Mike Hulme touches on this quite a lot, e.g. Reducing the Future to Climate: A Story of Climate Determinism and Reductionism www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/epdf/10....

An image of the southern hemisphere of the earth is overlain with traces showing the journey that my breath will take over the next 7 days for each hour of the day, as predicted using NOAA HySplit air parcel modelling software.

Looks perfect! We always make extra so we can eat leftovers for days.

another mint supporter here. old family recipe, so must be right.

Probably some serious rounding up going on there. ‘Nearly’ is doing a lot of work.

maybe change the sign to 'American exceptionalism'

palimpsest parallel

we’re all palimpsests

A provocatively named coal ship just got provocatively tagged in Newcastle harbour.

True if ‘America’ is defined as the Trump family.

refrigerator stylists?

My daughter asked what I was up to tomorrow, I told her I hadn’t planned that far ahead.

One for the good side in the seemingly never ending climate change information v misinformation battle.

‘The way that the media deals with the climate is it’s an environmental story and it’s a future story. Whereas this is a housing story, a cost-of-living story, an inequality story, a role of government story…’

And the wind turbines bearing witness.
Quintessential post-apocalyptic image right there.

I find it difficult to ‘welcome’ the target. There is no sign of a government acknowledgment of the need for rapidly exiting Australia’s ff extraction, as the science demands. As a major ff exporter our moral global role should be to slow the world’s dependence, rather than support new extraction.

ok. thanks.

“how you died does not redeem how you lived”

is ups the government run service (or was) and fundamentally run as a ‘service’ rather than a ‘ business’?

A ‘real’ photographer is conceptualising in ‘stops’ of exposure, derived from shutter speed, aperture and sensitivity. 1 stop is double/half the amount of light reaching the film & easy to do that in your head for shutter with fractions of a second. Film and aperture have similarly ‘odd’ units.

dear America you don't have a left, you have Conservatives, a right, a far right and then you have Trump, and then you have the extreme right he enables...get out of the country and have a look at how fucking crazy it is to the rest of us...I wish I was joking.

For a project I am working on - how do you think John Howard fundamentally changed Australia - what did he do that we are still feeling the effects of? (Housing, immigration debates, loss of workers rights, black arm band of history, jingoism etc)

Really interested in your takes.

The greatest contributor to what Ken Henry calls the shift from Australia as the nation of the ‘fair go’ to the nation of ‘finders keepers’.

a useful bit of knowledge. thanks.

correct

…. or social housing or public space

Same in Australia, but their power is waning. The right wing party they own was decisively defeated last election. I suspect a combination of compulsory voting and declining boomer numbers. Young people want change.

I just realised that this is a measure of bedload, certainly an alternative visualisation. The dredge David Allan runs 7 days a week keeping the port of Newcastle clear for coal ships. 10 x 1,100 m3 loads each day.

And Kooragang Island is 10k? years of sediment deposition.

Perhaps the best way to visualise sediment flow are the satellite images you just shared showing river outfalls. Our local river (Hunter) flowing out to sea at Newcastle runs brown with sediment (along with trees and the occasional cow) during floods. 3/3

measurement, just the occasional turbidity measure.

I did find references to some localised sediment studies and to SedNet. This paper seems at first glance to have a good intro to some of the dimensions of sediment and rivers and will read that.
