La Terre s'apprête à franchir une septième de ses neuf limites. Un nouveau seuil d'alerte climatique qui aura pour conséquence d'affecter la stabilité terrestre selon un rapport du Postdam Institute for climate impact research. Les scientifiques ont défini il y a quinze ans ces neuf "limites planétaires" que l'humanité ne devrait pas dépasser si elle veut rester dans une "zone de fonctionnement sûre". Quelles sont ces neuf limites planétaires ? On pose la question à François Pitrel, journaliste environnement et climat pour BFMTV.
On this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, host Andrew Lewin delves into the importance of sharks in the ecosystem. With over 1,200 species of sharks, skates, chimeras, and stingrays, these fascinating creatures play a crucial role as predators in the food web. A recent study warns that without reducing climate change by 2100, newborn sharks may only have an 11% success rate of hatching. Tune in to learn why protecting sharks is vital for a healthy ocean ecosystem and what actions you can take to make a difference.

The study highlighted in the episode revealed that if current fossil fuel consumption patterns persist, newborn sharks may only have an 11% success rate in hatching. This low hatching success rate poses a significant threat to shark populations, potentially leading to a decrease in their numbers in the future. The study focused on small spotted cat sharks and found that environmental changes, such as oceanic warming and acidification, were affecting their hatching success. The researchers stressed the importance of successful embryo hatching for population dynamics, especially for species like skates and sharks, which have slow life cycles and low hatching rates. The findings suggest that low hatching rates could be critical for population renewal, indicating a potential decline in shark populations if the current trend continues. The episode also explored the broader implications of climate change on ocean ecosystems, highlighting the impact of warmer ocean temperatures and increased acidity on marine life. These changes are not only affecting shark embryos but also other organisms with calcium-based shells, such as corals, mollusks, and crustaceans. The disruptions in habitats and food webs are ultimately threatening the overall health and biodiversity of marine ecosystems. To address the challenges posed by climate change on shark populations and marine ecosystems, the episode emphasized the importance of taking action to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change. It called for increased awareness, support for forward-thinking policies, and transitioning to cleaner technologies like electric vehicles and renewable energy sources. The urgency of addressing climate change to protect not only sharks but also the entire marine environment from further degradation was underscored. Warmer ocean temperatures and increased acidity are having detrimental effects on small-spotted cat sharks and other marine organisms with calcium-based shells. The episode highlights how extreme weather conditions, such as spikes in ocean temperature and increases in acidity, are impacting these species. The normal pH of the ocean is around 8.2 to 8.3, but as the pH decreases due to acidification, it becomes more acidic. This acidification leads to the dissolution of calcareous materials, affecting organisms like corals, mollusks, crustaceans, and sharks. The study mentioned in the episode found that the hatching success of embryos is crucial for population dynamics, especially for species like skates and sharks, which have slow life cycles. Low hatching rates could be critical for population renewal. In scenarios where ocean temperatures continue to rise and acidity increases, the survival rates of these organisms, including small-spotted cat sharks, are significantly reduced. For example, in the worst-case scenario of fossil-fueled development, only 11% of shark embryos were observed to hatch successfully. The implications of these findings are concerning not only for small-spotted cat sharks but also for other species that rely on calcium-based shells for survival. The decline in these organisms could disrupt marine ecosystems, affecting food webs, habitats, and overall biodiversity. To address these challenges, it is crucial to take action against climate change. This includes supporting forward-thinking policies, transitioning to cleaner technologies like electric vehicles and solar panels, and actively engaging with governments and non-profit organizations working towards reducing climate change impacts on marine life. Taking action against climate change, supporting forward-thinking policies, and transitioning to cleaner technologies are crucial steps to protect marine life and habitats. The episode highlights the detrimental effects of climate change on marine species, specifically sharks, due to oceanic warming and acidification. The study mentioned in the podcast reveals that if current fossil fuel development continues unchecked, newborn sharks may only have an 11% success rate of hatching. This alarming statistic underscores the urgent need for action to mitigate climate change impacts on marine ecosystems. The episode emphasizes the importance of reducing carbon emissions and transitioning to cleaner technologies to combat climate change. It discusses how warmer ocean temperatures and increased acidity can negatively impact marine life, including sharks, by impairing cognitive function in fish and dissolving the shells of crustaceans. These changes not only threaten the survival of individual species like small-spotted cat sharks but also disrupt entire marine food webs and habitats. Supporting forward-thinking policies and advocating for stricter regulations on emissions are crucial steps in addressing climate change and protecting marine biodiversity. The podcast suggests that governments need to take more aggressive action to reduce carbon emissions and promote sustainable practices. By engaging with government representatives, supporting environmentally conscious policies, and transitioning to cleaner technologies such as electric vehicles and solar panels, individuals can contribute to the preservation of marine life and habitats. In conclusion, the episode underscores the interconnectedness of climate change, marine ecosystems, and the need for proactive measures to safeguard marine biodiversity. By taking action against climate change, supporting forward-thinking policies, and transitioning to cleaner technologies, individuals can play a vital role in protecting marine life and habitats for future generations.
