When El Niño strikes in the Pacific Ocean, you might not expect fishermen off the coast of Senegal or Brazil to feel its effects. But they do, and in ways that are both surprising and complex, according to a new paper. 🧪 🌊

In the Arctic record temperatures and early spring have led to melting ice, glaciers and permafrost, among other things. Climate change happens faster here than any other place in the world. This makes it extremely important to observe greenhouse gas fluxes.🧪🌊❄️

If you want to understand climate change, look to Svalbard - Norce
Arctic experiences the highest increase in temperatures in the World. Therefore, climate researchers want to increase observation of greenhouse gas fluxes in the Northern regions of Norway.

Climate models can be a challenge to understand, but a new app from the NorCPM-team is using AI to make complex data understandable.
- The idea is that anyone could use it, says Eurico Noleto-Filho, a postdoc with the University of Bergen and the Bjerknes Center. 🧪

Research shows that by mid-century, even with moderate CO₂ emissions, the Arctic Ocean could be ice-free in summer.

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

Aristotle rationally deduced that women are less intelligent than men because they have fewer teeth. He arrived at this conclusion through a chain of logic that did not include checking to see if women and men have different numbers of teeth, which they do not.

Did you know the ocean is separated into layers? Water has different densities. Cold water is heavier than warm water. Freshwater is lighter than saline or brackish water. Because of this the ocean becomes layered. You can test this out at home with soap, water and other liquids🧪🌊
