"What a lark! What a plunge! For so it had always seemed to her when, with a little squeak of the hinges, which she could hear now, she had burst open the French windows and plunged at Burton into the open air." – Centenary of 'Mrs Dalloway' by Virginia Woolf

Our global study shows #peatlands in both their wet and dry extremes capture greenhouse gases while soil bacterial and archaeal abundances are low. Peatlands with moderate moisture levels globally emit #CO2 and #N2O gases, while #bacteria and #archaea flourish. doi.org/10.1038/s41598-025-92891-z

A European air force of 120 fighter jets could be deployed to secure the skies from Russian attacks on Kyiv and western Ukraine, according to a plan drawn up by military experts. 📷: A project of a protected air zone over Ukraine as part of Sky Shield

OTD in 1944 the Red Air Force carpet bombed Narva, then Red Army used artillery to finish the job. As a deliberate act, hundreds of civilians died & thousands were made refugees. We then repopulated it with Russians. Imagine something like this happening in the 21st century.

I had zero expectations for this meeting but holy f*ck

🌿 New Paper Alert: Newly Forming Peatlands in Aotearoa/New Zealand! 🌿 Our study shows peat has been accumulating in a recently deglaciated valley in the Southern Alps, Aotearoa/New Zealand, since ∼1949 C.E. As glaciers retreat & climates warm, new peatlands could emerge—key for carbon storage. 1/🧵

Vaiana 2 on ilmselt peale Lennart Meri "Hõbevalge" esimene mõjukas teos, mille loo tõmbab käima meteoriit. Eepiline ja samas lege meeleolu ka klapib. Seda veidram, et Eesti kinoposteritel sabatäht puudub... #Moana2

Kes januneb kinokunsti meistriteose järgi, siis Ridley Scotti Gladiaator II. Ainult mitte nõrganärvilistele, sest estetiseeritud vägivald on vähemalt James Bondist alates norm.

#GladIIator delivers. Ridley Scott’s direction, and Washington, Nielsen, Quinn & Co’s performances give us another on for the ages. Strength and honour for democracy!

Water is up in Congolese peat swamp forest, Epena, but hummocks are still relatively dry and aerobic. This might give a more varied response from carbon and nitrogen cycling than one might expect under a flood. #PeatlandN2O