Dr. Julia Huggins Part 2In this episode, we welcome back Dr. Julia Huggins to dive into the world of ocean microbes and their critical role in our planet's health. Dr. Huggins shares her research on how ocean warming, acidification, and deoxygenation are impacting these essential microorganisms. She explains that maintaining healthy ocean circulation is crucial for balancing microbes, nutrients, and energy, which in turn affects global weather patterns and climate stability.Dr. Huggins delves into the consequences of disrupted oceanic conditions, highlighting how changes in temperature, pH levels, and oxygen availability can lead to significant shifts in microbial populations. These shifts can have cascading effects on marine ecosystems, from the smallest plankton to the largest marine mammals. By understanding these connections, we can better appreciate the importance of preserving ocean health in the face of climate change.Additionally, Dr. Huggins emphasizes the need for robust scientific research and global cooperation to mitigate these issues. She discusses potential strategies for protecting ocean circulation and maintaining microbial balance, ensuring a sustainable future for our oceans and, by extension, our planet. This episode offers valuable insights into the intricate web of life beneath the waves and underscores the urgent need to address environmental challenges affecting our seas.Please rate, review and share this episode and this podcast with your friends and colleagues.
This journal club episode comes to you from the 2024 Tri-State Dairy Nutrition Conference. The paper is “Practical Aspects of Reducing Carbon Footprint by Dairy Farms Through Feeding” from the conference proceedings.In the U.S., livestock competes with oil and gas for the top source of methane emissions. While “carbon-neutral” agriculture may be easy for modelers to show, Dr. Hristov feels this is misleading and probably impossible in practical dairy farming. However, mitigation can be addressed in several directions, and nutrition can have perhaps the largest impact. Management practices, genetic selection, and manure management can be added to achieve large reductions in total methane from an intensive dairy production system. (2:43)As forage digestibility increases, methane yield and intensity will decrease. A forage with higher digestibility may gain a 10-15% improvement in methane intensity compared to a lower digestible forage. In addition, starch makes less methane than NDF does. Feedlot cattle produce half the methane of a normal dairy cow due to the increased starch in the feedlot diet. We know fats and lipids can decrease methane, but anything higher than 5-6% in the diet will disturb rumen function and lead to poorer performance. Comparing different forages, corn silage produces the least methane, with alfalfa in second place. (6:41)Feed additives have the potential to deliver compounds for methane mitigation. One of these is 3-nitrooxypropanol (3-NOP), the commercial version of which was developed in Europe. It is approved in Europe and Latin American countries. Australia and New Zealand are also working through the approval process. This compound inhibits the MCR enzyme (methyl coenzyme M reductase) which catalyzes the last step in methanogenesis. Dr. Hristov's lab has consistently shown a 30% reduction in methane yield when diets containing 3-NOP are fed, with no impact on milk production and a slight increase in milk fat. 3-NOP is quickly metabolized, so it is most useful in a confinement system where it can continuously enter the rumen. The compound is stable in a TMR for up to 24 hours, and the optimum inclusion rate is 60-80 milligrams per kilogram of diet (60-80 ppm). (14:41)Regarding regulatory approval in the U.S., the FDA has indicated that 3-NOP must be approved as a drug, not as a feed additive. Dr. Hristov has concerns about an adaptation of the cows to the compound. One study in Holland fed 3-NOP for a year, and there was a definite decrease in efficacy over time. Furthermore, efficacy may depend on diet, as 3-NOP is less effective with high NDF diets. It's unclear if the decrease in efficacy over time is because the microbes break down 3-NOP before it affects methane synthesis or if the microbes shift to a different pathway of methane synthesis. (22:04)Bromoform, a compound found in red seaweeds, is also a powerful methane mitigator. Dr. Hristov's lab has observed 60-65% decreases in methane production early in the feeding period, dropping to 20-25% after 200 days. Other issues include the practicality of growing and transporting seaweed, the instability of bromoform, and the fact that bromoform is an ozone-depleting compound and a carcinogen. Seaweed extracts tend to decrease dry matter intake, and thus milk production and milk iodine increase dramatically. (25:54)In the U.S. dairy system, where manure is usually handled as a liquid, methane emissions from manure and from the cow are equal. Methane digesters and flaring of methane are common mitigation methods. Acidification is another method whereby decreasing pH can decrease methane emissions and ammonia and nitrous oxide losses. Dr. Hristov predicts a lot of additives to decrease methane emissions from manure will eventually be available on the market. (31:16)3-NOP has little effect on rumen dynamics but may increase butyrate. Dr. Weiss asks if different feed additives have synergistic effects, and Dr. Hristov thinks much more work is needed in this arena. (33:19)While methane mitigation probably has no silver bullet, many little interventions can add up to a big impact. Looking forward, so many people are working in this area; we will have solutions for methane mitigation.

