety and their inabilities to settle down in a particular location, having financial and personal impact.

Number 4: Alt-academia sell-out
The narrative often is that if you opt to choose an alternative career outside of academia you have failed and sold out.
Number 5: A star is born.
Corresponding author positions are often needed to show research independence but achieving this can be difficult without already having had a permanent faculty position.

Number 6: burnout or drop out.
The culture of research often implies that if you are not working 24/7 you are not passionate about research resulting in feelings of guilt and ultimately leaving academia.
Number 7: don't get stuck.
There is often pressure to not get stuck in a post doc and move on to the next opportunity else you may never make it.

Number 8: Global challenges.
The need to be mobile and get experience in different postdocs around the world is often emphasised. This can lead to culture integration issues and separation from loved ones

Number 9: teaching experience.
To progress in academia teaching experience is needed but opportunities to do so often very limited, ultimately affecting progression.
