Check out this great new paper from @andybiggin and team in the @LivUniGeomag @LivUni on the dominance of the geomagnetic axial dipole on our magnetosphere. #geology #magnets #geophysics #earthscience @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

You heard of Quasi-Geostrophy, but have you heard of Plesio-Geostrophy? 🤪 This new paper describes a new mathematical model that we will use to explore interannual dynamics of the Earth's outer core. Tests being currently run! eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/1663…

Excited and delightful to start as a postdoc research associate at the @OxUniMaths in @UniofOxford joining the @WCMBlog and OCIAM group. I'll be working on mathematical modelling of cell therapies for liver disease funded by @The_MRC. More to come soon...

Check out our new paper on Parareal and Rayleigh-Benard convection: doi.org/10.1007/s00791-020-0…, with @StevenTobias7, @D_Ruprecht, @ChrisDaviesGeo and Jeff Oishi.

Delighted to see this paper come out from the mightily talented @shandypandy2. How does the parareal parallel-in-time algorithm fare when applied to Rayleigh-Benard convection? Our attempt at answering this question is here: link.springer.com/article/10…

Very happy to see this paper come out in @NatureComms. We asked the question: how fast can Earth's magnetic field change direction? The answer is "pretty fast" - perhaps up to 10 degrees per year if you're near the equator. A rather longer answer is here: rdcu.be/b5rQr

How to revise: As an editor and author I have seen many revised papers return to journals. Given effort, most go well (ie step toward acceptance). Some go pear-shaped. I’ve slowly improved and have an approach known by my group as the ‘Breakspear method”. Here is its essence