durée : 00:04:53 - Avec sciences - par : Alexandra Delbot - Si les conséquences du changement climatique sont palpables à l'échelle de l'espèce, ils peuvent paraître parfois contradictoires à l'échelle globale. Avec une méta-analyse, une nouvelle étude révèle que les réponses biologiques des organismes marins ont été plus de deux fois sous-estimées.
L'effondrement de la biodiversité semble sans limites. Six des neuf limites planétaires, définies en 2009 pour désigner les seuils critiques au-delà desquels le vivant sur Terre est en danger (le changement climatique, la pollution, la biodiversité...), ont déjà été atteintes. L'acidification des océans devrait bientôt devenir la septième limite dépassée, avec des impacts non négligeables pour les organismes marins. L'acidification des océans est une réaction chimique complexe et potentiellement mortifère. Quand les océans absorbent trop de CO2, les eaux deviennent plus acides. En deux siècles, depuis la révolution industrielle, le pH de l'océan a ainsi diminué de 30%, même si on est encore loin d'avoir atteint une eau acide (quand le pH supérieur ou égal à 7). Ce phénomène, aggravé par la hausse des températures, entraîne un vrai bouleversement pour la biodiversité marine.« Les animaux sont connus pour fonctionner selon une échelle de pH, précise José Zambonino, directeur de recherche à l'Ifremer (Institut français de recherche pour l'exploitation de la mer). Dès que l'on s'éloigne trop de cette échelle, l'animal, d'un point de vue métabolique, va être obligé de faire des efforts plus importants qu'il ne le ferait dans des conditions normales, pour pouvoir vivre, se nourrir, se déplacer éventuellement, se reproduire… » L'exemple du barLes animaux calcaires sont les plus vulnérables : les coraux, les mollusques ou le plancton à la base de la chaîne alimentaire. Mais les poissons ne sont pas épargnés, comme en témoigne une étude menée à l'Ifremer sur le bar. Une longue expérience en bassin a été conduite sur des bars pendant quatre ans et demi, de leur éclosion jusqu'à la maturité sexuelle. Le moment où l'animal est capable de se reproduire est survenu un mois plus tôt dans une eau plus acide. « Ça n'a l'air de rien du tout comme ça, sauf que là, il s'agit, pour un poisson vivant en zone tempéré, d'un phénomène qui intervient en hiver. Éclore un mois avant, pour des larves, cela veut tout simplement dire arriver à un moment où il y a beaucoup moins de choses à manger », explique José Zambonino. Résultat, une mortalité plus importante pour ces larves.À écouter aussiC'est pas du vent : nous avons franchi 6 des 9 limites planétairesAutre phénomène observé dans cette étude de l'Ifremer sur l'impact de l'acidification de l'océan sur le bar : le poisson devient plus vulnérable face aux prédateurs. « Ce CO2 plus important qui se dissout dans l'eau de mer se dissout aussi dans le sang du poisson, détaille José Zambonino. Cela va perturber en particulier ses capacités neurosensorielles. Vous allez donc avoir un animal qui, au lieu d'être craintif comme il doit l'être dans un milieu où il y a beaucoup de prédateurs, va perdre cette crainte et va se retrouver plus exposé. »Le bar est menacé. Et ce qui n'est plus dans la mer ne sera plus non plus dans notre assiette.

