A sub-field of science looks at whether the Atlantic ocean circulation #AMOC has weakened. Direct measurements suggest yes but only started in 2004. So people look at temperature and salinity data. A new study finds a robust slowdown fingerprint at 1000–2000 m depth. www.nature.com/articles/s43...

In 2025 Rocky Mt. glaciers in Alberta fared poorly. Here are several examples of glaciers that lost all snow cover. This leads to accelerated melting, thinning and fragmentation. A glaciers "income" is snow and this year was all expenditures (melt) no income. #glaciology #climatescience

I think all we can do is be kind to each other. The Obamas are true examples. Kindness defeats evil.

Striking animation showing the magnitude of glacier collapse since ca 1900 in the Alps! 🧊🔥 All the retreat you see here is caused by human activity, and it will only stop when the last cubic metre of ice has melted! 📈💧 📷 Photos: @glacionaut 🎥 AI Animation: @flashologo

Astrum Earth shows what Earth will likely look like when all the ice on the planet melts (sooner than you think).

Welcome back for the second half of this trip along the world's longest mountain-chain! This sea-mount is halfway down the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, but under *kilometres* (gulp) of water. Incredibly difficult to explore directly. But there's a fantastically clever way scientists can "see" it... 1/

OTD in 1859, Charles Darwin’s Origin of Species was published. He’d been working on a long treatise titled “Natural Selection,” but learning that Alfred Russel Wallace had developed a similar theory, he shifted toward a shorter “abstract.” 🌱🐋🧪 #histSTM #evobio

Volcano Hayli Gubbi erupted today in Ethiopia for the first time.

Here is a hastily constructed animated gif from different NASA satellites showing the progression of the Hayli Gubbi eruption. Note the tall ash plume spreading NE (right) and a lower, light tan ash flow(?) moving NNW. #eruption #volcano

It turns out that the great majority of MAGA Influencers are registered in India, Russia, Malaysia, Serbia, Bangladesh, Nigeria, et. al. This, revealed after X enabled a feature exposing locations of registered accounts. X quickly removed it. The MAGA-movement is much, much smaller than it appears.

I think Americans are realizing that democracy is a participation sport, and the the government is ours if we want it to be. I feel like we got complacent and hoped some other third party would do the work for us. Seems like we have to learn that lesson every generation.

[FOUNDER'S BRIEF - @rhettayersbutler.bsky.social] Belize has built an enviable brand as a small country taking on a big problem: how to keep the sea alive while sustaining the people who depend on it. Yet, on the water, the question lingers: are the reefs and fish showing it?

For sea creatures, plastic is often deadly. New research shows it takes just 6 pieces the size of a pencil eraser to kill sea birds. It’s the first time scientists have quantified how much plastic it takes to kill a bird, marine mammal or turtle. @susrust.bsky.social www.latimes.com/science/stor...
