  1. The #Trump admin is dismantling a $368 million deep #ocean observation system put in place a decade ago to monitor #coastal #environments, #MarineEcosystems & powerful currents that affect the global #climate.

    The National Science Foundation [#NSF] said it would send ships in June to begin removing more than 900 deep-sea instruments anchored off Oregon, Washington State, Alaska, North Carolina, & an area between Greenland & Iceland known as the Irminger Sea.

  3. Osipova & Lin also evaluate variation in #paleobiodiversity between depositional #environments of the Szekou Formation. Species #richness and #density do not differ significantly between restricted and open #lagoon settings, contrasting with patterns reported for benthic #bivalves

  4. #Cancer #Bill raises hopes⚕️
    "a strong cancer #policy is ultimately #preventive -- it tackles #carcinogenic factors such as unhealthy #food, toxic #environments, & unhealthy #lifestyles.. While #Thailand has made significant progress in #treatment, it has done little on #prevention.. as residents in northern provinces are suffocated by #PM25 #pollution, a majority of #lawmakers (led by Bhumjaithai) voted against the long-needed #cleanair #law, citing its #economic impact"🤔

  6. Lichens indicate airquality and climateconditions. I found the #species below in #Jungfernheide #forest #Berlin. While #Parmelia #sulcata requires light, but is flexible, #Hypotrachyna #afrorevoluta needs warm, nitrogen-poor #environments and clean air. The latter is rarer in #Germany, but spreading eastward based on #globalwarming. D. Masson (2004) found it on #treetrunks and #branches.

  8. New paper by Valeria Vitale introducing the #Nature Selection Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (NS-ERQ) – a new scale to measure how people intentionally choose natural #environments to regulate their #emotions. 🌿🧠

  10. theguardian.com/environment/ng. I got condemned the other day for my allegedly "poor judgment" by a #humanist because I attacked this sort of thing, saying that Homo sapiens was, & IS, the most destructive #species that has ever walked on this #planet. Given the wholesale #destruction of #natural #environments, large-scale #pollution, & mass-extinctions of whole genera of #plants & #animals at our hands, so-called "humanism" is nothing other than arrogant #speciesism!

  12. #Scifi #environments are always cool, although they can be real torture to develop. Although things are coming together. Going to take a few weeks to focus on the individual items/panels, etc. #gamedev #indie #indiegame #game #blender #videogame #bar #nightclub #model #space

  13. RE: mastodon.social/@Snoro/1159418

    According to this article, an important growth peak of #increased #globalwarming has begun in 2023 and despite of a cooling down la Niña phenomenin remained close to a level, which the 2025 Paris Climate Conference has defined as border that should not be crossed. But it seemingly did.
    The world is occupied with wars, modern imperialism and a global trend to nationalism. I recommend more focus on serious climate action and the #future of our #environments.

  14. The Nipah palm (Nypa fruticans) has a trunk submerged beneath a layer of mud that spreads underground. This plant, which is native to tidal #environments such as coastal areas, swamps, and river estuaries, has many benefits.

  15. New research has shown, for the first time, how mixtures of commonly used #medications which end up in our #waterways and natural #environments might increase the development of antibiotic-resistant #bacteria.

  16. The Office of #Water works to ensure the safety of the nation’s #DrinkingWater & the #health of coastal & other aquatic #environments. Scientists in the office conduct & publish #research assessing how to keep water #safe for drinking & for recreational use, as well as analyzing environmental concerns related to #WaterQuality.

  17. "A new field study watched [rats] the way New Yorkers often watch each other: from a respectful distance and with digital tech. The findings shed light on how rats have adapted to city life—and how chatty they are."
