  1. #Webinar - #Marsh and #Stream Explorers: A Treasure Hunt to Find Healthy Freshwater #Habitats in #Maine

    Apr 22 2026
    7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

    "Curious about what critters live in your local streams and freshwater marshes? Come learn about Maine Marsh and Stream Explorers, a collaborative #CommunityScience project between #MaineAudubon and the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (#MEDEP). This program trains volunteers to survey for #macroinvertebrates, or large #AquaticInsects, in streams and freshwater #marshes statewide. With many macroinvertebrates sensitive to temperature, #pollutants, and other environmental stressors, their presence or absence serve as an important indicator of overall wetland health. This data then becomes an invaluable screening tool for #MaineDEP to prioritize where more-indepth water quality assessments should be conducted.

    "In this webinar you’ll learn about what the Marsh and Stream Explorers project has accomplished and its impact on water quality monitoring statewide. We’ll look at our overall results, share our successes, and talk about future goals of the project. If you’re interested in getting outdoors, learning something new, and protecting your local watershed, this community science project is for you! Come learn more about how you can get involved. In-person field training for survey techniques to follow."

    “Congress has long authorized federal officers & their agents to remove suits brought against them in state court to federal court,” Justice #ClarenceThomas wrote.

  33. RE: mastodon.social/@arstechnica/1

    The lunar 🌙 base would be established through three phases, each of these three phases would cost on the order of $10 billion. The first of these, running through 📆 2028, is estimated to comprise 21 landings, putting a total of 4 metric tons of payload on the #Moon. Phase two, running from 2029 to 2032, is projected to entail 27 landings with a total mass of 60 metric tons. The final phase, from 2032 to 2036, will establish #habitats for long-term human 🧑‍🚀 presence