For the past 50 years, Dr. Morse has developed a cell regenerating detoxification program that is suitable for anyone who wants to have a healthy and vital body.Due to the fact that people have systematically consumed the wrong food for years, the condition of our human cells has reached a dramatic low point. All our organs and glands, which are in constant cooperation with our lymph system (our waste system) and have a life-supporting function, have never been so low in their vitality, with all kinds of complaints as a result. The kidneys and adrenal glands play the central role in the deacidification of our body and all forms of inflammation. Acidification is caused, among other things, by wrong lifestyle habits and hereditary degeneration. In recent decades, people have been focused on “diseases” and “combating complaints”, so that we have completely forgotten how we can help ourselves in a natural way. Our health is a direct result of what we drink, eat, breathe in and what we put on our skin. By detoxifying your body you can regain the vitality and balance of your body.No matter what your age, health is one of your greatest assets while you're living your journey on this planet. For generations, man has been ignorant of his/her body's proper nutritional needs. It is not difficult to understand the proper foods man should be consuming, which is simply reflected in the physiological design of the human species. Once called omnivores by many, humans are actually frugivores. Man's diet should be predominantly fruits and vegetables, instead of dead animals, their milks, and dormant foods (grains & beans).Understanding this and what one must do to reverse this is vital in the preservation of our species and one's experience of True Health. There is so much misinformation, mainly because of big business, that man is confused and frustrated.Dr Morse's clinic has been dedicated to truth and using Regenerative Detoxification to assist humans and animals back to health for over 40 years now. Health becomes very simple when you understand how one loses it. Dr Morse has spent decades assisting thousands in restoring and regenerating the tissues of their physical bodies as well as connecting them with God again.True happiness is a combination of physical, emotional and mental balance with a broader understanding of who you, as an individual, really are. Please note that Dr. Morse is no longer seeing clients so he may focus on research, writing, and educating. Our other counselors were carefully chosen and trained by Dr. Morse for their knowledge, experience, passion and dedication to helping the suffering find true health.

In recent years, we have seen a rise in soil acidification. Today's episode discusses the causes, signs, and effects of soil acidification, as well as strategies for mitigation, adaptation, and prevention (MAP). Joining Yara's Dr. Rob Mikkelsen is Dr. Clain Jones, renowned Montana State University Extension soil fertility specialist and Dr. Manbir Rakkar, Assistant Professor at Ohio State University who help us understand the significance of soil pH changes. Soil acidification can be caused by natural factors such as high rainfall and unbuffered rock, as well as human activities like nitrogen fertilizer application. Signs of soil acidification include stunted plant growth, nutrient deficiencies, herbicide damage, and increased fungal disease occurrence. Regular soil testing is crucial for monitoring soil pH and detecting acidification. Alternative methods for soil pH testing, such as pH sticks and remote sensing technology, can also be used. Preventing soil acidification can involve improving nitrogen use efficiency and incorporating legume crops or perennials into cropping systems. Mitigation strategies include applying lime and changing crop rotation. It is important to manage soil acidification to maintain soil and plant health and prevent long-term yield losses. Variable rate lime application and site-specific monitoring of pH can help optimize lime usage. Check out the video, "Acidification of Cropland Soil: Impact, Causes, and Solutions" that Dr. Jones created that helps explain the soil acidification issue. Read the article, "The Implication of Soil Acidity and Management Options for Sustainable Crop Production in Africa"
Le changement climatique affecte notre planète de plusieurs façons. Voici quelques-uns des effets les plus importants: 1. Augmentation de la température: Le changement climatique provoque une augmentation de la température moyenne de la Terre. Cela entraîne des vagues de chaleur plus fréquentes et plus intenses, ce qui peut avoir des conséquences graves pour la santé humaine, les écosystèmes et l'agriculture. 2. Fonte des glaciers et des calottes glaciaires: En raison de l'augmentation des températures, les glaciers et les calottes glaciaires fondent à un rythme alarmant. Cela entraîne une augmentation du niveau de la mer, ce qui menace les zones côtières et les îles basses. 3. Perturbation des écosystèmes: Le changement climatique perturbe les écosystèmes naturels en modifiant les régimes de précipitations et en altérant les habitats des espèces. Cela peut entraîner la disparition d'espèces animales et végétales, ainsi que des perturbations dans les chaînes alimentaires. 4. Événements météorologiques extrêmes: Le changement climatique est responsable de l'augmentation de la fréquence et de l'intensité des événements météorologiques extrêmes tels que les ouragans, les tempêtes, les inondations et les sécheresses. Ces phénomènes peuvent causer des dégâts considérables aux infrastructures, à l'agriculture et aux communautés. 5. Acidification des océans: L'augmentation des émissions de dioxyde de carbone dans l'atmosphère entraîne une augmentation de l'acidité des océans. Cela a des conséquences néfastes sur les récifs coralliens, les coquillages et d'autres organismes marins sensibles à l'acidité. 6. Augmentation des maladies: Le changement climatique favorise la propagation de maladies transmises par les moustiques, les tiques et d'autres vecteurs. Les maladies telles que le paludisme, la dengue et la maladie de Lyme sont devenues plus prévalentes dans de nombreuses régions du monde en raison des conditions climatiques favorables à ces vecteurs. Il est important de noter que ces effets ne sont pas exhaustifs et que le changement climatique peut avoir d'autres conséquences sur notre planète. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/chatgpt20/message
