#MIT_WHOI student Nadége Aoki provides surface support in Europa Bay #StJohn, while advisor Aran Mooney recovers a drifting hydrophone. The recordings will provide the team with insights into how sound changes between healthy and sick #coralreefs. #USVI 📸: Danny Hentz | © #WHOI

#Ukraine’s Energoatom tells IAEA Ukranian teams have succeeded in repairing a power line needed to resume off-site power to #Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant; 1 of 2 damaged lines now fixed, plant to be reconnected to the grid tomorrow, nuclear regulator said bit.ly/3IcNKVY

A team of international scientists, including those from #WHOI, are recording ocean sounds and placing them in a digital library to spot new species and track ecosystem changes. The library has appropriately been named “GLUBS”. #WHOINews #OceanScience wsj.com/story/listen-s…

What is the risk of a nuclear accident in Ukraine? A radiation expert speaks from Kyiv. technologyreview.com/2022/03/25/104…

Who cares about George Lucas? I want to hear the rest of the pyroprocessing rant.

Shelling has caused a complete blackout in #Enerhodar and compromised the safe operation of the nearby #Zaporizhzhya NPP. This must stop & a Nuclear Safety & Security Protection Zone (NSSPZ) agreed immediately. An NPP can never be a pawn of war. bit.ly/3ROLXvx

Foreign-origin spent fuel in S Carolina? Perhaps less facetiously, a well-funded multilateral nuclear emergency response team resident in the European theater with assigned transport, personnel, command arrangements.

Right. As a heavy tweeter/content creator who is now maintaining BOTH a Twitter and Mastodon presence, here is a short guide to what I have set up, how to do it and lessons I've learned, for others. TLDR: It's been WAY less hassle than I expected thanks to tips from followers /1

No plans to leave for now, but if this space is no longer inhabitable, I can be found at [email protected]. Fun fact: our first dial-up internet account was on toad.net, run by Dave Troy when he was a small child.

1/20 Dear friends, I need to draw your attention to something super bad and super important (and it doesn’t originate from Russia for once). Last week the EU has taken a shockingly stupid and damaging decision to close down national corporate registers of beneficial owners 🧵🧵🧵

J'ai discuté de l'emprise nucléaire de la Russie sur l'Europe avec LeMonde: Il serait logique de sanctionner Rosatom, impliqué dans l'occupation de ZNPP, mais personne ne l'a fait.

Our #1 video of 2022 takes you behind the scenes as we splash down on a coral reef where #WHOI biologists, chemists, physicists, engineers, and students, are tackling the problems facing reefs. whoi.edu/best-of-2022 #givereefsachance! #BestOf2022

I think the WVU situation is actually much more serious than we think. I would like to articulate this, because (as others say) it is of national and international import, bearing on upcoming changes at Florida by Ben Sasse and in the UK. (1/x)

When Western-based researchers interact with Iranian officials, both sides naturally seek to understand and to influence the other. Twisting such conversations to imply collusion is a form of McCarthyism.

.Los Alamos National Laboratory’s Off-site Source Recovery Program has been retrieving #radioactive sources for more than 20 years, collecting and securing more than 40,000 unwanted or disused “hot” objects from all 50 states and 26 countries. cdn.lanl.gov/files/1663-32-…
