A lot of interest on the interactions between vegetation 🌱and river hydro-morphology 🌊 this week at the World Congress of IAHR 💧 in Vienna! If you are into this, check out our open-source code published in SoftwareX Journal BASEveg -> sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

A massive >1 km long Barchan dune in the Kharan Desert (Pakistan) that is collapsing in to thousands of smaller barchans. 29.364284, 62.079228

New study finds: "due to technological trajectories set in motion by past policy, a global irreversible solar tipping point may have passed where solar energy gradually comes to dominate global electricity markets, without any further climate policies." nature.com/articles/s4146…

Congratulations to Peter Thornton – one of four scientists named as Oak Ridge Lab Corporate Fellows this year. Throughout his career, Thornton has increased ORNL’s stature in both the national and international #climatechange science communities. ornl.gov/news/cable-dun…

Scientific institutions must create--and sustain--new kinds of roles so that researchers can provide the deep public engagement necessary to respond effectively to the escalating impacts of #climate change. The status quo isn't working. [Thread: 1/n] nature.com/articles/d4158…

Cathedral, Mountain, Moon Image Credit & Copyright: Valerio Minato Explanation: Single shots like this require planning. The first step is to realize that such an amazing triple-alignment actually takes place. The second step is to find the best location to photograph it. But it

I had the pleasure to participate in last year's edition and I had a blast. I learned so much about the world of policy making that, as an engineer, I knew very little about. This is an amazing opportunity for those interested in translating energy research into actions.

We captured some really neat footage of lynx this past year on our cameras but this is definitely the coolest. In fact, might be the best video of a lynx we have ever captured, not least because the lynx decided sit right in front of the camera... Thanks to the Minnesota

🚨 New Paper Alert! 🚨 We proposed a novel approach to quantify lateral bedload transport in a large-scale lab experiment. The result reveals how submerged vanes effectively steer bedform migration to optimize sediment capture! #Sediment #Flumefriday 👉 ascelibrary.org/doi/10.1061/JH…

People are rightly ridiculing OpenAI over its accusations of Deepseek using their output to train their model, but most people are missing the truly terrifying implications here. The far more worrying aspect here is that OpenAI is suggesting that there are some cases in which
