Hi #sciencemastadon , an introduction: I'm a researcher working at Wageningen University and Research (#wur), studying the #ecology of #marinemammals (mostly #seals) in the Netherlands or #arctic. This involves analysing their #spatial distribution and #habitat selection based on #wildlife #tracking or #drone/ #uav/ #satellite data using #rstats
Recently, also interested in human #behavioural ecology and alternative economic systems like #degrowth/ #postgrowth

A new, free tool from Carbon Mapper lets you get a look at where plumes of greenhouse gases are coming from, down to the level of individual facilities, oil fields, or landfills, for example..

I just learned about the carbonmapper.org site which maps out #methane leaks around the globe using #satellite data ๐๐ฐ๏ธ
Methane is a potent #greenhouse gas (28x more potent than #CO2), and it needs to be flared off or otherwise mitigated.
This satellite #data has high enough resolution that you can clearly see the source in many cases. I just signed up for their mailing list.

A short picture thread from yesterday's expedition to Raisting Earth Station, in freezing fog (-12โ) and being completely alone there. This station (opened in 1963, still one of the largest in the world) enabled satellite comms between Norh America & Europe for the very 1st time and then was also used for transmitting the moon landing and the 1972 Munich Olympics...
The foggy weather and flat light was almost exactly as I'd hoped for (and been patiently waiting & planning for). It absolutely emphasized the artificiality of these structures in the surrounding landscape. Also loved the design, scale and architecture of some of the antennas. A pretty special place & experience - we shall return!

(1/3) Exciting news from the world of marine conservation! Researchers at Global Fishing Watch have utilized #satellite imagery and #AI to revolutionize our understanding of human activities at sea. Published in Nature, their study unveils a surprising fact: nearly 75% of the world's industrial fishing vessels, along with a significant portion of energy and transport vessels, evade public tracking. https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/3/24018797/ocean-maps-ai-satellite-imagery-radar-fishing-vessels-offshore-energy-wind-oil
Our IAU Centre for the Protection of the Dark and Quiet Sky from Satellite Constellation Interference paper on observations of the #BlueWalker3 prototype #satellite is finally out in the latest print edition of Nature accompanied by a News & Views piece by @sundogplanets.
After almost 3 months here, I am a strong advocate of #Mastodon and Iโm convinced the #Fediverse is the future, so time for an updated #Introduction!
I run https://wessexweather.net from #Dorset, England, and am passionate about #Weather, #Meteorology, #Clouds, #Climate and #ClimateChange.
I am also a licensed #HamRadio #AmateurRadio ham, with a special interest in #ShortWave #Radio and #ShortWaveListening #SWLing, and decode and publish my own weather #satellite images.

Hello everyone, it's time we start officially posting on Mastodon, so here is our #Introduction -- we are the #Chandra X-ray Center, responsible for updating you on all of the goings-on at the #ChandraXray Center operating NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. From newsletters and workshops to proposals and peer review, we are here to keep you in the loop with what is going on in Cambridge and in orbit. #Astrodon #Astronomy #Astrophysics #Space #Science #Satellite #NASA #XRaysAreTheBestRays
Time for some shameless self-promotion: my new gig with Professor Chris Fluke at the #SmartSAT CRC at the Swinburne Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing, via an #ANAT Bespoke Residency. I'm the #sciartist-in-residence for 6 months, looking at using Unreal Engine for #XR development using near-real-time multi- and #hyperspectral satellite data, machine learning and human-computer interaction. Perfect - couldn't be more thrilled ๐

Earlier this year, I wrote a four-part series of articles for @mongabay about technology that can boost and support global reforestation efforts.
Now, a Mongabay Explains video summarising the series is out! https://news.mongabay.com/2023/08/mongabay-explains-how-high-tech-tools-are-used-for-successful-reforestation/ #Reforestation #Tech #Drone #AI #Satellite
