💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🌍🗺️ Scientists in #NewZealand led an international team to map the boundaries of a massive #underwater landmass.

By analyzing rock samples dredged from the ocean floor alongside satellite #data, researchers confirmed this crustal block sits distinct from #Australia. The resulting map provides a complete picture of how this continent separated from #Gondwana millions of years ago.

Comment des arbres africains ont conquis les forêts d’Asie du Sud-Est
🔸Les forêts d’Asie du Sud-Est figurent parmi les écosystèmes les plus riches de la planète : sur à peine 3 % des terres émergées, elles abritent plus de 20 % des espèces végétales connues

Australian biodiversity conservation and 'fighting the government.'

"A rare legal win for an ecologist over a violent confrontation with NSW loggers exposed years of intimidation from corporate forestry representatives and law enforcement ."

"In environmental science circles, state surveillance and persecution of an ecologist whose findings refute or debunk state land management practices surprises no one. Last year, the International Science Council, a body representing more than 250 organisations, summarised that “the findings of environmental scientists … have long triggered censorship, intimidation, harassment and even violence when these challenge economic interests, political agendas, or ideologies”. It reported that scientists “have been physically attacked, wrongfully detained, and killed for their research and advocacy … threats and attacks are widespread in virtually all fields examining human impact on the environment”.

"A 2021 joint university study of Australian environmental scientists found more than half employed in industry or government “are routinely constrained in communicating scientific evidence on threatened species, mining, logging and other threats to the environment”. In some cases, “scientists self-censor information for fear of damaging their careers, losing funding or being misrepresented in the media. In others, senior managers or ministers’ officers prevented researchers from speaking truthfully on scientific matters...In all logged states, time spent fighting the government has overtaken the fieldwork time of ecologists and forest researchers."

The first #Jurassic #dinosaur ichnosite from Bolivia https://paleonerdish.wordpress.com/2023/09/01/the-first-jurassic-dinosaur-ichnosite-from-bolivia/ by @Ferwen

"The vast #Botucatú Desert, which ran from #Bolivia to #Brazil and had its counterpart in #Africa, occupied the center of #Gondwana. In this scenario, #sauropodomorph diversity patterns reached a peak similar with those of #theropods and #ornithischians."
