(Posting in my personal capacity.) Journalist Steve Baragona was so invested in shooting
river-cleaning #mussels that he ended up falling into the mud. Don’t worry! He is fine and our story about these important #mollusks is coming out later this week. Stayed tuned! We cover #environment and #science . Follow us on social media platforms. -
#Fouling means that #sessileanimals as #crustaceans or #mussels attach themselves to non-living #underwatersurfaces as #shiphulls. According to Capt. Raghu Sharma (2026), this particularly affects ships beyond the #StraitofHormuz due to #warmwaters and #highsalinity. It increases #hydrodynamicdrag leading to higher #fuelconsumption (M. Tadros et al. 2022).

Some #UnsolicitedNoods coming at you hot and ready, as the gods intended. Cheers friends.
Been a while since I had a bowl of #ramen, an overdue treat. This bowl of #NongShim Spicy Seafood noodles, less 1/3 of the brick, featured a bunch of shredded #cabbage, #scallions, #mussels, #sardines, #kelp, #radishes, and #cilantro.
Noodly goodness, I left you for too long. Never again.
