This study is a big step towards a new benchmark deep sea temperature record. More to come….science.org/doi/10.1126/scie… – at Bunnik, Nederland

On January 11th I had my PhD defence on ‘Clumped isotope thermometry in deep time palaeoceanography’ in the senate hall of @UniUtrecht. #PhD #PhDlife #PhDone #clumpedisotopes #palaeoclimate #paleoclimate #foraminifera
ALT Dr. Ilja Kocken is standing on the stairs of the ancient Academy building of Utrecht University with his PhD diploma in hand, adjacent to his wife, with his two friends and paranymphs behind him. They are wearing suit dress, and behind them the promotor and copromotors and the members of the reading committee are dressed smartly, with professors in black robes with black square floppy hats. The beadle, a lady with a silver staff, is standing to the right.

NEW: In @ScienceMagazine today, our latest peer-reviewed research shows Exxon scientists predicted global warming with shocking skill & accuracy between 1977 & 2003, contradicting the company's decades of climate denial. THREAD.

Btw..this is not the #NewNormal. Since we are still on a warming trend due to continuing greenhouse gas emissions, future #heatwaves will be most likely hotter than this. This is just a heatwave in the transition to a real hothouse state… – at Wallingford, CT
Deep sea temperatures over the past 65 million years were much warmer than previously thought! This is important - with potential implications for our understanding of Earth System Sensitivity. Led by Nele Meckler @BjerknesBCCR, happy to be part of the team! – at Bunnik, Nederland
Such studies would not be possible without science program #IODP @ECORD_IODP @TheJR – at Bunnik, Nederland
Getting close to the @UUEarthSciences fieldwork finish line…and Almost #FossilFriday..trace fossil beauties on Zumaia Beach. Each layer a snapshot in time, capturing a moment on the seafloor in the Eocene hothouse… #geology or a piece of #art ? – at Zumaia, España
Come work with us on Paleoclimate @UUEarthSciences ! Assistant Professor in Earth System and Climate Sciences (0.8 - 1.0 FTE) uu.nl/en/organisation/workin… – at Zumaia, España
2nd week fieldwork. Zumaia, Geo Walhalla , working on a.o. the K-Pg boundary, transition from red marl to carbonate banks. The one big mass extinction that wiped the #dinosaurs off the planet.
Day 5: Lizarraga, on top of a ridge that was a coral reef 60 million years ago, looking out into what was the deeper part of the ocean. Thinking of the nice blue water back then does unfortunately not cool us down ..#Heatwave ..As bonus some spectacular Karst features..

Day 4: Moved westward, to Ainsa, famous for Eocene turbidite deposits. Land surface temps climbed up to above 50 degrees. Don’t burn your fingers on the rocks. #Heatwave continues. Is this what an average summer day looked like during the Eocene?
#ImageOfTheDay
The second (early) #heatwave of the year is ongoing in western Europe 🥵
➡️Many records 🌡️ have been broken in #France 🇫🇷 and in #Spain 🇪🇸
⬇️As measured by #Sentinel3 🇪🇺🛰️, on 14 June the Land Surface Temperature exceeded 53°C in parts of Spain ♨️
