New research to be presented by Megan Donaldson @nichinstitute.bsky.social at #AGU25 examines feedbacks among plants, herbivores, fire, and rainfall in the Serengeti. Comments from Monica Bond @ University of Zurich & Wild Nature Instititue, story by @beccapox.bsky.social. eos.org/articles/tra...

Cooler, relatively high-latitude marine environments may have been refuges for species escaping volatile climate conditions during “The Great Dying” 252 million years ago, new research suggests. #AGUEos

Tsunami early warning systems offer important information about impending waves. New systems, like one that uses prompt elastogravity signals (or PEGS) can increase the timeliness and accuracy of warnings. For more, check out Temblor's latest, by @beccapox.bsky.social temblor.net/earthquake-i...

Natural plants may be getting less nitrogen than we thought, which could be interfering with their ability to uptake carbon dioxide. eos.org/articles/nit...

Does the atmosphere harbour a resident, growing microbial ecosystem? ⛅ Our @jgrbiogeo.bsky.social article is covered in @eos.org access via the link below 👇 @drmartinezrabert.bsky.social @mioceanologie.bsky.social @cnrs.fr @cnrsecologie.bsky.social @cnrs-insu.bsky.social

Temblor's latest, by @beccapox.bsky.social, looks at how modeling of slow-slip earthquakes can also help scientists understand slow-moving landslides, a common hazard along the U.S. West Coast. ⚒️ temblor.net/earthquake-i...

Good news: A new study by @annapappp.bsky.social @mit.edu and @kimberlyoremus.bsky.social @udelaware.bsky.social suggests that bans and fees on plastic bags are successful in reducing the number of plastic bags that end up on beaches. eos.org/articles/pol...

The behavior of this river in Bangladesh may be more predictable than previously thought.

Understanding the duration of the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum could help scientists better understand the potential effects of modern anthropogenic climate change.

You’ve heard of heat waves. What about thirstwaves?

In December 2024, an offshore earthquake near the Mendocino Triple Junction triggered a tsunami warning along parts of the U.S. West Coast. This piece, by @beccapox.bsky.social, explores why the warning was issued and some confusion that resulted. temblor.net/earthquake-i...

Another new article in @temblorinc.bsky.social on tsunami warnings. Good info for Bay Area friends! temblor.net/earthquake-i...

New article this week—lost dogs! Magnets! 🐕‍🦺🧭

@beccapox.bsky.social's latest piece for Temblor explores a new metric to better quantify just which countries are most vulnerable when a major earthquake strikes -- earthquake fatality load. Topping the list: Ecuador, Lebanon, Haiti, Turkmenistan, and Portugal. ⚒️🧪 temblor.net/temblor/new-...

For temblor, @beccapox.bsky.social talked with scientists about a new study of the Cascadia Subduction Zone. In this work, the team imaged the megathrust in unprecedented detail. Findings can illuminate the risk posed to coastal communities by "the really big one" ⚒️🧪 temblor.net/temblor/clea...

A new study highlights how predominantly minority neighborhoods in Los Angeles — and especially those with Black populations — will be most affected in the aftermath of a large earthquake. Science writer @beccapox.bsky.social dives into this work, presented at AGU, for Temblor's latest.
