Episode 113: In this episode, Kate sits down with author Marguerite Holloway to explore her new book ‘Take to the Trees: A Story of Hope, Science, and Self-Discovery in America's Imperiled Forests'. Marguerite takes us on a deeply personal journey as she learns to climb trees at a women's tree climbing workshop—an experience that shifts her perspective—quite literally—and opens her up to new ways of seeing the world. From Aspens to Magnolias, and Hemlocks to Beeches, she brings us into the hidden lives of trees, tracing their biology, history, and the complex relationships they share with our ecosystems.As we dive into the perils trees face in a warming climate, we also talk about the from arborists, biologists, and ecologists who are working tirelessly to protect them. This conversation brings into focus the often-overlooked world of trees, challenging ‘plant blindness' and shifting them from the periphery to the center of our attention. At its heart, the conversation is about reconciling the hard truths of ecological loss with the enduring hope that comes from connecting with nature in such a direct and transformative way. This episode is as much about trees as it is about seeing the world through a new lens—one that invites us to reimagine our relationship with the living world around us.Find Marguerite: Take to the Trees: A Story of Hope, Science, and Self-Discovery in America's Imperiled ForestsX: @marg_hollowayLinkedInNew Yorker ArticlesWomens Tree Climbing Workshop Episodes Like It:Episode 93: The Wood Age: Humans and the Forests That Made Them Human with John PerlinEpisode 87: Complexity, Cooperation, and Beauty - A New Story for Earth with Ferris JabrEpisode 72: Circular Economies and Linear Infrastructure: The Complex Interplay of Roads, Beavers, and Ecosystems with Ben GoldfarbEpisode 66: We are the Drivers of Our Species Tomorrows with Cat BohannonEpisode 95: Basins of Relations: Water, Fire, Beavers, and beyond with Brock DolmanEpisode 99: Living Into the Life You Want with Caroline NelsonSupport Kate: PatreonSubstackPayPal-Leave a One Time TipSponsored By:

WHOOEE. Brock Dolman, folks, in this episode is weaving together all sorts of things previously explored on the podcast in a new (old) and incredibly articulate way. This podcast is about water cycles, beavers, fire, sand, geology, the oceans, a living earth, and so much more. Brock is a conservation ecologist and a specialized generalist over at the Occidental Arts and Ecology Center. He's also, in his own right, a linguist and an incredible waeaver of words. We explore the nouns and verbs of earth as energy flows, matter cycles, and life webs. This episode is a catch all - and at the heart of it, is a message about how to build lasting community.

Rashid Shams, University of Southern California Site response in sedimentary basins is partially governed by mechanisms associated with three-dimensional features. This includes the generation of propagating surface waves due to trapped and refracted seismic waves, focusing of seismic energy due to basin shape and size, and resonance of the entire basin sediment structure. These mechanisms are referred to as basin effects and they lead to a significant increase in the amplitude and duration of the observed ground motions from earthquake events. Currently, ground motion models (GMMs) incorporate basin effects using the time-averaged shear-wave velocity in the upper 30 m (V_S30), and the isosurface depths (depth to a particular shear wave velocity horizon, z_x). This approach captures site response features associated with the basin but uses parameters that are one-dimensional in nature and therefore are limited in their description of the lateral and other three-dimensional (3D) contributing effects. This work explores geometric features as predictive parameters in the development of region-specific models to improve the characterization of site response in sedimentary basins. In this work we constrained basin shape using depth to sedimentary basement (depth to a particular shear wave velocity horizon i.e., z_1.5 and z_2.3) and depth to crystalline basement (z_c,b) which are derived and validated using systematic exploration of geological cross sections and Community Velocity Model (CVM) profiles over Los Angeles Basin (LAB). Finally geometric parameters such as includes Standard deviation of zcb, Standard deviation of Absolute difference between z_1.5 and z_cb, distance from basin margin, and Spatial Area of Influence based on V_S30 are computed based on finalized shape. Residual analysis is employed to access derived geometric parameters for their ability to reduce bias and uncertainty in basin site response analysis.

