Brachiopods once were the dominant invert group, but after the Permian-Triassic extinction, bivalves began to run the show. There are 100s of brachs alive, but >20,000 species of bivalves by some counts! Brachs to me are the elves of invert paleo. A noble race reminding us of a better age. (302)

The Greenlandification of Antarctica | Nature Geoscience

Climate and ice sheet processes in Antarctica increasingly reflect those observed earlier in Greenland. Applying process insights from Greenland can improve projections of future Antarctic ice and climate behaviour.

🌊 Ocean stratification has increased since the 1960s, rising 0.8%/decade due to warming, with projections of up to 2.9%/decade by 2100 depending on emissions Impacts: reduced vertical mixing, altered heat and carbon uptake, intensified cyclones, and ⬆️ ecosystem stress www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Ocean stratification in a warming climate - Nature Reviews Earth & Environment

Ocean stratification — density-related layering of seawater — influences oceanographic and climatic processes. This Review outlines observed and projected changes in stratification, noting a 0.8% dec−1 increase in 0–2,000 m stratification from 1960–2024, and a further 1.4% dec−1 increase by 2100 under SSP2-4.5.

Confused writing is usually a symptom of confused thinking. As we struggle to clarify writing, we clarify our thoughts. AI writing aids rob us of that struggle, leaving clean-looking text and thoughts still confused for lack of inspection. Writing is not just a product; it is a diagnostic tool.
