The filter, which can be either linear or nonlinear, changes the original chaotic signal's properties in measurable ways. The study of filtered chaos is important for applications where chaotic signals are used, or where they pass through instruments or communication channels that act as filters. Key conceptsChaos: A type of behavior in a deterministic system that is highly sensitive to initial conditions. This is popularly known as the butterfly effect, where small changes can lead to large, seemingly random differences in the system's future state.Chaotic signal: The time series of data produced by a chaotic system, which appears random but is governed by deterministic rules.Filter: A process or device that removes unwanted components or features from a signal. For example, a low-pass filter removes high-frequency components, while a band-pass filter allows only a certain range of frequencies to pass through. Effects of filtering chaosThe main impact of filtering a chaotic signal is that the resulting signal may exhibit very different statistical and geometric properties than the original chaos.Changes in dimensionality: Filtering can increase the observed fractal dimension of a chaotic system. This means that after passing through a filter, the signal's complex, space-filling geometric structure can appear even more complicated. This distortion is particularly noticeable with low-pass filters.Signal modification: Filters alter the amplitude and frequency characteristics of a signal. When a chaotic signal is filtered, this can change its apparent "randomness," which affects how it might be used in a communications system.Preservation of symbolic dynamics: Surprisingly, while filtering can affect the geometric shape of a chaotic attractor, it may leave certain symbolic characteristics intact. For instance, a signal's topological entropy—a measure of its complexity—can be invariant even after filtering. Applications of filtered chaosUnderstanding how filters affect chaotic signals is critical in several engineering and scientific applications.Secure communication: One method of secure communication, known as "chaos pass filtering," mixes a secret message with a chaotic signal before transmission. A synchronized chaotic system on the receiving end can then filter out the chaotic carrier signal to recover the message.Radar and signal detection: Researchers have explored the use of "matched filters" designed to detect specific chaotic waveforms in the presence of noise. This can be used for improved signal detection and signal-to-noise ratio in applications like radar.Real-time applications: In fields like electrical engineering and control systems, chaotic modeling is used for various purposes, from synchronizing systems to mitigating radio-frequency interference. Filters are essential tools for managing and processing these chaotic signals in real-time.Geophysical modeling: Filtering techniques are used with high-dimensional chaotic systems, such as atmospheric and climate models. Due to the high sensitivity and vast scale of these systems, researchers use filters to make sense of noisy observations and produce probabilistic estimates of the system's state.
Interview with Pascal Hamelin, President & CEO of Abcourt Mines Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/abcourt-mines-tsxvabi-gold-producer-ready-to-restart-sleeping-giant-mine-7160Recording date: 15th September 2025Abcourt Mines (TSXV:ABI) has successfully completed its first gold pour at the Sleeping Giant Mine in Quebec, marking a critical transition from development company to gold producer. Speaking at the Denver Gold Forum, President and CEO Pascal Hamelin outlined an aggressive production scaling strategy designed to capitalize on favorable gold market conditions.The company plans to ramp production from zero to 30,000 ounces annually within 18 months, following a detailed preliminary assessment released in 2023. This production target represents only 45% of the mill's total capacity, providing significant room for future expansion to potentially 60,000-70,000 ounces annually. The scalability provides multiple expansion avenues as the company develops additional mining fronts within the existing operation.Operationally, Abcourt maintains a strong cost structure with all-in sustaining costs projected at $1,600 USD per ounce and monthly operating costs of approximately $4 million. At current gold prices exceeding $3,600 per ounce, this creates substantial margins and positions the company for rapid cash flow generation.Beyond the Sleeping Giant operation, Abcourt has identified significant exploration potential at its Flordin project. The 2024 discovery exposed a vein measuring 300 meters long by over 10 meters wide, with drilling confirming continuity to 400 meters depth. Geophysical surveys suggest the vein could extend up to 2 kilometers in length, with management projecting a four to five-year timeline to operational status.The company maintains a portfolio of 15 projects within trucking distance of the Sleeping Giant mill, enabling potential infrastructure sharing and operational synergies. With plans for eventual share buybacks rather than dividends to optimize tax efficiency for shareholders, Abcourt appears positioned to benefit from sustained precious metals strength while building a scalable production platform in Quebec's mining-friendly jurisdiction.View Abcourt Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/abcourt-mines-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
