Just heard that netCDF viewer #ncview by David W. Pierce is no longer available from source b/c California Assembly bill about age verification. This might likely affect bsd/linux ports at version updates. Not great. 😶 cirrus.ucsd.edu/ncview/

📐🎉 150 years of Geodesy in Bonn! This year, the Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation at the @unibonn.bsky.social celebrates its 150th anniversary. 🗓 Tue 21.04.26 | 17:00 CET 📍 Nußallee 17, Bonn Registration: www.igg.uni-bonn.de/de/anmeldung More: www.uni-bonn.de/de/veranstal...

Very convenient data, esp. if you otherwise have none. We tested the data extensively vs terrestrial water budgets and even against data from the @esaearth.esa.int CCI sea level budget. I might give it a try also as GRACE 'gap filler'

🦋PhD work "Multiannual Reconstruction of the Butterfly Effect" 😉 We observe a clear trend in opacity, which might be an early indicator for the human impact on kitchen climate. Formed over 3yrs during lunch times +colleague with hunger for Marzipan (wasn't me I swear!).

Delivering on its mission! Three months into its life in space, @esa.int ’s HydroGNSS is already hard at work. The mission tracks Earth’s water cycle by analysing navigation signals reflected off the planet’s surface. Curious to see some examples? 🔗 www.esa.int/Applications...

QGIS users: ATTENTION! We now have a convenient #QGIS plugin to integrate the latest version of the Scientific colour maps directly into the style manager: plugins.qgis.org/plugins/scie... Shout-out and big thanks to Silvain Théry. ⭐️ Happy mapping, everyone! #UseBatlow 🐡

Paper alert 🚨📢 GRACE-like reconstruction of terrestrial water storage, starting from the 1980ies(!). Thx to #openaccess PubFund of @unibonn.bsky.social find it for free at Copernicus ESSD via doi.org/10.5194/essd... This work by PhD cand. C.Hacker is part of @crc1502-detect.bsky.social 1/n

The Two Line Element (TLE) format, which has been used to describe orbits of unique satellite objects for decades, is running out of available numbers within its standard. It appears many users are still not aware or have not switched to alternatives. (me too tbh since I'm not running op. services)

Resistance was futile. I have been assimilated 🦳🎹 #carnival #karneval #bonn

If you write about the messy reality behind "free" internet services: we're seeing #OpenStreetMap hammered by scrapers hiding behind residential proxy/embedded-SDK networks. We're a volunteer-run service and the costs are real. We'd love to talk to a journalist about what we're seeing + how […]

Launch of a brand new @egu.eu journal called Earth Observation. Fully open access, publicly peer reviewed and edited by leading experts in ther field. Check out the scope, editors and options. www.earth-observation.net/home.html #openaccess #noprofit #earthobservation 🌍🛰️📡🌊🧊

First comprehensive review paper on assimilating GRACE/-FO terrestrial water storage data into hydrological and land surface models - by Anne Springer @aquasong.bsky.social et al, just accepted for HESS egusphere.copernicus.org/preprints/20... #CRC1502 #DETECT

More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland. They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

This call is open to all scientists, regardless of nationality or institutional affiliation, who are actively engaged in research in any of the following fields: Astrophysics, Heliophysics, Planetary Science, or Earth Sciences. Details: www.issibern.ch/call-for-pro...

The European Space Agency has cancelled a call to procure commercial cargo services to the ISS, citing “programmatic adjustments.” europeanspaceflight.com/esa-cancels-...

A year and a half ago, 2024-06-06, we went over Catalog Number 59999. Yesterday, we passed 66999, meaning we have less than 3,000 catalog numbers left. At the rate for the last 1,000 (55 days), we have 165 days left or until 2026-05-24. Time is quickly running out to prepare.

We wish you well, fellow Sentinel! With a gentle push, #Ariane6 has released the Copernicus Sentinel-1D satellite to orbit where it will begin its amazing life of scientific discoveries. Keep in touch! 📡🛰️

🛰️ Check out this new publication from our members @makankaregar.bsky.social and @funwithgps.bsky.social on GNSS hydrology, integration between GNSS hydrogeodesy and GNSS remote sensing. It focuses on three GNSS capabilities: reflection, positioning and transmission. 📝 doi.org/10.1016/j.xi...

Publication Alert! Check out this publication on the development of a global gridded dataset from irrigated and rainfed cropped area from 2000 to 2015 for 23 crop classes by our member Stefan Siebert. Congratulations on the work! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Lunar eclipse tonight, S of Bonn, Germany. Best part was to see how many parents with children came out and patiently waited to observe! [Pentax K1, in-cam multiexposure every 2m10sec]

Cooking with 15" etopo22 and @wmo-global.bsky.social / GRDC vectors for @crc1502-detect.bsky.social . Rivers truly are lifelines of the water cycle.
