Tun-a in to hear Olly and Niamh chat with Craig Proctor about the bubbly underwater world of fisheries science! 

Across multiple decades, Craig’s career has led him from learning Indonesian in the classroom, to working as an international fisheries scientist in Indonesia, to being back in the classroom inspiring future scientists while encouraging them to keep up their language skills. His pathway took a few unexpected turns along the way, so join us to hear his fishy tale.

Ice shelves can be as large as a small country, so how can ocean waves and sea ice contribute to their catastrophic destruction?

This week, Dr Niamh Chapman and Dr Sophie Calabretto speak to multi-award-winning applied mathematician Associate Professor Luke Bennetts about wave science, sea ice modelling, and their link to catastrophic destruction of ice shelves on the Antarctic Peninsula.