As usual there is a connection through a number of episodes going on here. Back when interviewed Stephanie May, she introduced me to global base maps made by various tech companies. I jumped at the opportunity to continue the theme when I came across Jordan Regenie's write up of his involvement in Bing Maps. He mentioned a company participating in that effort was Compass Data so I dutifully pursued them for an episode and got Hayden Howard. After that he gave me a free ticket to GeoWeek and I jumped on a flight from Atlanta to a SHOCKINGLY cold Denver for a stunned, disoriented walk around the exhibit hall for a few hours talking to as many companies as I could. I came across several ground penetrating radar solutions. This included one on a towball which could detect buried services at highway speeds (Impulse Radar). Impressive stuff. I also saw the other end of the spectrum, pushcarts which are used to produce the fluoro graffiti footpath markings you see about buried gas, power, fibre optic lines (Screening Eagle).I was curious about starting my own business, so I kept investigating. I went to a Georgia Geospatial Association networking event in Atlanta soon after and got talking with the CEO Michael Bellrose of Tri-Global Technologies, a positioning company. He put me in touch with Dan Bigman, CEO of Bigman Geophysical. And that's how some of these episodes happen! Literally a journey across American geospatial to hunt down these conversations for you. It was a good one. Dan told us a CSI type story to start with, about how archaeology and ground penetrating radar can be used for crime scene investigation. It was gruesome, but a good illustration of how our broader discipline benefits society - something which has been a common theme the past string of episodes about SAR for bushfire and warzone damage assessment. Here we continue the radar theme but using different, more proximate technology, requiring someone to push a device over the ground rather than wait for a satellite. Do I want to start such a business myself? Well it is tempting. A second hand pushcart is only about $15,000. With another $5k around that with a website, marketing and a cheap truck one could get to hustling the pavement. Thanks Dan for being my second Atlanta guest as I begin to orient myself regarding opportunities in America.

In this episode, Alex starts by talking about why he thinks we are doomed. Tucker Carlson and others are giving weight to a new conspiracy about the “geophysical event” that combines climate denialism, anti-elitism, government skepticism, QAnon, and more. The event sounds like it is out of a Hollywood, apocalypse movie. Next, Trump is mad at Bruce Springsteen after comments he made at a concert in England and he is threatening to investigate the Boss. Alex talks about Trump's intimidation that is chilling for free speech. Finally, Alex talks about the “One Big, Beautiful Bill” that the House passed in the early morning. Many don't know what is in the bill, but it is clear that it will cut taxes for the wealthy, cut benefits for those in need, and spike deficits even more.

Over the past decade, significant progress has been made in elucidating their structure and interconnections, particularly for the resolved and reversible fluid components. This advancement has largely been driven by Hamiltonian approaches, encompassing both Hamilton's principle of least action and the associated symplectic structure. Moreover, these insights have influenced the development of numerical methods in production-ready models.This progress shifts attention toward the unresolved and irreversible processes, where mathematical and theoretical foundations remain scarce—and may continue to be so. I will challenge the notion that partial differential equations are all that is needed, and highlight areas where theoretical progress seems possible. Hopefully, this perspective can shed light on the respective roles of physics-based and data-driven components in comprehensive models.Thomas DubosThomas Dubos studied mathematics and physics at the École Normale Supérieure (Paris) and obtained his Ph.D. in 2002 at the Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique (LMD), focusing on transport through two-dimensional turbulence. As Assistant Professor and then Professor at LMD/École Polytechnique, his research focused on geophysical turbulence and hydrodynamics. More recently, he has used Hamiltonian methods to uncover the structure and connections of existing geophysical models, to derive new models, and to develop numerical methods with desirable physical properties. This fundamental work has contributed to the development of the LMDZ, the atmospheric general circulation model developed at LMD, which is part of the Earth System Model at the Institut Pierre-Simon Laplace (IPSL).

