A short clip by France 5 on the Mediterranean salt giant (Messinian salinity crisis) - "Cataclysmes: le grandes régulateurs", a documentary by Christine Tournadre. Very happy of the final shape of the 3D animations. As real as they can get! 1/2

Lamentamos profundamente el fallecimiento de Josefina Castellví, pionera de la oceanografía española y primera directora de una Base Antártica Española. Su legado en la ciencia, la investigación polar y la igualdad en la ciencia inspira a generaciones. Gracias por abrir caminos.

Está sí que es buena…

@DianaMorantR Ella propuso el nombre del rey emérito para la Base Antártica Española BAE, podría ser un buen momento para cambiarlo y ponerle el suyo.

La guerra que todos perdimos, en palabras exactas de David Uclés.  Hace menos de un mes.

Hablar de Félix de Azara no es sólo hablar de un naturalista brillante. Es hablar de cómo la ciencia española se ejerció históricamente dentro de un entramado institucional, político y técnico que hizo posible conocer y dominar territorios a escala imperial. Y merece un hilo:👇🧵

Fascinating paper just published in Science. The authors analyze the career trajectories of top performers across multiple domains, including Nobel laureates, elite chess players, Olympic gold medalists, and more. Their central finding challenges a common belief. Intensive, single-discipline training at a young age does confer an early advantage, but this advantage fades over time. By contrast, individuals exposed to multidisciplinary practice early in life tend to start more slowly. Yet, over the long run, they are more likely to reach world-class performance, eventually overtaking early specialists, who often plateau just below the very top. An important reminder that breadth early on can be a powerful investment in long-term excellence. Link to the paper in the first reply.

@OperadorNuclear @iterorg ¿sabes algo del reactor chino en construcción? en verano se publico que tenía fecha de *producción* para 2030 pero no he vuelto a ver más.

El Reactor Termonuclear Experimental Internacional @iterorg fusionará deuterio y tritio a 150 millones de grados Celsius, diez veces la temperatura del núcleo del Sol. iter.org/few-lines

Farthest ever landing. Titan landing. It's a shame many people don't know we landed on a moon of Saturn.

@meteourologo esto fue el 10-O

Creo que hoy hace 8 años del ridículo de la republiqueta 😂😂😂😂😂😂

This paper by @TihanaPensa based on seismics, biostratigraphy, and strontium, suggests the Red Sea was restricted from the ocean near Suez, salinified, then desiccated, then reflooded from the Indian Ocean only 250 ky before the same happened to the Mediterranean.

A landscape evolution model inspired by the evolution of the Duero and Ebro Basins (N Spain). The different topographic evolution is controlled by the faster erosion along the weaker Ebro outlet. youtu.be/l-lXDk-sHDU From Struth et al., 2021, BSGF pubs.geoscienceworld.org/sgf/bsgf/artic…

I got this comment. I had to click on his username, only to find out that his last upload to Youtube is a 'documentary' about an alien city in Antarctica. 🤦‍♀️

Our recent paper in @ScienceAdvances. We may have a better picture of how the Mediterranean level evolved during the Lago-Mare: "Kilometric sea level changes during the Messinian salinity crisis caused by river erosion and climate" science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… youtube.com/watch?v=AmUn-R…

I need to share this wonderful openwater swimming day in Barcelona

Measures of ozone in polar regions over time. The 'Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer' entered into force in 1989. The blue line is a model.

Ha fallecido la madre del programa Erasmus Sofia Corradi. 38 años después todavía no existe un programa comparable de intercambio a nivel español.

This is fantastic. Are you familiar with he ‘Cargo Cult’? (Pacific islanders worshiping planes after WW2). This is Greece. Local islanders celebrate the end of the tourist season by diving behind the propellers of a departing boat

Hoy inauguramos "Explorar la Tierra: un viaje con Verne y las Geociencias". A las 10.30 en la sede de Madrid del @IGME1849
