It’s amazing what you can pull out of your academic ass when staring down the barrel of a deadline

Today I’m reading about climate change before heading off to a lecture, then I’ve got a choir rehearsal in the afternoon.

can you imagine how smart and knowledgeable i’d be if i actually invested time and commitment into learning everything i’m interested in instead of just reading an introductory gloss and then moving onto some other topic i find fascinating? lmao wild.

3D ocean map tracks ecosystems in unprecedented detail

Oceanographers are carving up the world’s seas like the last of the holiday turkey. A new 3D map sorts global water masses — from deep, frigid circumpolar waters to the oxygen-starved Black Sea — into 37 categories.

The map groups together marine regions of similar temperature, salinity, oxygen and nutrient levels. It has been available for only a few months, and researchers are still working through how they might use it. But its international team of developers hopes that the map will help conservationists, government officials and others to better understand the biogeography of the oceans and make decisions about which areas to preserve. It could also serve as a data-rich baseline for analysing future ocean changes.

Many existing systems also attempt to classify variations in the ocean, such as lists of large marine ecosystems or the Longhurst biogeographical provinces that are defined by the rate at which ocean life consumes carbon. But these are often limited to surface or coastal ecosystems. The latest effort, known as the ecological marine units (EMUs), is the most detailed attempt yet to cover the global ocean in three dimensions.

“What’s often missing is all that’s between the surface of the ocean and the ocean bottom,” says Dawn Wright, chief scientist of Esri, a geographic information-systems company in Redlands, California, that helped to develop the 3D map. “That’s what our project will hopefully bring to the table.”

hej hej ☆彡 made some notes about geography after being busy in the past few weeks so sorry for being inactive and apologise for my not-perfect-doodled world map (´༎ຶོρ༎ຶོ`)