Investors are split on the outlook for natural gas as “peak shale” may be on the horizon. Here's what to expect in 2024.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Devin McDermott, Head of Morgan Stanley's North American Energy Research Team and the Lead Commodity Strategist for Global Gas and LNG Markets. Today, I'll be talking about some of the big debates around natural gas and shale in 2024. It's Thursday, January 11th at 10 a.m. in New York. The evolution of shale as a viable, low cost energy resource, has been one of the biggest structural changes in global oil and gas markets of the past few decades. In oil, this turned the U.S. into the world's largest producer, while falling costs also led to sharp deflation in prices and global oversupply. For U.S. natural gas, which is more regionally isolated, it allowed the market to double in size from 2010 to 2020, with demand growing rapidly across nearly every major end-market. Over this period, the U.S. transitioned from a net importer of liquefied natural gas, or LNG, to one of the world's largest exporters. But despite this robust growth, prices actually declined 80% over the period as falling cost of U.S. shale and pipeline expansions unlocked low cost supply. Now looking ahead after a multi-year pause, the US is set to begin another cycle of LNG expansion. This comes in response to some of the market shocks from the Russia/Ukraine conflict, including loss of Russian gas into Europe, as well as strong demand growth in Asia, where LNG serves as a key energy transition fuel. In total, projects that are currently under construction should nearly double US LNG export capacity by the later part of this decade. While the last wave didn't drive prices higher, this time can be different as it comes at a time when some investors feel like peak shale might be on the horizon. Shale is maturing, well costs and break-evens are generally no longer falling, and pipe expansions have slowed significantly due to regulatory challenges. While many of these issues are more apparent on the oil side, there are challenges for gas as well. Notably, the lowest cost US supply region, the Marcellus in Appalachia, is constrained by lack of infrastructure. As a result, meeting this demand likely elicits a call on supply growth from higher cost regions relative to last cycle. This not only includes the Haynesville, a gas play in Louisiana, but also the Eagle Ford in Texas and Basins in Oklahoma, potentially requiring prices in the $4 to $5 per MMBtu range to incentivize sufficient investment. Investors are split on the natural gas outlook. Bears argue that abundant, low cost domestic supply will meet LNG demand without higher prices, just like last time, while bulls backed higher prices this time around. Now, strong supply and a mild start to the winter heating season has actually pushed Henry Hub prices lower to close out 2023, bringing year-to-date declines to 50%. While this drives a softer set up for the first half of 2024, lower prices also come with a silver lining. This should help moderate potential investment in new supply ahead of the pending wave of LNG expansions. As a result, we believe the bearish near-term setup may prove bullish for the second half of 2024 and 2025. A dynamic many stocks in the sector do not fully reflect. Thanks for listening.

