Brought out from a discussion elsenet: would Earth now be warm enough to support large, #nonavian #dinosaurs today? This is a fair question, because as bad as global warming is—and it's going to get worse—we're still nowhere near the hottest times of the #Mesozoic.
The answer is, it was *generally* warmer than the present day, but #global #temperatures went up and down considerably, as you'd expect over such a long stretch of time—about 175 million years from the first dinosaurs to the #Chicxulub impact. Dinosaurs as a #clade did fine the whole way through, although of course with plenty of various groups dying out in the meantime.
Also, the planet has always had warmer and cooler regions. Many large dinosaurs lived comfortably in polar regions that had #climates comparable to the cooler parts of the temperate zones today. The idea that non-avian dinosaurs exclusively inhabited steaming jungles or baking deserts has been embedded by generations of paleoart, but it's just wrong. If the impact hadn't happened, they'd still be thriving.
That being said, #sauropods in particular seemed to prefer warmer environments, so their range might be a lot more limited now than it was then, and it's possible the ice age(s) would have finished them off. Other famous giants like #tyrannosaurs, #ceratopsians, and #hadrosaurs would still be widespread, and smaller ones like #dromaeosaurs ("raptors") would be as numerous as coyotes and wildcats are in our world.

#WHO #DG declares #mpox #outbreak a public #health #emergency of international concern {#PHEIC}, https://www.who.int/news/item/14-08-2024-who-director-general-declares-mpox-outbreak-a-public-health-emergency-of-international-concern
In declaring PHEIC, Dr Tedros said, "Emergence of a new #clade of mpox, its rapid spread in eastern #DRC, & reporting of cases in several neighbouring countries are very worrying. On top of outbreaks of other mpox clades in DRC & other countries in #Africa, it’s clear that a coordinated #international response is needed to stop these outbreaks and save lives.”

Molecular #epidemiology and #genetic #evolution of avian #influenza #H5N1 subtype in #Nigeria, 2006 to 2021, Virus Genes: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11262-024-02080-9
#Clade classification was performed using the subspecies classification tool for Bacterial and Viral Bioinformatics Research Center (BV-BRC) version 3.35.5. H5N1 Clade 2.2 was observed in 2006, with 2.3.2, 2.3.2.1f clades observed afterwards and 2.3.4.4b in 2021.

Avian #influenza virus #NA #stalk length & #HA #glycosylation patterns reveal molecularly directed #reassortment promoting emergence of highly pathogenic #clade 2.3.4.4b A (#H5N1) viruses http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2024.05.22.595329v1?rss=1
These observations led us to establish and validate hypothesis that pairing of avian virus HA & NA subtypes is not stochastic but is rather molecularly programmed by HA glycosylation & NA stalk length, modulating fitness & emergence of novel avian influenza viruses.

#Clade-defining #mutations in #human #H1N1 #hemagglutinin protein from 2021-2023 have opposing effects on in vitro #fitness and #antigenic drift http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2024.05.18.594815v1?rss=1
Surprisingly, the E224A mutation and not Q189E caused broader receptor binding diversity seen in clinical isolates of 5a.2a and 5a.2a.1, suggesting that receptor binding diversity alone may not be responsible for the phenotypic effects of the Q189E mutation.

Wikipedia's cladogram drawing function is incredibly useful and flexible for drawing and editing cladograms on Wikipedia taxon pages:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Module:CladeI'd love to be able to adopt this on my own website but I'm not tech-savvy enough to understand the code or how it works.
Can anybody help? Is it Python code? Is it open source? Is it possible to install it on a Wordpress website somehow?
