"We find that the likelihood of the occurrence of climate regime shifts significantly increases in the context of super El Niño events due to their remarkable climate perturbations. This higher probability is detected across various climate elements, such as surface air temperature, sea surface temperature, and surface soil moisture. In addition, we suggest that this boost effect of super El Niño events on climate regime shifts will be greatly amplified under future greenhouse warming."Xue, A., Geng, X., Jin, FF. et al. (2025).

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🦪🌡️ A #Stanford led study explains why #clams and #snails dominate modern shorelines while #brachiopods barely survived the #GreatDying.
Researchers measured #oxygen consumption in living #animals to show that slower metabolisms could not cope with warming, oxygen depleted waters 252 million years ago. The authors warn that today’s warming #oceans could trigger a similar ecological shift.

SOURCE: SOCIALPSYCHOLOGY.ORGTITLE: Scientists May Have Solved Mystery of Earth's Largest Mass Extinction
Source: Science Daily - Top News
Why do beaches today have seashells from clams and snails instead of brachiopods? A new study suggests that the answer lies in Earth's greatest mass extinction, when warming oceans and falling oxygen levels wiped out animals that couldn't adapt. Species with body plans and metabolisms better suited to the changing conditions survived and went on to dominate the seas, offering a glimpse of how modern marine life could respond to climate change.

"Closely spaced or overlapping El Niño events create cumulative cloud suppression. Each El Niño phase actively reduces low-level stratocumulus and trade-wind cumulus clouds over vast tropical and subtropical ocean areas as part of the Bjerknes feedback loop. When the next El Niño develops before full cloud recovery during intervening La Niña or neutral conditions, the albedo loss becomes progressively more persistent, producing the observed multi-decadal linear decline. […] Major El Niño periods (especially 2015–16 and 2023–24) coincide with accelerated albedo drops and incomplete recoveries."

@blogdiva It's imperative to spread the word of #BoycottAI
There hasn't been an exponentiating factor in destabilizing metrics, since the atomic bomb's detonation killing countless people.
If you can't do it for yourself, do it for our children/grandchildren.

C. M. Lowery et al. (2026) discovered a quick #recovery of #marinelife after the #massextinction ~ 66 Ma ago. They calculated a new #calibration using the #biostratigraphic #marker (#Helium-3 from 6 K/Pg boundary sites) and dated the #duration until the recovery of the #foraminiferbiozone of 3.5 k.y. - 11.1 k.y. after the boundary, instead of former theses ∼30 k.y..

#MassExtinction triggered the early radiations of jawed vertebrates and their jawless relatives https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.aeb2297
"from this biological havoc, known as the Late #Ordovician Mass #Extinction, came an unprecedented richness of vertebrate life. One group came to dominate all others, putting life on the path to what is known today as jawed #vertebrates... they only became dominant because this happened"

“It's a view of Mother Earth as we've never seen her, and it just might help us solve some our most existential issues.”
Yeah that would be great if humans would stop killing each other and focus on the climate crisis.

#ThackerPass #Protectors File First-Ever '#BiodiversityNecessityDefense' in #Nevada Court
While pursuing a '#ClimateNecessityDefense,' and making allegations that #mining company has violated their rights, their attorney said, 'They’re not criminals; they’re heroes.'
Bhie-Cie Zahn-Nahtzu: “#LithiumNevada is a #greedy #corporation on the wrong side of history when it comes to #EnvironmentalRacism and desecration of #SacredSites. It’s ironic to me that I’m the trespasser because I want to see my ancestral land preserved.”
By #ProtectThackerPass, #CensoredNews, March 26, 2024
"In a first for the American legal system, the lawyers for six people sued by Lithium Nevada Corporation for protesting the Thacker Pass mine are arguing a ‘biodiversity necessity defense.’
"The necessity defense is a legal argument used to justify breaking the law when a greater harm is being prevented; for example, breaking a car window to save an infant locked inside on a stifling hot day, or breaking down a door to help someone screaming inside a locked home. In these cases, trespassing is justified to save a life.
.
"This week’s filing states: 'Defendants possessed an actual belief that their acts of protest were necessary to prevent the present, continuing harms and evils of #ecocide and irreversible #ClimateChange.'"'We’re in the midst of the 6th #MassExtinction of life on Earth, and it’s being caused by human activities like mining,' said attorney Terry Lodge, who is representing the #protesters. 'Our lives are made possible by #biodiversity and #ecosystems. Protecting our children from pollution and biodiversity collapse isn’t criminal, it’s heroic.'
"Currently Earth is experiencing one of the most rapid and widespread extinction events in the planet’s 4-billion-year history.
"Biologists report that habitat destruction, like the bulldozing of nearly 6,000 acres of biodiverse #sagebrush steppe for the Thacker Pass mine, is the main cause of this '#6thMassExtinction.'"
