Marine heatwaves affect the surface of the ocean and the seafloor, a new study shows. The researchers found that extreme heat can penetrate deep into the ocean, disrupting the ecosystems and biodiversity of the continental shelf. This could seriously affect the marine life, fisheries, and coastal communities that depend on these habitats. #marine #heatwave #seafloor https://theprint.in/environment/marine-heatwaves-dont-just-hit-coral-reefs-they-can-cause-chaos-on-the-seafloor-too/1764545/?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=HariTulsidas%2Fmagazine%2FArchetypes

The most recent Common Descent podcast is a good introduction to the #Mesozoic #Marine #Revolution:
https://commondescentpodcast.com/2023/09/16/episode-174-the-mesozoic-marine-revolution/

naturally, #clams are involved, both in their numbers, and in all the boring things that eat clams. : )

footnote: it baffles me that #rudist clams are so rarely compared to trash cans, but actually, a lot of them do resemble indoor trash cans. #Oscar the Grouch would fit in one nicely. And he was the rudist.

Encore un peu de #marine pour @Claire !

Y a l’amour, y a l’amuuuur, et puis y a l’amure. Oui l’#amure ! ça existe. Ce qui est drôle, c’est qu’au départ, c’est un bout pour amarrer une voile au vent. Mais comme on amarre plus rien (ou quasi) au vent, on a oublié. Et ce qui est resté, c’est que l’amure, c’est le bord au vent.

Bâbord amure : le vent vient de bâbord. On pisse et on dégueule à tribord.

Tribord amure : le vent vient de tribord. On pisse et on dégueule à babord.

Facile.

Extrait de la définition d’amure.

B. - P. ext.
1960):
«Direction d'un navire à voiles par rapport au vent d'après son amure. » (LE CLÈRE
4. Quand on courait des bordées le mousse allait se percher sur le gaillard avant pour
s'occuper du foc et de la trinquette munis d'une fausse écoute pour permettre de les
border plus aisément aux nouvelles amures. B. CENDRARS, Bourlinguer,1948, p. 171
Amure(s) à bâbord, à tribord, bâbord tribord amure(s).
Le vent venant de gauche, de droite (cf. ex. 2) :
5. À midi et demi, les frégates étant à trois quarts de lieue de terre, les amures à
bâbord, les quatre embarcations partirent pour aller faire de l'eau dans une anse
reconnue par M. de Langle. Voyage de La Pérouse autour du monde,t. 3, 1797, p. 208.
Avoir les amures à bâbord, à tribord.
[En parlant d'un navire] Recevoir le vent par la gauche, par la droite.
Prendre les amures à bâbord, à tribord.
Orienter le navire de façon qu'il reçoive le vent de gauche, de droite (cf. DUMONT
D'URVILLE, Voyage au Pôle Sud et dans l'Océanie, t. 5, 1843, p. 346).
Changer d'amures; changer les amures.

EU auditors: Offshore wind farms pose 'green dilemma'

European Court of Auditors (ECA) report:
- Offshore renewables must not lead to significant social or env. damage

- Impact on marine life still poorly understood

- Dutch "good practices": reef structures on the sea bed, wind turbines widely spaced (birds fly in between)

- Coexisting of fisheries and offshore wind hasn't been resolved yet

"Oceanographic Magazine is heralding the conclusion of its photo/photographer of the year awards, and the results highlight the otherworldy nature of our oceans.

The winners of the various categories had to beat out thousands of entries and come from all over the Earth, from quiet estuarine seagrass meadows to the blackness of the ocean Pacific.

“The range and quality of submissions entered into this year’s competition is special. From world-class drone images of megafauna to breathtaking underwater images of deep-dwelling ocean wildlife, the full spectrum of ocean life is brought to life like never before,” Will Harrison, editorial director of Oceanographic Magazine and the Ocean Photographer of the Year, said in an email sent to CNN Thursday."

The latest iteration of the EU's Critical Raw Materials Act establishes that 15% of domestic demand should be met by recycling by 2030, and 50% processed within the EU.

But the plenary text warned that "deep sea mining will most likely result in damage to ecosystems and a permanent loss of biodiversity," calling for a moratorium on deep-sea mining since the impact on marine ecosystems has not been researched.

Magazine Bay - Whakaraupō

A shot across the old marina for Whakaraupō , in the process of being removed.

A stone building, with stone buttresses is on the left. The wall below tagged taggily.

The sky is a moody grey and three boats remain in the marina.

Chill really.

A solid AF building stands above the waters of Magazine Bay in Whakaraupō.

It has some tagging on it, but the wall below, protecting it from brutally being washed away by the nasty water of the sea is really tagged.

And why do I always have to correct the from teh?

Depuis leur découverte à la fin des années 1970, les cheminées hydrothermales profondes ne cessent d’étonner les scientifiques par la #vie étrange qu’elles abritent. Toute une faune dite « chimiotrophe » y prospère malgré l’absence de lumière donc de photosynthèse. Mais ces milieux, également riches en ressources minérales, sont menacés par des projets d’exploitation minière profonde… Ce sera le thème de la rubrique « la vie » dans le numéro 3 de kīpuka !

Another remarkable application of #AI involves identifying dredging vessels and mapping global #sand mining activities.

This application gains critical significance in light of recent warnings from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Just a week ago, UNEP sounded the alarm about the excessive dredging of sand from the seafloor—an astonishing annual extraction of approximately 6 billion tons of sand from #marine #ecosystems.

Active-duty #Marine who stormed US Capitol on #January6th gets symbolic sentence: 1 hour of community service for each of 279 Marine Civil War casualties

Dodge Hellonen, 24, was one of three active-duty Marines who were friends from the same unit and who took part in the insurrection together. Micah Coomer is set to be sentenced on Tuesday and Joshua Abate on Wednesday.

All three were convicted of parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building.

In this image from U.S. Capitol Police video, released and annotated by the Justice Department in the Statement of Facts supporting an arrest warrant, Joshua Abate, circled in green, Micah Coomer, circled in red, and Dodge Dale Hellonen, circled in blue, appear inside the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in Washington. Hellonen, one of three active-duty Marines who stormed the U.S. Capitol together, has been sentenced to probation instead of prison time. U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes also on Monday, Sept. 11, 2023, ordered Hellonen to perform 279 hours of community service. (Justice

Fishermen clean the day's catch on a stone pier while several people chat nearby, one of them pointing toward the large ship in the bay. Meanwhile, a man sits and smokes his pipe, the tobacco glowing a bright red. A cumulus cloud, perhaps the remnant of a distant storm, towers to the left of the setting sun. Warm tones of yellow, orange, and red predominate, suggesting a hazy sunset after a bright day.

The corals will be progressively planted and grown in the nation’s waters from 2024 to bolster biodiversity and improve the resilience of coral communities and reefs."
