Hydrology Paper of the Day @irnasa.bsky.social on how contaminants are transported by hydrological processes characterized by drought conditions: the Onyar River Basin in Spain; linkages with groundwater; temporal changes in water chemistry; and characterizing reactive transport.

Letos lahko kar ukinemo prvoaprilske. Ga ni štosa, ki bi premagal realnost.

Happy #internationaldogday! Meet Athos, the best buddy for exploring natural places.

Overheard the earthling and her friends talking about "vintage websites," so I asked about it. "Oh, you know, the ones it's easier to trust. Like if they're copyright 2012 or they still have that 2005-looking design." We've taught the youth to distrust up-to-date information. Great work, AI.

I went from finishing my PhD, straight to the private sector and have thoroughly enjoyed my job for the last 19 years. There are so many opportunities outside academia, but I agree, non-academic #careers are not really discussed inside of academia. #AcademicSky 🧪

Here are some of the most curious and promising places to gather solar energy, according to the Swiss. 1. Why not do something with the unused space between Switzerland’s 5,300 kilometres of railway tracks?

We are seeing an increasing number of satellite launches where the owner, and even the owner's country, is not announced, contrary to the spirit (and arguably letter) of UN Res 1721B.

Wow! I’ve never seen anything like this 😱 This CCTV footage captures the powerful M7.7 earthquake that struck Myanmar in March. You can clearly see the dramatic shift in the ground. You need to watch it a few times to take everything in. Don't be distracted by the gate. Absolutely surreal.

How do past floods shape future preparedness? While flood-affected households expect future impacts, they don’t always see them as more severe. The key to better adaptation?