OD6 Metals Ltd (ASX:OD6) MD Brett Hazelden tells Proactive the company is encouraged by the use of state-of-the-art modelling led by Australia's national science agency, CSIRO, that reveals major extensions to clay-hosted rare earth element (REE) basins at the Splinter Rock REE Project in WA. The CSIRO has applied machine-learning technology and advanced 3D modelling to provide an enhanced interpretation of OD6's Tempest Airborne Electromagnetic (AEM) survey data. This modelling, which compares well to existing drilling, has expanded clay basin areas at Splinter Rock. #ProactiveInvestors #OD6Metals #ASX #RareEarthElements #CriticalMinerals #SplinterRockProject #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.07.31.551339v1?rss=1 Authors: Patel, A. A., Cardona, A., Cox, D. N. Abstract: Metazoans detect and differentiate between innocuous (non-painful) and/or noxious (harmful) environmental cues using primary sensory neurons, which serve as the first node in a neural network that computes stimulus specific behaviors to either navigate away from injury-causing conditions or to perform protective behaviors that mitigate extensive injury. The ability of an animal to detect and respond to various sensory stimuli depends upon molecular diversity in the primary sensors and the underlying neural circuitry responsible for the relevant behavioral action selection. Recent studies in Drosophila larvae have revealed that somatosensory class III multidendritic (CIII md) neurons function as multimodal sensors regulating distinct behavioral responses to innocuous mechanical and nociceptive thermal stimuli. Recent advances in circuit bases of behavior have identified and functionally validated Drosophila larval somatosensory circuitry involved in innocuous (mechanical) and noxious (heat and mechanical) cues. However, central processing of cold nociceptive cues remained unexplored. We implicate multisensory integrators (Basins), premotor (Down-and-Back) and projection (A09e and TePns) neurons as neural substrates required for cold-evoked behavioral and calcium responses. Neural silencing of cell types downstream of CIII md neurons led to significant reductions in cold-evoked behaviors and neural co-activation of CIII md neurons plus additional cell types facilitated larval contraction (CT) responses. We further demonstrate that optogenetic activation of CIII md neurons evokes calcium increases in these neurons. Collectively, we demonstrate how Drosophila larvae process cold stimuli through functionally diverse somatosensory circuitry responsible for generating stimulus specific behaviors.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Visible loss landscape basins don't correspond to distinct algorithms, published by Mikhail Samin on July 28, 2023 on LessWrong. Thanks to Justis, Arthur Conmy, Neel Nanda, Joseph Miller, and Tilman Räuker for their feedback on a draft. I feel like many people haven't noticed an important result of mechanistic interpretability analysis of grokking, and so haven't updated how they think about loss landscapes and algorithms that neural networks end up implementing. I think this has implications for alignment research. When thinking about grokking, people often imagine something like this: the neural network implements Algorithm 1 (e.g., memorizes the training data), achieves ~ the lowest loss available via memorization, then moves around the bottom of the Algorithm 1 basin and after a while, stumbles across a path to Algorithm 2 (e.g., the general algorithm for modular addition). But the mechanistic interpretability of grokking analysis has shown that this is not true! Approximately from the start of the training, Algorithm 1 is most of what the circuits are doing and what almost entirely determines the neural network's output; but at the same time, the entire time the neural network's parameters visibly move down the wider basin, they don't just become better at memorization; they increasingly implement the circuits for Algorithm 1 and the circuits for Algorithm 2, in superposition. (Neel Nanda et al. have shown that the circuits that at the end implement the general algorithm for modular addition start forming approximately at the start of the training: the gradient was mostly an arrow towards memorization, but also, immediately from the initialization of the weights, a bit of an arrow pointing towards the general algorithm. The circuits were gradually tuned throughout the training. The noticeable change in the test loss starts occurring when the circuits are already almost right.) A path through the loss landscape visible in 3D doesn't correspond to how and what the neural network is actually learning. Almost all of the changes to the loss are due to the increasingly good implementation of Algorithm 1; but apparently, the entire time, the gradient also points towards some faraway implementation of Algorithm 2. Somehow, the direction in which Algorithm 2 lies is also visible to the derivative, and moving the parameters in the direction the gradient points means mostly increasingly implementing Algorithm 1, and also increasingly implementing the faraway Algorithm 2. "Grokking", visible in the test loss, is due to the change that happens when the parameters already implement Algorithm 2 accurately enough for the switch from mostly outputting the results of an implementation of Algorithm 1 to the results of an improving implementation of Algorithm 2 not to hurt the performance. Once it's the case, the neural network puts more weight into Algorithm 2 and at the same time quickly tunes it to be even more accurate (which is increasingly easy as the output is increasingly determined by the implementation of Algorithm 2). This is something many people seem to have missed. I did not expect it to be the case, was surprised, and updated how I think about loss landscapes. Does this generalize? Maybe. I'm not sure whether it's correct to generalize from the mechanistic interpretability of grokking analysis to neural networks in general, real LLMs are under-parametrised while the grokking model is very over-parameterised, but I guess it might be reasonable to expect that this is how deep learning generally works. People seem to think that multi-dimensional loss landscapes of neural networks have basins for specific algorithms, and neural networks get into these depending on how relatively large these basins are, which might be caused by how simple the algorithms are, how path-depe...

Formation of Lunar Basins from Impacts of Leftover Planetesimals by David Nesvorny et al. on Tuesday 22 November The Moon holds important clues to the early evolution of the Solar System. Some 50 impact basins (crater diameter D>300 km) have been recognized on the lunar surface, implying that the early impact flux was much higher than it is now. The basin-forming impactors were suspected to be asteroids released from an inner extension of the main belt (1.8-2.0 au). Here we show that most impactors were instead rocky planetesimals left behind at 0.5-1.5 au after the terrestrial planet accretion. The number of basins expected from impacts of leftover planetesimals largely exceeds the number of known lunar basins, suggesting that the first 200 Myr of impacts is not recorded on the lunar surface. The Imbrium basin formation (age 3.92 Gyr; impactor diameter d~100 km) occurs with a 15-35% probability in our model. Imbrium must have formed unusually late to have only two smaller basins (Orientale and Schrodinger) forming afterwards. The model predicts 20 d>10-km impacts on the Earth 2.5-3.5 Gyr ago (Ga), which is comparable to the number of known spherule beds in the late Archean. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2211.10478v1

Join us on another fun filled episode of the UIntah Basement.

