1️⃣🌊 Using a high-resolution ocean model to simulate the currents around the Denman-Shackleton ice-shelf system, @yuhangocean.bsky.social and colleagues make an important shift in how we think about ocean-driven melting in East #Antarctica. ▶️ aappartnership.org.au/melting-from...

🌏 Better models = better climate predictions. A new paper led by ACEAS PhD researcher Claire Yung (ANU) shows how a refined equation used in ocean models can significantly improve the accuracy of Antarctic ice shelf melt predictions. ➡️ antarctic.org.au/new-model-co...

New model correction improves predictions of Antarctic ice shelf melt - ACEAS
A new study led by ACEAS PhD researcher Claire Yung from ANU introduces a correction to ocean models that could significantly improve global sea-level rise predictions from Antarctic ice shelf melt.

I went to FRISP last month, my first international conference and so worth the long trip! I came back inspired to dive back into my research. Big thanks to Anna Wåhlin for hosting me (including a fun field trip to beautiful Bornö) and to IMAS travel scheme and AAPP for the support from home!

🌊 After more than 50 days away, the shipload of science aka the Denman Marine Voyage on RSV Nuyina has left the sea ice and is heading for home. (* there's always one in shorts! 😆) Follow what the #DMV has been doing at aappartnership.org.au/DMV/ 📸 Pete Harmsen/AAD

🌊 Like weather stations for the sea, the Denman Marine Voyage #DMV has installed three moorings off the ice shelf in East #Antarctica, to monitor ocean heat for the next few years before we come back to get them. From RSV Nuyina ▶️ aappartnership.org.au/moorings-sen... 📸 P Harmsen, L West/AAD

Day 26: Every day is a day to celebrate! Mar 21st is the World Glacier, World Poetry and French Bread Day. We celebrated all of them — learning the word “poem” in different languages (including Australian 😉), reciting poetry, writing glacier versions (ACEAS story) and eating French bread 🥖

Day 15: Some ups and downs, but we have a good starting point 💪 Benoit, Kaihe and crew successfully deploy the EM-APEX float with the help from different groups! I got the best spot to watch and successfully captured their smiling faces 😊 #DMV

Day 10: We tested the mooring sensors using a very old-fashioned way—radio. If the sensor was awake, we’d hear it sing with a bi-bi-bi sound over the radio. It was really fun, but we had to set an alarm to catch them; otherwise, we’d have to wait another half hour for the next signal. #DMV

Day 0: I’m thrilled to receive so many gifts, even though I have to return a large portion of them 🥰 🧦 ✖️ 4 🧤 ✖️ 8 ….. #DMV

I was hesitant about downloading yet another APP, but I’m surprised by the science party here. Hello Bluesky🌻! I’m here to share my voyage diary 🚢
