For any #postdoc researchers, incl. those who have lost #funding due to recent #grant #terminations, there are 2 non-federal #fellowship competitions currently open that we here at #UW can participate in:
(1) https://www.weillneurohub.org/rfp
(2) https://www.wrfseattle.org/grants/wrf-postdoctoral-fellowships/

Get in touch if interested in applying!

"With each flip from a glacial to an #interglacial #climate there have been sudden, sharp rises in atmospheric #methane, likely from expanding tropical #wetlands.

These great climate flips that ended each #IceAge are known as #terminations.

Full terminations take several thousands of years to complete."

A #macrophotography #photo of a #quartz #crystal and the #rock matrix it started to grow on. Projections and partial #terminations, as well as rock #inclusions give character and color to the otherwise milky #translucence or #transparent #color of pure #silicondioxide #SiO2.
It’s #interesting (to 🦊 Fox, the #photographer) that SiO2 is a clear analog of #carbondioxide #CO2. #Silicon and #carbon are both in the same #Group on the #PeriodicTable (#IUPAC #Group14 to physicists, #GroupIV). But on the #Earth, SiO2 #crystallizes. Under what #conditions does CO2 crystallize? What do CO2 crystals that have grown over #geologictime look like?
Sometimes 🦊 wonders odd things.