Over 90% of current oil and gas production comes from around 40 traditional ‘super basins.'Across the preceding decades, production came from these traditional super basins – giant fields and established infrastructure which guaranteed the lowest costs for supply.Now the world's demand for lower emissions is forcing change on this legacy industry. Some basins are fit for the future and some are not. Low cost and low carbon resources must become the future of oil and gas. Some traditional super basins will evolve into what we'll call the Energy Super Basins of the future, and some will be left behind.For the upstream industry to become more sustainable, it must focus on resources co-located with both plentiful clean electricity and CCS potential. These are the Energy Super Basins of the future. The remaining traditional basins are disadvantaged and face being left behind.On the podcast: host Liz Dennett is joined by Andrew Latham, Vice President of Energy Research, to explore how traditional super basins can and must transition to new ‘energy super basins'; a mix of plentiful renewable electricity, established oil and gas resources and Hub-scale CCS.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Vivakor Inc CEO Matt Nicosia tells Proactive the group has plans to acquire two companies with assets in the key US oil states of Louisiana and Texas in a deal worth around $37.4 million. Nicosia says the company struck a definitive agreement to acquire Silver Fuels Delhi LLC, operating in Louisiana, and White Claw Colorado City LLC, which operates in Texas. California-based Vivakor said the acquisitions will allow the company to enter a synergistic segment of the energy industry with the combination of a crude oil gathering, storage, and transportation facility, which feature long-term ten-year take or pay contracts.

In this interview I'm joined by Bernadette Millard to discuss her journey of establishing an organic family farm in the desert borderlands of Oman. In previous discussions I've repeatedly been informed of the alarming rate that intensive agriculture is depleting soils across the globe. This means that the quantity of organic carbon within the soil is being reduced year on year, which dramatically impacts the land's ability to support plant growth and retain water. It's a devastating issue that can escalate to the point that farm land becomes more like a desert, and the effect this has on the climate is just as worrying as loosing all of that productive space. So this discussion is hugely inspirational. It's a case study in taking things in the other direction; from unproductive desert land, to a thriving, abundant oasis! It's proof that we can turn things around. And what's even more encouraging is it's a project that was set up without prior experience. Of course it's a journey of continued discovery and I'm delighted that Bernadette was able to share the steps that they've been on along the way. We discuss how they made a start at this challenging location, and learn about the variety and abundance of produce that's now being grown - all organically, and in methods that are building soil and increasing production every year. We also consider the potential to scale these traditional approaches to agriculture and the need to build better routes to market for small scale organic farmers.

Tarun Chitra, in addition to being Founder and CEO of Gauntlet, is a gigabrain, polymath type in the Ethereum space. His fluency in mathematics results in a creative, almost artistic approach to a traditionally rigorous and analytical field.   Perhaps related to his search for beauty, Tarun observes the structural changing of massive systems happening in the broader geopolitical ecosystem today. We explore the relationship between regulation and finance in a unique light. Finance itself is fundamentally a legal practice—it's money plus law.   Finance becomes more elegant with smart contracts, and we muse on the idea that broader governance structures can improve with smart contracts as well. Is code law? Can we generalize capital efficiency?   ------

On his last night with his disciples, Jesus washed their feet. This was a demonstration of humility and service, but also much more. In this message we look at this action and what it tells us about Jesus and also what we are invited into.

As most North Dakotan's know, the Red River and its tributaries flow into Hudson Bay while the Missouri River and its tributaries flow into the Gulf of Mexico. It might surprise you but there are several major drainage basins in the state. The maps I have seen vary somewhat, but often place the Missouri Coteau within the Missouri River drainage and the Prairie Coteau and Turtle Mountain in the Hudson Bay drainage even though they are largely pothole country with closed drainage.

Filling a basin with water in the upper room, our Lord Jesus Christ washed the feet of His disciples. He then tenderly dried each foot with a towel He had hung around His waist. This included the two feet belonging to Judas. Christ knew Judas would betray Him in a few hours. Still, He washed Judas's feet, telling His disciples, “And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other's feet” (John 13:14). Christ used the basin and towel to demonstrate His healing, cleansing love for us and to call all of us to demonstrate that love to one another. The next day, after Christ's arrest and trial, another man used another basin and towel for a different purpose. In front of a screaming mob, Pontius Pilate used them to try to wash away his responsibility for Christ's death. To prevent a political uprising, Pilate ordered that Christ be beaten, and then he handed Him over for crucifixion. Pilate allowed people to execute Christ, who he had found not guilty (John 19:1-16). Two basins. Two towels. Jesus used His to make His disciples clean and renewed, free from the stains of sin. Pontius Pilate used his basin and towel to try to do the same for himself. But it didn't work. Jesus alone has the power to wash us, to free us of all sin. Only His death and resurrection can make us clean and forgive our wrongdoing. And Jesus offers this forgiveness to each of us freely and lovingly. • Kathy Irey • Jesus's love and forgiveness is more powerful than any sin. What needs to be restored and made new in your life today? Consider taking some time to bring this to Jesus in prayer. • How can you remind those around you of Jesus's love and forgiveness? “I [Jesus] have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you.” John 13:15 (NLT)

In the book of John, Jesus washed his disciples feet at Passover. Pastor Bobby breaks down the reason why and how Jesus used this act to show us how to be a servant to others.
