Hot cold salty fresh humid sheared stratified convective, & awesome! Prof @MixingAirSea lab @UofRedlands (he/el). My views, not employer's. (same @ bsky)

We're building a prototype wind tunnel. ¡Más viento por favor!

May is the month of AP tests and I want to remind everyone of the time Admiral Adama took a break from hunting Replicants to teach Richie Valens calculus and Terry Benedict didn't believe it

Helped retrieve javelins at a track and field event today. I remain successfully not skewered.

@drocto @JerusalemDemsas I think I misread "directional" as "dimensional". Oops, I apologize for my sloppy error.

We have a critical opportunity right now: NSF is requesting input on the future of NCAR, which is under threat of being dismantled. I just submitted my comments to NSF, and you can too, using AGU's easy instructions and form. https://t.co/KWV40zPEkm

I was warned, I should have seen this coming.

Note to self: Take advantage of opportunities to reach out to old acquaintances. I remember them fondly for a reason. It feels good to know they continue to exist out in the world.

A biology colleague showed me Winogradsky columns. They are biological (obviously), chemical (reaction rates), physical (diffusion), and mathematical (partial differential equations) systems
d/dt(Oxy.) = Diff.*d^2/dz^2(Oxy.) -RxRate*Oxy.
Disciplinary distinctions are a lie!

Law enforcement use of lethal force is always a failure. At best, insufficient resources are deployed to make a scene safe. At worst, a violent individual has been allowed to cloak their wrath under the color of law. Either way introspection and reform are needed.

In my opinion the @AAMC_MCAT takes advantage of its position to extract a profit from naive students with an earnest desire to understand the requirements to get into medical schools.

For Pez, like gifts during the holiday, the biggest joy is in the giving (well dispensing).

[Martín S. Hoecker-Martínez Ph.D. @msmithma]

This is utter folly. NCAR hosts and maintains multiple basic tools the broad scientific community uses to process large data sets. This is the equivalent of salting the earth and putting towns to the torch. I struggle to understand the wanton needless destruction.

The National Science Foundation will be breaking up the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado. This facility is one of the largest sources of climate alarmism in the country. A comprehensive review is underway & any vital activities such as weather research will be moved to another entity or location. 👇

The apparent jump in arctic growth rate at the start of December is likely an artifact of how the rate is calculated using a low order polynomial fit. Do not read too much into it.

[Martín S. Hoecker-Martínez Ph.D. @msmithma]

Annually arctic sea ice grows fastest between late Sept. and early Nov. peaking above 10^5 sq km/day. The peak has been getting later and and higher. This year it was later but it didn't make it above 10^5 sq km/day.

[Martín S. Hoecker-Martínez Ph.D. @msmithma]

Never forget the Buckingham π theorem

[Martín S. Hoecker-Martínez Ph.D. @msmithma]

Or it's an artifact of smoothing the data. This is the same graph using a 14 day window to smooth the data and estimate the rate of change.

[Martín S. Hoecker-Martínez Ph.D. @msmithma]

In October arctic sea ice expands over 100,000 sq km per day. It hasn't reached that rate (yet?). There are historically two periods of rapid expansion one in October and a secondary one in December.
Probably too early to say if the deviation is significant.
