🌊⚠️ "Understanding and predicting marine-terminating glacier instability presents one of the greatest challenges to forecasting future sea level rise" — case of the Hektoria Glacier in #Antarctica, which retreated ~25 km from Jan 2022 to March 2023. Research briefing @nature.com ▶️ rdcu.be/eN9DL

3/ Ice shelves resist the flow of continental ice to the sea. If warm ocean waters weaken the ice shelves, more ice will reach the ocean and melt, causing sea level to rise. Ocean measurements are critical to determine how much and how fast. ▶️ aapp.shorthandstories.com/opening-the-...

1️⃣ Over the last 30 years, #Antarctica has lost 12,820 square kilometres of grounded ice – larger than the area of Greater Sydney – a new study led by @ucirvine.bsky.social reports. [animation of satellite images from @esa.int shows the evolution of cracks in the Pine Island Glacier during 2019]
1️⃣ Antarctic sea ice during winter didn’t use to change very much from year to year. But in recent winters, the extent of ice has crashed to unusually low levels. Which begs the question: what controls how much sea ice can form in winter? 🌊 plot by @edoddridge.bsky.social
1/ More than 600km above 🌏, NASA's PACE (standing for Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, Ecosystem) satellite is in a polar orbit. Covering the globe in about two days, it gathers data on ocean colour, aerosols, and clouds enabling the study of climate change and ocean ecosystems.
4/ Turns out it's all to do with how the wind interacts with the ocean. The weakening of winds leads to less ocean water being pushed toward the Antarctic coast, which allows warm water that sits below the surface to flow in that direction instead. The ACCESS-OM2-01 model runs from 1958 to 2018.

🌊 Ocean fronts are boundaries where different water masses collide. They cover about 1/3 of the global ocean but account for nearly 3/4 of total ocean CO2 uptake, absorbing about 1.8 billion tonnes of carbon each year. Research led @utas.edu.au ▶️ tinyurl.com/jtxddyt9 Anim: Kuroshio current by NASA

How do we close the gap between the world as it is and the world as it should be? Kindness and compassion alone won't turn around what ails us. But I'm a man of faith, and sometimes that means believing in something others find unbelievable, and inspiring others to do the same.

Only Fox News still believes that the USA is currently the hottest country in the world with Trump at the helm. Maybe the USA is actually currently the hottest pedophile country in the world with the pedophile king Trump, at the helm.

Billionaires don't need a break. But Trump gave them one anyways ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ We can raise $4 billion in state revenue by taxing corporations and the ultra-rich, and use this progressive revenue to protect community programs, healthcare, and SNAP from cuts. Tell your legislators! bit.ly/emailyourleg

HODGES: Who’s been our enemy for the longest time? Russia. Why don’t we want Ukraine to crush them? This would solve Europe’s main security problem for two or three generations. We benefit when Europe is stable and secure. Importance of allies is something that’s not appreciated in MAGA mentality,
