My daughter's first Substack post - In our modern world of "spiritual shopping," many of us are engaged in a restless search for belonging—a symptom of cultural homelessness in a society that commodifies meaning but offers no real home.

The scale of the flooding in Western Queensland is phenomenal.
Here's a mosaic of MODIS TERRA imagery for 2025-04-04 with water extent in blue and a 600km scale bar for comparison.

I've been road-testing some #RemoteSensing #LandCondition indicators in #QLD:
🔴 RESTREND (decreasing groundcover relative to rainfall)
🟢 Annual vs Perennial grass (dominance of annuals)
🔵 Landscape Function Index (cover resilience)
Brighter colour combinations = reduced #LandscapeFunction

Amping up soil carbon: soil carbon stocks in California rangelands under adaptive multi-paddock and conventional grazing management
Adaptive multi-paddock (AMP) grazing is gaining attention for its potential to increase soil organic carbon (SOC), yet its efficacy on arid and semi-arid rangelands remains debated. Given the adapt...

Dollars in the dust: Is outback scrub really saving the planet?
The nation has made a multi-billion dollar bet that carbon locked in desert scrub will offset emissions elsewhere, but doubters are growing from scientists in the city to the farmers on the land.

Starting my posts here with a pretty (to me :) map of the first three PLS components of fractional cover time series against soil carbon plots, capturing the contrast between Mitchell Grass, Spinifex, and the Mount Isa Inlier. Next step: pump this through the brilliant www.pyshepseg.org library
