nostr:npub1xes9xt8aw0lzfy0efa6eq30k9sjx5yac50fgfuu6l6ryl80vfdyqjxsfk6 I had exactly the same thought. The far north peatlands are expected to produce a lot of methane as they increasingly melt, and this would be a great tool for tracking that.
This is cool. The European Space Agency Copernicus #Sentinel #satellites can spot methane emitters with incredible accuracy. Can be a new tool to fight #ClimateChange.
Weekend #Plankton #Factoid 🦐🦠
Copepods (latin: oar footed) are the most abundant metazoan (multicellular) organisms on our planet. They live anywhere there is water: oceans, lakes, rivers, ponds, caves, pitcher plants (really), under polar ice, in tropics, even around the hot water near hydrothermal vents. Over 21,000 described species with wildly diverse shapes, avg 1-2mm length in 3 groupings: calanoids, cyclopoids, harpacticoids. Impressive swimmers.
Spongebob's S.J. Plankton is a copepod.
