If youre not sure where to find evacuation maps and notifications for your area, @wadnr.bsky.social has posted links on their wildfire portal: dnr.wa.gov/wildfire-res...

NISAR animation before I leave work. Data from June 28 and July 10 over Australia, where the first date was acquired during a big rainstorm (rain rate from IMERG in green-red colors). Note that the NISAR data is much brighter near the storm on that date than it is on the following, July 10 date.

Google Earth, a tool often used as a source of satellite imagery to verify photos and videos, has added a feature that allows you to alter satellite imagery with AI, for reasons. blog.google/products-and...

There is a lot to say about the Nolan Odyssey movie. But one point that I think has not been emphasized enough is: this is a film about living in LA, as Nolan, my erstwhile British compatriot and age mate, has done for years. I gather it’s a strange place.

Data from the NASA-ISRO NISAR mission is now available not only through the Alaska Satellite Facility @ak-satellite.bsky.social , but also in Worldview (worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov), where you can compare the normalized backscatter (i.e., the GCOVS) with other NASA-supported data and models.

yayyyyyyyy.....

Twice a year, Hawai'i experiences a strange moment where the sun appears to be exactly overhead & anything that is completely vertical casts no shadow. Let's learn about Lāhainā Noon, subsolar points & 'Kau ka lā i ka lolo', meaning "the sun rests on the brains."

Two people tried to enter a screening of The Odyssey without buying tickets after hiding inside a miniature model of the Trojan Horse. 😂😂😂

A modest proposal: a browser plugin that detects "aesthetic" being misused that way and replaces it with "fetch".

I’m not sure that Bluesky has a large enough number of chicken dust-bathing videos, so here are six seconds of chicken joy.

Google Earth Pro will be no longer avaliable for download from June 2027 onwards. It's one of the tools that made my early work possible, so it's really sad to see it go. support.google.com/earth/thread...

I once asked a priest to bless a printer that I was in the middle of fighting with and he went "I only bless things when there's a chance it'll take" and then turned and walked out of the room.

NASA-ISRO SAR (NISAR) satellite imaged Venezuela June 25. NISAR SAR interferometry (InSAR) enabled calculation of surface displacement. Displacements have red tones for east and blue tones for west, with white in middle near-zero over fault rupture. Fault ruptured far to east under ocean. #venezuela

Composite plot of the two coseismic interferograms (Sentinel-1, from Copernicus) with the USGS epicenters of the two earthquakes and faults from GEM. The shoreline San Sebastián fault lines up with the fringes in the west and is probably the fault responsible.

🚨 As a service to global researchers working on the 24 June 2026 #Venezuela #earthquakes, SSA has created a short list of our journal papers related to the region. These papers will be freely available until 16 July 2026. #OpenAccess buff.ly/AxzKr5V ⚒️

It's taken me a while, but here is my first interferogram of the Venezuela earthquakes from Sentinel-1. It's an ascending track to the west of the epicenter, and the pattern of displacements is consistent with slip on a fault that runs close to and parallel to the coast.

We often say this heat wave is a glimpse of our future. That's true, but it's only part of the story. Conditions like these will become more common, but even more intense heat waves will then emerge, with worsening impacts on people and ecosystems. Graphic from climate.copernicus.eu/esotc/2025/t...

Ok you guys. Here’s the deal. The M7.1 in Venezuela was upgraded to a M7.2. AND it was followed shortly by a M7.5. Not good.

Olivia Paschall (Cornell): "Bad" pixels (pixels with high amplitude dispersion) in desert areas show more apparent uplift than "good" pixels. You can get a 2 mm/yr bias in uplift rates! Don't average good pixels with bad! Comparing VV and VH polarization time series can help find the bad pixels!
