Wow, look what I found! But it's certainly not as big as I thought it would be. And I didn't think I'd find it in Brookings, Oregon, either. 🤔

A color landscape photo of a medium sized commercial fishing boat next to a dock. The boat's hull is light blue with "Noah's Ark" painted on the bow. It points toward the left. The cabin is painted white and there are two very tall outriggers. On the back is a large spool of net. There's a low uniform cloud (fog) cover and a seagull is flying toward the left in the top left corner.

🐙 Scientists drilled 1.3 km into the Atlantic seafloor and found the hidden plumbing system powering the "Lost City" - a field of hydrothermal vents where life thrives without sunlight, fueled by chemical reactions between seawater and mantle rock.

Huge implications for finding life on ocean worlds like Europa.

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🏖️📉 #California has lost roughly 60% of its coastal sand dunes since the 1850s, a loss of about 442 km².

Researchers used historical #maps, aerial #photos, and #lidar #data tracked by #machinelearning to measure the decline. Most losses came from development, #erosion, and invasive grasses, but some dunes expanded by 15 km² .

Y'all are gonna get tired of me posting beach photos, especially this week.

That cloud reflection, though...

#Ocean #Beach

A bank of white fluffy clouds is reflected in the wet sand of an ocean beach. The photo is taken from the water side, with a view of low vegetation-topped sand dunes.