Western Canadian soils are generally neutral to slightly basic in pH values. On average, there’s plenty of buffering capacity to the soil in the west but that doesn’t mean there aren’t pockets of acidic conditions. What’s more, research is proving out to show that long-term zero-till combined with applied fertilizers is creating an acidic area... Read More
In this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, host Andrew Lewin discusses the often overlooked consequence of climate change: ocean acidification. He explains what ocean acidification is, its impact on the oceans, and explores potential solutions. This important issue is rarely discussed in the media, making it crucial for listeners to be informed and take action.

The host emphasizes that these alternative transportation methods not only benefit the environment but also promote personal health. While the host acknowledges that electric vehicles (EVs) are a viable option for transportation since they don't consume fossil fuels and therefore don't contribute to carbon emissions, they also encourage the use of walking, cycling, or public transport. These options are not only environmentally friendly but also promote physical activity and overall well-being. Furthermore, the host highlights the concept of reducing food miles as a means to minimize transportation-related carbon emissions. They suggest consuming locally grown foods and eating locally, as most meals in the US travel over 1,500 miles to reach consumers. By purchasing and consuming local and seasonal food, individuals can reduce the energy and CO2 emissions associated with food transportation. Overall, the episode emphasizes the importance of utilizing alternative modes of transportation, such as walking, cycling, or public transport, to reduce carbon emissions from cars. It also promotes the idea of eating locally and consuming locally grown foods to minimize transportation-related carbon emissions. In this episode, the host emphasizes the significance of eating locally grown foods as a way to reduce the transportation of food and the associated carbon emissions. The host explains that most meals in the US travel over 1,500 miles to reach our plates, and this transportation by road, rail, or air consumes energy and releases CO2, with air freight being the most polluting. By choosing to eat locally, such as shopping at farmer's markets or local groceries, individuals can significantly reduce the distance that food needs to travel. The host emphasizes the benefits of consuming seasonal food that is available in and around our area. By doing so, we can switch to foods that are readily available and do not require long-distance transportation. This not only reduces carbon emissions but also allows individuals to connect with the food in their local communities. Additionally, the host mentions the concept of "food miles," which refers to the distance that food travels from the farm to the consumer. By reducing food miles through the consumption of locally grown foods, individuals can contribute to reducing the carbon footprint associated with food transportation. Overall, the episode emphasizes the importance of eating locally grown foods as a way to reduce the transportation of food and the associated carbon emissions. By making conscious choices and opting for seasonal and locally sourced food, individuals can play a significant role in mitigating the environmental impact of the food industry. In this episode, the host discusses the importance of repair, reuse, and recycling to decrease carbon emissions from manufacturing new products. The host points out that often, items are discarded instead of being repaired due to the high cost of fixing them or the convenience of buying new ones. However, the host emphasizes the need to shift this mindset and prioritize repairing more things, such as iPhones or mobile phones, instead of immediately disposing of them. By repairing and reusing items, the host explains that we can significantly reduce the amount of CO2 emitted during the manufacturing process of new products. This is because manufacturing new products requires energy and resources, which contribute to carbon emissions. By extending the lifespan of products through repair and reuse, we can minimize the need for new production and therefore reduce the associated CO2 emissions. Additionally, the host acknowledges the importance of recycling certain items. While recycling is often seen as a solution to reducing waste and carbon emissions, the host acknowledges that it can sometimes be misleading, as not all items are equally recyclable. However, the host encourages listeners to prioritize refusing single-use plastics and other non-recyclable items whenever possible. By refusing and reusing items that are difficult to dispose of, we can further contribute to reducing carbon emissions and protecting natural environments. Overall, the episode emphasizes the importance of repair, reuse, and recycling as strategies to decrease carbon emissions from manufacturing new products. By adopting these practices, we can extend the lifespan of items, minimize waste, and decrease the energy and resources required for new production, ultimately leading to a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly approach.

