  6. 🍞 NEW: Engineers in #HongKong mixed a simulated Martian rock with gelatin and engineered #yeast whose cells carry adhesive #proteins.

    Pushed through a nozzle into cold, near-vacuum conditions, the mixture freeze-dries into a porous foam. So far the test domes are only 45 mm tall, but the material reaches 10 to 12 megapascals in compressive strength, comparable to low-grade #concrete.

    “#Bigcats have a big impact. A long-term study showed that when mountain lions began regular visits to a small suburban preserve about 45 miles (72 kilometers) south of San Francisco, they changed the behavior of many other animals.
    Mountain lions (Puma concolor) started appearing with increasing frequency on trail cameras at Stanford's Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve ('Ootchamin 'Ooyakma) from 2015 to 2020. Researchers documented a corresponding drop in deer activity compared with the prior years of lower or absent puma activity. Vegetation surveys also showed that many woody plants deer like to eat or tend to trample, including young oak trees, began to thrive.
    These types of multilevel effects, called trophic cascades, have been studied primarily in large wilderness areas, particularly cascades caused by #apexpredators such as #wolves reintroduced into Yellowstone National Park...”

  14. A proposed development for a private property on Admirals Road will result in the removal of 33 #GarryOak trees. The #Esquimalt #Climate Organizers have started a petition to prevent this from happening.

    This petition asks the #EsquimaltCouncil to deny the current #development permit for the property and require it to be redesigned to allow for the #preservation of the Garry Oak and #DouglasFir #ecosystem. The removal of these #trees would have a large negative impact on #habitat and hydrology for the community, and will require 66 #replacement trees elsewhere as per Esquimalt’s #TreeProtection bylaw.

  22. 🪂 PARACHUTING BEAVERS
    Save the Day 🦫🥇

    After WW2, beavers in conflict with human neighbors had to be moved from suburbs to an Idaho mountains river basin.

    ✈️ No usual method of transportation worked in the dense slopes, so they attached spring-loaded boxes to parachutes, put in 76 beavers, and chunked them out of a plane.

    It worked. There is video.

    😲 Recent imaging of the beaver reintroduction landscape shows
    🔥🧯 wildfire impacts were reduced
    🌳 🌲 vegetation level was also higher

    🦉 Toxic Wastelands and Former War Zones Are Accidentally Becoming Some of the World’s Most Successful Wildlife Sanctuaries

    🔸 Some "involuntary parks" have been designated especially for wildlife
    🔸 Fish, birds, and sea mammals are among the wildlife supported by these areas
    🔸 Endangered species are reappearing

    In ecology, a disturbance is a change in environmental conditions that causes a pronounced change in an ecosystem. Disturbances often act quickly and with great effect, to alter the physical structure or arrangement of biotic and abiotic elements. A disturbance can also occur over a long ...

    “A landscape in central Quebec transformed suddenly in spring 2025 when a lake burst its banks and drained. Members of the nearby community of Waswanipi who use the area for hunting, fishing, and trapping learned of the curious incident in early May, after reports of a washed-out road. Further air- and ground-based investigations revealed that land around the lake had collapsed and that Lac Rouge had emptied..."

  29. Since the early 1980s, scientists say, #CoralBleaching events have increased in frequency & severity as the burning of #FossilFuels drives up the #planet’s #temperature. #NOAA documented the first global #coral bleaching event in 1998 & the second in 2010. During the previous global event, between 2014 and 2017, 68% of the world’s #CoralReefs experienced bleaching-level #heat stress.

    #Survival of Eurasian #lynx in the human-dominated landscape of #Europe

    #ConservationBiology

    #IllegalKilling was the main cause of #mortality (33.8%), and mortality rates were similar in protected and hunted populations (8.6% and 7.0% per year, respectively). Due to the low natural mortality rates in protected and hunted populations, #anthropogenic causes of mortality are likely close to additive, such that maintaining or increasing refuge #habitat with little human #disturbance is critical to lynx #conservation.
