@Rainmaker1973 In this paper they made tiny boots for dung beetles, to measure the impact of temperature on how often they stop rolling and stand on top of the ball:

I'm waiting for the obvious followup paper where they examine the impact of tiny hats to block the sun!

Road Weather Information Systems help transportation authorities like AKDOT&PF make informed decisions on winter road maintenance. Research @uafengineering by @dr_traffic presents a novel approach for using RWIS as a road safety countermeasure. #cartoonist @907nuggets
Ogives are bands of ice that alternate in both height and color and can be seen on a glacier’s surface. They are often shaped into arcs that point towards the bottom of the glacier. https://t.co/H2wPMQjtwH Photo credit: Allen Pope

@fcain@universetoday @storybywill Some good ideas there, but they assume many unsupported ideas, like the requirement for pressure gradients. The existence of underwater ecosystems implies life does not require 1 g gravity. Clouds mean the surface of Mars receives more solar photons on average than Earth. Odd!
After 2 days of safety and measurements training in Fairbanks, #SnowEx2023#SnowExAlaska participants split in 2 group - one group stayed in boreal forest; second group drove 360 miles north to @Toolik to get ready for arctic tundra snow measurements @INE_Research@werc_uaf@NASA
NWS is at the Tanana Chiefs Conference Annual Convention this week in Fairbanks. We have met many people from communities across the Interior. This is a great event for us to hear about the current ice conditions and also share information about the upcoming spring breakup. #akwx
In this month's Alaska Trends magazine, there's a really good article about how Alaska's net migration losses are actually even worse than they appear because the state's working-age population is who's moving away: https://t.co/PX34IH72jm #akleg
Congrats to @LitioReina of the Alaska EPSCoR Coastal Margins Team and @marybethleigh who has been involved in developing the next Alaska EPSCoR project phase!
@LucasSa54749430 @ExolithLab @rjward1775@benmagelsen @nart_rio @berthibodeau Wow! The neat thing about this concrete recipe is we can make *all* the parts from ordinary rocks: the silica is left over after HCl leaching, the red mud is precipitated from the HCl leach, and there's only a tiny amount (1%) NaOH.
