  1. This tree has fallen, but it's still doing a lot for the ecosystem. Slowly decaying, providing food and shelter to thousands of species. Forests should be left unmanaged wherever possible.

  13. More brown ubiquitous mushrooms. Probably not edible. And neither is their inhabitant, a dumbledore (Geotrupes stercorarius), though it might eat something that you've left in a forest even though you shouldn't have.

    Edmunds Marsh, Washington State, is a 22.5-acre (9-hectare) urban wetland. While I was there taking pictures, I ran into a reclamation crew removing invasive Wizards Nightshade (Circaea lutetiana). We had a long talk about the stream ecosystem there. Apparently, if it isn't cleared out, the area turns into a bog. He pointed to huge hedges of the plant smothering other plants further in, but in an area where he wasn't allowed to go.

    India Safari Holiday Tours: A Complete Guide to India’s Wild Side

    India's wildlife is not the wide-open savannah of Africa, and that is exactly what makes it so fascinating. Here, a safari can take you through sal forests, dry grasslands, bamboo thickets and wetlands where a tiger may appear without warning. For travellers planning an India safari holiday, the experience is about far more than spotting a Bengal tiger. It can include leopards, sloth bears, wild dogs, crocodiles, hundreds of bird species and the landscapes and communities that surround […]

  27. Widespread Landslide Activity in an Extreme Wet Season and Implications for Regional Sediment Management, Eastern San Francisco Bay Area, California

    H/T @amy East, Ph.D., P.G. | Researcher integrating geoscience and climate-change preparedness
    “[This paper (link above) is] a collaboration with [the H/T’s] colleagues from [the] USGS Landslide Hazards Program, who mapped over 8,900 landslides in the eastern San Francisco Bay Area during an extreme wet winter.
    How much sediment does such an extreme winter produce, from landslides or in stream discharge? How does that compare with long-term sediment production and landscape denudation rates?
    [They] f[o]nd that landslide sediment mobilization is comparable to long-term denudation rates, emphasizing the role of extreme events in long-term sediment production. However, one extreme wet year has a negligible effect toward counteracting ongoing problems of sediment deficit in San Francisco Bay: to keep pace with sea-level rise, extreme wet conditions would need to occur in 50 out of the next 75 years…”

    "PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY: Watersheds will likely produce more sediment in a warmer future with more extreme rain, primarily through landslides in steep terrain. This study examines how an extremely wet season affected sediment production and transport in the eastern San Francisco Bay area, California. By mapping and measuring 8,928 landslides, [they] found that rare, extreme rain conditions are likely responsible for the vast majority of long-term hillslope erosion rates in this region. However, due to long residence times for sediment on hillslopes and in stream channels, a maximum of 1%–2% of that newly mobilized landslide material could have potentially contributed to sediment carried by streams into the Bay that year. Even extremely wet years cannot provide enough sediment for Bay wetlands and shorelines to keep pace with rising sea levels. To meet the demand for sediment in the Bay, such extreme rain and sediment production would need to occur in most years, which is not realistic. To restore wetlands and protect shorelines, managers likely will need to supplement the coastal system with repurposed dredged material…”

  28. 📰 NC Coastal Habitat Protection Plan Update Begins

    🌊 North Carolina environmental officials have started updating the state's Coastal Habitat Protection Plan (CHPP), a long-term strategy focused on protecting coastal habitats that support fisheries, water quality, and the seafood industry.

    🌿 The 2026 update is centered on three priorities: ecosystem-based habitat management, seagrass protection and restoration, and planning for long-term wetland changes along the coast.

    🤝 State agencies and stakeholders are helping develop draft recommendations that will eventually be released for public review, shaping future coastal conservation and resource management efforts.
