I was very sad to read that emeritus scientist died after short illness last week. He was always kind and encouraging to me personally and very good at communicating our science in general

'ANTARCTICA – 23 January 2023. Huge iceberg (1550 km²), almost the size of Greater London, has broken off the 150m thick Brunt Ice Shelf. It calved after cracks that have been developing naturally over last few years extended across the entire ice shelf, causing the new iceberg to break free. This occurred on Sunday 22 January during a spring tide.'

The RSS Sir David Attenborough sails on Sunday for the Antarctic from Hatwich. I hope my wife gets off it first, I’ve got fresh steak for tea tonight!
