"Dust has the potential to play a significant role in the nutrient dynamics of alpine watersheds with important ecological implications."
This paper, co-authored by Cluster member Janice Brahney, is an example of how scientists are peeking under the hood of the #CriticalZone to see how it's all working together.
Join Cluster member @jmunroe at #EGU25 later this month. Along with research about rock glaciers and films screening as part of the @EuroGeosciences Geocinema eveing, he'll also be presenting about his next project: strengthening connections between #CriticalZone scientists all around the world: https://bit.ly/EGU25_2917

What do you do day-to-day in your work?
"I might be in the lab filtering samples or extracting DNA, in the field performing an experiment or collecting more dust, or at a desk analyzing data and writing about my results."

Great summary of the ** Possible ** detection of dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl disulfide in the atmosphere of a distant planet.
On Earth these gasses are exclusively produced by ocean plankton. The Planet is between Earth and Neptune in size and appears to have liquid water.
This is not a definite detection, and there could be non-biological ways to produce these gasses. (ie this has been seen in comets)

And while it may not have all the features of major browsers, it has a very handy one: inspectors, which provide some additional information about the site. #productivity #research #tipoftheday #websearch https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20250211-devonagent-browser-inspectors
Nature Navigator is a tool from Springer that allows you to see breakouts of various topics by topic maps, number of publications in each subtopic of the area, etc. You need to create a login account to use the tool. In the topic map, you can often click on a node to see subnodes of that topic. It also shows topic breakouts for some conferences such as ISWC.
The moment you've been refreshing your browsers for has arrived: the #OpenScience Festival #OSF2025NL on 24 Oct 2025 in #Groningen is officially on the horizon!
Call for submissions for #workshops, #posters, or a #stand at the info market opens late May
Whether you're into
#OpenAccess, #OpenEducation, #FAIR #data #CitizenScience, #PublicEngagement #open #hardware or #research #software - this is your chance to connect with the #Dutch open science community!
How do we outsmart a mosquito that thrives in the heart of our cities?
Dr. Steffen Knoblauch (PostDoc at GIScience and HeiGIT) et al. have developed the first large-scale, high-resolution maps that predict where Ae. aegypti is most likely to breed. The approach combines openly available satellite and street view imagery with climate data to identify potential micro-habitats across Rio de Janeiro at a 200-meter resolution.
