  1. RE: mastodon.uno/@Umbertogaetani/1

    🌖🌊 Interesting new #NatureAstronomy paper on #Europa’s #subsurface #ocean:

    Ojha, Barik & Buffo argue that direct liquid-water transport from Europa’s deep ocean into shallow subsurface reservoirs may be much more limited than often assumed.

    “… [The authors] analysed one year of drip water monitoring data from 46 monitoring sites across six karst regions in southeastern Australia. By integrating fast Fourier analysis, cross-wavelet transform and change point analysis, [they] identified five characteristic recharge behaviours and developed a conceptual framework linking temporal drip dynamics with recharge mechanisms. [They] hope this framework will contribute to a better understanding of recharge heterogeneity in karst systems and support future groundwater research under a changing climate…”

    Why #Europa’s hidden ocean may be more difficult to reach than scientists thought
    A Rutgers scientist says shallow water on #Jupiter’s icy moon may not offer a direct window into its deep #subsurface

    • The NASA Connection: Antarctica serves as a "dress rehearsal" for space exploration. The high-pressure, chemically isolated environments of its subglacial lakes provide a direct parallel to the subsurface oceans of Jupiter’s moon Europa, making the continent the ultimate laboratory for testing theories on extraterrestrial life.

  9. @setiinstitute A great total view towards Europa is visible here.#Jupiter's #moon is subject to multiple #scientificinterests. One of them is represented by the NASA #EuropaClipper #Mission that launched in October 14, 2024. The #spaceprobe has different purposes. Besides the superficial ice crust it i.a. collects information about the #subsurface #ocean. Europa is one candidate for possible #extraterrestriallife.

    [broadly, a 'seismic' listening technique could help researchers map water movement, moisture levels in soil, with these researchers at Caltech have figured out a way to use vibrations from passing cars to see how much water sits directly beneath the ground’s surface…]

    "In the upper 80 cm of playa sediments, microbial communities were dominated by #Firmicutes. Below 200 cm, a different microbial community was discovered, dominated by #Actinobacteria... this community might have colonized the soil 19,000 years ago, before being buried by playa deposits"
