Biogeography (Earth sciences 🌍)

Biogeography is the study of the distribution of species and ecosystems in geographic space and through geological time. Organisms and biological communities often vary in a regular fashion along geographic gradients of latitude, elevation, isolation and habitat area. Phytogeography is the branch of biogeography that stu...

Quaternary (Geological periods 🌍)

The Quaternary is the current and most recent of the three periods of the Cenozoic Era in the geologic time scale of the International Commission on Stratigraphy, as well as the current and most recent of the twelve periods of the Phanerozoic eon. It follows the Neogene Period and spans from 2.58 million years ago to the present. The Quaternary ...

MyOcean (Oceanography 🌊)

MyOcean is a series of projects granted by the European Commission within the GMES Program, whose objective is to define and to set up a concerted and integrated pan-European capacity for ocean monitoring and forecasting. The activities benefit several specified areas of use: Maritime security, oil spill prevention, marine resources management, climate change, seaso...

A question for - what are the main differences between brinicles and salt fingers? I am quite familiar with salt fingers but not so much about brinicles. Do they also form via double diffusion ? Both are facinating to learn about, but I would like to learn more about their similarities/differences for an upcoming lecture...
See youtube.com/watch?v=BtQhb8sWJNw Also - if anyone knows of the paper about brinicles from the 1970s please help?

#introduction.
PhD student in #PhysicalOceanography in Gothenburg (Sweden), using both numerical modeling (NEMO model) and observations (ARGO, satellite products, etc) to investigate what drives the change of stratification type in the ocean (alpha, thermally stratified in subtropics - beta, stratified by salt in polar regions).

Interests: #buoyancy #equationOfState #thermalExpansion #openScience #opensource

I participated in open source projects (see reply):
