Here's something from my own world. A little SEM image, as one can see, in BSE mode.
It shows magnesiowuestite crystals - the round shapes - which experienced wild swings in T & oxygen potential. So they multiply exsolved, and iron is reduced (the white patches). We use this as natural sensors.

? they are in the cited post?
maybe it is just a newfangled name for somethin well known as accessory

it seems you have chosen the start point of the Kinzhal in Latvia, or on a russian sub in the bay of Riga? :)
Good morning! wish u a nice sunday.
We know this problem, the traditional answer is deterrence by counterstrike capability, this does not help you though.

If u put someone with beard into an electron microscope, it makes <splosh> and the entire column is filthy bc the poor guy explodes in the vacuum

And here is a little flower stem of another of the high summer forest shadow flowers, this is Heksenkruid (Dutch) - circaea lutetiana. English call it apparently enchanter's nightshade. I have no idea how it gets to be by name linked with witchcraft. It just grows and enjoys life.

I was in the forest on sunday, the forest is on the inner rim of the dunes, where the sand filtered water wells up and runs into the polders. It is a line rich with beautiful summer flowers. Unfortunately im not so good with telephone fotoing. This is stachys sylvatica - Bosandoorn

This here is a stylized pluim (plume) from ECMWF/KNMI for De Bilt, NL (its just off the corner of your map which still has 40 C in Bruges).
Even the 90th percentile of runs doesnt go over 32 C.
This cannot be real (what you show)

Here is where the christian church tried to make Europe into a theocracy, and failed :)

oh damn. It is as always! If an idea finally crosses my mind that means a ton of people are already working on it :)
June 10, 2025 at 7:25 PM
that is also not fully true! nature has everything, even smooth and straight lines.
See this image which i made myself. its just a random one. In the world of crystals you have lots of straight lines! It's a wonderful field to study.

And they are already visible on Google Maps :)

i dont get out often anymore but today i went to the place, a short distance away from my house where there are orchids growing. It is a valley in a coastal dune belt. Clay accumulates in such valleys and the rainwater cant drain, that creates mini swamps in which these thrive. Now is their season.
June 2, 2025 at 5:08 PM
because its time of the year, and i happened to be out there here is a photo for you!
its an orchid, of course they had to build a road through the valley it grows in but it is undeterred. Just came up. sorry for bad telephone photo
June 2, 2025 at 5:02 PM
Ha thanks for naming the main plant :) Which i didnt know at all. i just thought i did know what was growing behind it, in the background, the white-4-petaled mini flowers.
like here this part of Lin's photo

hah those i know ! except we dont call them star of betlehem but rather bird's milk. Like in ornithogalum. And we have a different variety, o. nutans, with flowers hanging to the sides.

I saw a moth today. That is a nice thing, although many ppl dont like moths. They are mistaken though, Moths are unmissable.
This one is sometimes a little pest though, it eats brassica's.

As you wish! :) I tried my best in the grafic. (Hope it shows).
I reiterate that i dont want to oppose, rather have genuine q, if world followed RCP8.5, what would this mean for Europe? Do we even have such regional breakdowns?
May 2, 2025 at 3:46 PM
Hm where do they have cold spring? (Not here - we have a very run of the millspring)
Berkeley graph below March 2025.
Is it that little bit blue in the Bering?
April 22, 2025 at 8:29 PM
yes that agrees nicely with what i found in a random googling

it doesnt specify India, only 'Asia' but thats more relevant bc as you see, the overwhelming part is now Asia. What NA/EU do about SO2 seems to matter little now. I dont know how shipping is accounted. (Or if it matters at scale).

It's spring in my country, the Netherlands, and nice things are back :)
It grows just in the roadside.