Au cours des dernières décennies, la chimie des océans a subi des changements significatifs. Les émissions accrues de dioxyde de carbone provenant des activités humaines ont entraîné une augmentation de l'acidité des océans, un processus connu sous le nom d'acidification. Parallèlement, la désoxygénation des océans s'est accentuée, avec une diminution des niveaux d'oxygène dissous dans de nombreuses régions. Ces changements ont des répercussions profondes sur les écosystèmes marins, mettant en péril la biodiversité marine et la santé globale des océans. Pour comprendre ces phénomènes, mais aussi l'histoire de la recherche dans ces domaines, j'ai rencontré 4 chercheurs de Québec-Océan: Le professeur Piero Calosi, du Laboratoire de Physiologie Écologique et Évolutive Marine à l'UQAR Le professeur Alfonso Mucci, Department of Earth & Planetary Sciences, à l'Université McGill Madame Mathilde Jutras, doctorante à l'Université McGill Le Dr. Denis Gilbert, chercheur à la retraite de l'Institut Maurice-Lamontagne, à Pêches et Océans Canada.

For the past 50 years, Dr. Morse has developed a cell regenerating detoxification program that is suitable for anyone who wants to have a healthy and vital body.Due to the fact that people have systematically consumed the wrong food for years, the condition of our human cells has reached a dramatic low point. All our organs and glands, which are in constant cooperation with our lymph system (our waste system) and have a life-supporting function, have never been so low in their vitality, with all kinds of complaints as a result. The kidneys and adrenal glands play the central role in the deacidification of our body and all forms of inflammation. Acidification is caused, among other things, by wrong lifestyle habits and hereditary degeneration. In recent decades, people have been focused on “diseases” and “combating complaints”, so that we have completely forgotten how we can help ourselves in a natural way. Our health is a direct result of what we drink, eat, breathe in and what we put on our skin. By detoxifying your body you can regain the vitality and balance of your body.No matter what your age, health is one of your greatest assets while you're living your journey on this planet. For generations, man has been ignorant of his/her body's proper nutritional needs. It is not difficult to understand the proper foods man should be consuming, which is simply reflected in the physiological design of the human species. Once called omnivores by many, humans are actually frugivores. Man's diet should be predominantly fruits and vegetables, instead of dead animals, their milks, and dormant foods (grains & beans).Understanding this and what one must do to reverse this is vital in the preservation of our species and one's experience of True Health. There is so much misinformation, mainly because of big business, that man is confused and frustrated.Dr Morse's clinic has been dedicated to truth and using Regenerative Detoxification to assist humans and animals back to health for over 40 years now. Health becomes very simple when you understand how one loses it. Dr Morse has spent decades assisting thousands in restoring and regenerating the tissues of their physical bodies as well as connecting them with God again.True happiness is a combination of physical, emotional and mental balance with a broader understanding of who you, as an individual, really are. Please note that Dr. Morse is no longer seeing clients so he may focus on research, writing, and educating. Our other counselors were carefully chosen and trained by Dr. Morse for their knowledge, experience, passion and dedication to helping the suffering find true health.

