Finished the week at Churchill College celebrating Women in STEM, meeting more impressive women at all stages of their careers

Emma Boland@emmaboland· Mar 6

What a week getting ready to celebrate Int Women's Day! I started the week at the British Embassy Vienna, where I had the pleasure of meeting Ambassador Lindsay Skoll over a G&T. I joined an inspirational panel of women to discuss the green and tech revolutions at Austrian Academy of Sciences.

Cartoon of a large conference theatre with a 'Climate Summit's banner. A speaker points to a slide with a bullet list: 'energy independence; preserve rainforests; sustainability; green jobs; livable cities; renewables; clean water, air; healthy children; etc. etc.' A man in the audience stands and asks: 'what if it's a big hoax and we create a better world for nothing?'.

So good to be back as a visiting fellow to the @whoi.edu GFD Summer Program 😎🌊 The program has been running for over 70 years and is largely funded by the NSF #standupforscience

Do you have a teen interested in a career in polar science? 😀🌊🇦🇶🧊 Check out the @bas.ac.uk 2025 Virtual Summer Work Experience Week! Open to UK residents aged 15-19 sites.google.com/view/ctcport...

Interested in how the ocean works?🌊 Want to find out more about how the wind, sun, sea ice and more impact nutrients in the Southern Ocean?🦠 Come do a PhD with me @bfcastro.bsky.social and others at @bas.ac.uk 🇦🇶 and @unisouthampton.bsky.social via the IGNITE DLA (ignite-dla.soton.ac.uk).

Advry for Funded PhD opportunity as part of the IGNITE Doctoral Landscape Award at the University of Southampton. Title: "What are the physical controls on nutrients in the Southern Ocean?" There is a 3D cutout diagram of the Southern Ocean with arrows indicating physical impacts on SAMW (Sub-Antarctic Mode Water) as well as the flow and mixing of nutrients. Text: "Nutrients from the Southern Ocean are fundamental to global ocean ecosystems and carbon uptake. The project will use a combination of data from different ocean models to figure out the physical drivers of the amount of nutrients in the Southern Ocean and the paths they take to get there. Supervisory Team from the British Antarctic Survey and the University of Southampton." There are thumbnail pictures of each of the Supervisory Team: Emma Boland, Biéto Fernandez Castro, Dave Munday, Yohei Takano. There are logos for the British Antarctic Survey and associated projects BIOPOLE and BIOCARBON.

What at week at #Challenger2024! The science has been amazing and the non-science bits too. Kayaking, ceilidh-ing, beautiful sunshine and sunsets, Oban has been 😍🌊

Back from holiday in Corsica and can thoroughly recommend this book on Climate Modelling. Lots of stuff I knew obviously but a nice piecing together of the history of the field and I learnt lots of interesting background I didn't know! By Steve Easterbrook, CU Press

Foreground shows the book 'Computing the Climate: how we know what we know about climate change' by Steve Easterbrook. Background shows a beautiful beach in Corsica: yellow sand, turquoise sea and a blue sky.

Using unsupervised classification to examine climate model output? Here's a new method for avoiding overfit when you have more than one ensemble member. With Erin Atkinson at U Toronto and @danijones.bsky.social doi.org/10.1017/eds....

Visual abstract titled "How to avoid overfit in unsupervised classification of climate model data". There are diagrams with schematic representations of classification models. Text boxes say: "Introducing the Ensemble Difference Criterion" and "We present a new method for determining the maximum number of classes by demanding robustness in class properties across ensemble members."
