Sic semper tyrannis.
It is sad that "Gulf of Mexico" isn't mentioned once by the government employees in the video, and there are only a few references to "the Gulf" at the end. Might they be referring to the Persian Gulf or has that been renamed as well. Hidden Gulf, indeed.
Better estimates of vertical land motion help predict future sea level in Chesapeake Bay region.

New article in Cornell Daily Sun on reactions by me and other faculty to Zeldin/Trump retrenchment on the endangerment finding last month.

Multiple news outlets are reporting a US attack on an Iranian #desalination plant.
If verified, this violates international law protecting #water systems during wars, and it sets a dangerous precedent, given intense dependence of Gulf countries on desalination.

My Senator and friend Chris Van Hollen of Maryland stands up for science. #standupforscience
Maryland’s Congressman Jamie Raskin stands up for science.
I have had the great fortune to have spent a long career as an American scientist. That's why I'm heading into DC now to the Stand Up For Science rally. Please join me.

The real insanity isn’t how much oil prices have spiked, it’s that we’re still burning oil for energy.
Wow, look how great Trump is doing in creating jobs since he took over in January 2025! www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...
Scientists and other experts were preparing an assessment of the health of nature in the US when Trump returned to the White House. He canceled the report. The researchers went ahead and compiled it on their own. This week, they released a 868-p draft for public comment and scientific review.
That does it! I am drinking my best bottle of Spanish wine tonight. Salud!
No, it's intended as a joke. It's just loaf and loaves.

I can attest to that. I knew him before his conversion. His accent was not nearly as strong and he was rational.
An existential problem for coastal Louisiana. Even the oil and gas companies didn't want EPA to rescind the finding that greenhouse gas emissions endanger human health and well being.

Sigh.
This is the directorate that funds all of the earth, ocean & atmosphere research at NSF.
This rise in domestic prices has occurred despite the record setting growth in U.S. production of natural gas. The Increase during ramp-up of LNG exports was attributable solely to Permian and Haynesville Basins, those that supply the Gulf Coast expert terminals.

In January 2026, the Henry Hub spot price for natural gas averaged $7.72 per million British thermal units (MMBtu), rising sharply from December’s average of $4.26/MMBtu.

LNG exports grew dramatically as Gulf Coast terminals came online and will increase further as two more terminals (one at the TX-LA border and another on the Mississippi below New Orleans) come online.

LNG export terminals have burgeoned on the Gulf Coast, especially Louisiana, aggressively pushed by political and business leaders. Increased exports drove up domestic natural gas prices, greatly impacting Louisiana consumers.

Interesting that they are removing the unused undersea cable, when the US government has allowed more than 18,000 miles of abandoned oil and gas pipelines to litter the seafloor of the Gulf of Mexico.

This could have some significant impacts.
Hatchery-supported reef restoration phenomenally increased oyster populations in Chesapeake Bay, so cutting federal funding is senseless. Thanks @vanhollen.senate.gov & @elfreth.house.gov for providing appropriations & insisting that spat production be continued. www.thebanner.com/community/cl...
UCS’s Julie McNamara breaks down the impacts of repealing the Endangerment Finding and the legal fight we are joining to challenge that decision. “The only workable path ahead? Doubling down on commitment to action.”
While rolling back climate regulations, the Trump administration says this is what the American people want. Yet, YPCCC’s own research shows that a majority of Americans think global warming is happening and that it is making extreme weather worse. climatecommunication.yale.edu/publications...