Dr Emily Osborne, Ph.D. ( https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/people/emily-osborne/ ) is a Research Scientist, in the Ocean Chemistry and Ecosystems Division, at the Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory. The Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML), a federal research laboratory, is part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), located in Miami in the United States. AOML's research spans tropical cyclone and hurricanes, coastal ecosystems, oceans and human health, climate studies, global carbon systems, and ocean observations. It is one of ten NOAA Research Laboratories. With a B.S. in Geology from the College of Charleston and a Ph.D. in Marine Science from University of South Carolina, Dr. Osborne is currently involved in investigating regional and global biogeochemical issues related to ocean health and climate through the use of a combination of paleoceanographic approaches, new autonomous sensors, and conventional measurements on large multi-disciplinary oceanographic cruises. Paleoceanography is the study of the history of the oceans in the geologic past with regard to circulation, chemistry, biology, geology and patterns of sedimentation and biological productivity. Paleoceanographic studies using environment models and different proxies enable the scientific community to assess the role of the oceanic processes in the global climate by the re-construction of past climate at various intervals.

Coral reefs around the world face multiple dangers from warming waters, acidification, human activity, and more. Powerful storms often cause tremendous damage to reefs. When possible, snorkelers and divers are deployed to try to repair damage to reefs. But philanthropy and government grants are basically the only resources available to fund such actions. Three years […]
A new study by researchers at the University of California, Davis, has found that under the right circumstances, disease-resistant corals can rescue corals that are more vulnerable to disease. The researchers monitored a disease outbreak at a coral nursery in the Cayman Islands. They tracked the presence of disease in 650 coral fragments in various […]

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2022.09.01.506163v1?rss=1 Authors: Cottone, G., Chiodo, L., Maragliano, L., Popoff, M.-R., Rasetti-Escargueil, C., Lemichez, E., Malliavin, T. E. Abstract: Although the botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are among the most toxic compounds found in nature, their molecular mechanism of action is far from being elucidated. A key event is the conformational transition due to the acidification of the interior of synaptic vesicles, and leading to the translocation of the BoNT catalytic domain into the neuronal cytosol. To investigate these conformational variations, homology modelling and atomistic simulations are combined to explore the internal dynamics of the subtypes BoNT/A1, the most-used in medical applications, and BoNT/E1, the most kinetically efficient. This first simulation study of di-chain BoNTs in closed and open states includes the effects of neutral and acidic pH. The conformational mobility is driven by domains displacements; the ganglioside binding site in the receptor binding domain, the translocation domain (HCNT) switch and the belt helix visit multiple conformations depending on the primary sequence and on the pH. Fluctuations of the belt helix are observed for closed conformations of the toxins and at acidic pH, and patches of more accessible residues appear in the same conditions in the core translocation domain HCNT. These findings suggest that during translocation, the larger mobility of belt could be transmitted to HCNT, leading to a favorable interaction of HCNT residues with the non-polar membrane environment.

L'océan absorbe du CO2 naturellement. Pour preuve : il a été démontré que l'océan absorbe 25% de l'excès de CO2 dû aux activités humaines. Le souci c'est que cet excès a un impact dans l'océan puisqu'il va se dégrader et entrainer des réactions chimiques qui le rendent plus acide. Sur ces 10 dernières années, les scientifiques ont réalisé que l'excès de CO2 résultant des activités industrielles a changé la composition chimique de nos océans. En fait plus le PH diminue, plus les océans deviennent acides. Les explications de Florent Favier, conseiller en transition environnementale.
Ne pas vérifier et/ou corriger le pH d'un sol avant de se lancer dans l'agriculture de conservation des sols serait une erreur agronomique grave selon certains experts. L'acidification de surface, surtout, peut empêcher le bon développement des plantes. Christophe Frébourg, gérant de la société de conseil Frébourg Agroressources, et Bruno-Félix Faure, responsable agronomique au sein du laboratoire Eurofins Galys, sont les invités de ce podcast pour nous aider à explorer le sujet.

A further 1,284 more exoplanets have been confirmed by NASA's Kepler mission. This puts the total number confirmed planets outside our solar system to 3,268! Does the increase in small earthquakes below Mount St. Helens signify an imminent eruption? Not quite, but that hasn't stopped the media from panicking. For a long time, climate change scientists have been warning that as sea levels rise, some countries could be lost underwater. This week, new research shows that at least five reef islands in the Solomon Islands have been lost completely to sea-level rise. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has a boat sitting above the Marianas Trench, and it's live-streaming video from a remotely operated vehicle. One of the many amazing finds they've looked at is a beautiful jellyfish with brightly coloured gonads! This episode contains traces of John Oliver ranting about bad media reporting of science.
