  5. @praetor I think #FDR and #Churchill’s rhetoric to #Hitler and #Japan was pretty aggressive. But it was precise in what it promised, well written, grammatically correct, and consistent. Nothing like our president so called #POTUS

  10. Guten Morgen - Tässle Kaffee ☕️?

    Heute vor 80 Jahren, am 19. September 1946, entwarf der im Krieg erfolgreiche, aber dennoch gerade abgewählte Winston Churchill (Tory, UK) während seines Urlaubes in der Schweiz 🇨🇭 an der Universität Zürich die Vision von „Vereinigten Staaten von Europa“. Dieses sollte von Frankreich 🇫🇷 und Deutschland 🇩🇪 ausgehen, aber Churchill sah das Vereinigte Königreich (UK) 🇬🇧 selbst nicht darin.

    Inzwischen sind die EU 🇪🇺 Realität und es gibt Gespräche über eine „assoziierte Mitgliedschaft“ mit Kanada 🇨🇦.

    Warum das eine sehr gute Idee ist & auch geografisch, mythologisch und politisch Sinn macht, erkläre ich in diesem Blogpost. 😌📚🇪🇺🇨🇦

  13. The #Canada- #EU trade deal is already having an impact in #Manitoba

    Wheat is being shipped to Europe for the first time since 2020 from #Churchill.

    “Arctic Gateway — a group of northern and Indigenous communities that bought the port from a US company — says the port on Hudson Bay will see its most diversified shipping season in history this year.

    A vessel is loading zinc & Churchill's first-ever potash shipment this week. And a resupply vessel bound for #Nunavut.”

    “Winter roads are essential transportation links for many remote northern communities, but their safety and reliability depend strongly on snow conditions and ice growth. In this study [link above], [the authors] evaluated a fully polarimetric, dual-frequency Ku- and Ka-band radar approach for retrieving snow depth across landfast sea ice, lake ice, and tundra.
    Using field measurements near Churchill, Manitoba, and Resolute Bay, Nunavut [Canada], [they] found that the approach produced snow-depth retrieval bias and error within 3 cm over landfast ice, with encouraging Ku-band performance over frozen ground as well. [They] also developed an interface-detection approach for lake ice that can retrieve both snow depth and ice thickness - a promising direction for characterizing conditions relevant to winter-road planning and safety…”

    “Winter roads are lifelines for remote northern communities. Built over land, lakes, rivers, and sea ice, these travel routes are increasingly vulnerable to warming temperatures and variable precipitation. To ensure safety and adapt to these changes, operators require high-resolution monitoring of snow depth across these diverse surfaces, as natural snow accumulation dictates ice growth rates, route viability and road stability. This study extends our polarimetric radar method, previously demonstrated on pack ice, to landfast sea ice, tundra, and frozen lakes and assesses how well we can retrieve snow depth over these surfaces. Results indicate consistency with earlier sea ice analyses, maintaining a mean snow depth retrieval bias and error within 3 cm over the landfast ice. Promising performance is also found over frozen ground using Ku-band (mean biases less than 6 cm). To address the specific challenge of lake ice, which includes strong returns from the ice/water interface, we present a new interface-detection technique that simultaneously retrieves snow depth and ice thickness. While current validation focuses on undisturbed snow, this approach could provide a path forward for characterizing the cryospheric environment in a way that can directly support the optimization of winter roads…”
