🧪🛰️🌬️ Yesterday afternoon in Argentina, clouds moved just in time to show the full development of #dust plumes from the Mar Chiquita lake, the most active large dust source in S. America these days. @tomgillpredicts.bsky.social

🗺️ I've spent a lot of time the past week looking at data in the Strait of Hormuz so here is a quick animation showcasing the sheer volume of activity in the Persian Gulf last Friday. The data highlights "Tanker" only vessels (AIS code 80-89) so everything from Crude Oil Tankers to LNG Tankers.

From Earth, we can see the Sun only from the side. The ESA's Solar Orbiter probe is now getting a unique perspective above the solar poles. Here, for the first time: a clear look at the complex composition & messy magnetic environment at the Sun's south pole. 🧪🔭 www.esa.int/Science_Expl...

Just like polar bears in the Arctic, emperor penguins are the iconic species threatened by climate change in Antarctica 🐧 Read more on @danambergstrom.bsky.social article in @theconversation.com