Data assimilation (DA) is critical to adjust the initial condition of meteorological forecasts, to estimate model parameters, and produce accurate re-analysis datasets. It has been at the heart of all operational weather forecasts for the past 50 years. Very recently, artificial intelligence (AI) and in particular deep learning, has begun being used as a tool to improve classical DA, to be combined with DA algorithmic schemes, or even to offer a substitute for DA.I will give an overview of the recent achievements and promising routes offered by AI into DA.For instance, ML can be leveraged in the regularisation of ensemble-based DA, in the solvers of variational DA methods, for generating or augmenting ensembles in DA, for building surrogates of the tangent linear and adjoint meteorological models to be used within DA, to learn a model error correction within a weak-constraint 4D-Var framework, or, ultimately, as a replacement for the DA analysis. I will also present an example where AI unveils new DA methods that were overlooked so far by the research community.Marc BocquetMarc Bocquet holds a Ph.D. from École Polytechnique and has an Habilitation delivered by Sorbonne University. He was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Warwick and then at the University of Oxford. He is currently deputy director of CEREA, a laboratory of École nationale des ponts et chaussées and EDF R&D, and a professor at École nationale des ponts et chaussées, Institut Polytechnique de Paris. He works on data assimilation, inverse problems and statistical learning applied to the geosciences. He develops mathematical methods to better estimate the state of the atmosphere, of the ocean and the climate, as well as their constituents, using massive observations and complex models. He has published 115 papers and two books. He is associate editor of several peer-reviewed journals in the geosciences, and a Distinguished Research Fellow of the world's most renowned weather forecasting centre, the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF).

Interview with Ben Pullinger, President & CEO of ATEX Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/atex-resources-tsxvatx-slated-growth-with-strategic-major-investment-on-large-copper-asset-6272Recording date: 4th March 2025ATEX Resources is making significant progress at its Valeriano Copper-Gold project in Chile, where its phase five drill program is delivering the best results to date. The company has evolved from focusing solely on a large porphyry resource to also emphasizing newly discovered high-grade breccia zones above the main deposit.These high-grade zones, which show consistent mineralization of 2% copper equivalent over 100-200 meter intervals, could contain 30-50 million tons of material representing $6-10 billion in in-situ value. Each ton of this material has an estimated gross value of $200, potentially generating around $100 per ton in margin after costs.A significant development for ATEX has been its partnership with Agnico Eagle, which brings financial stability and technical expertise. This partnership aligns with a growing industry trend toward consortium-based development of large copper projects, especially in Chile's emerging world-class copper district where companies like Teck, Newmont, Anglo Gold, and Freeport-McMoRan are active.ATEX is well-capitalized with approximately $50 million Canadian in cash and an additional $90 million in warrants, allowing for continued aggressive exploration. The company is planning a phase six drilling program to test additional targets identified through geophysical work.Geophysical surveys have identified multiple targets with signatures similar to the already-drilled high-grade zones. These signatures occur at the intersection of northeast and northwest structural features, with current interpretation suggesting there could be up to four or five high-grade breccia zones within the property.The upcoming resource update is expected to show significant growth from the 2023 estimate, which established 200 million tons at approximately 1% copper equivalent in the porphyry system. The update will likely include the newly discovered high-grade zones and additional indicated resources with higher confidence.ATEX plans to advance toward economic studies once it has fully defined the highest-value portions of the deposit. The company believes that the district has potential for 200+ years of production, representing a long-term opportunity in a market facing supply challenges.According to industry forecasts, copper demand will require adding "an Escondida every two years." Projects like Valeriano, with high-grade components that can be developed at smaller scales initially and then expanded, are becoming increasingly attractive in this environment of growing global copper demand.View ATEX Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/atex-resources-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Interview with Jeffrey R. Wilson, President & CEO of Precipitate Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/precipitate-gold-tsxvprg-unlocking-dominican-republics-promising-high-grade-gold-projects-6321Recording date: 2nd March 2025Precipitate Gold Corporation has successfully renegotiated its earn-in agreement with Barrick Gold, significantly increasing the potential investment from $10 million to $22 million while extending the timeline to 2030. According to President and CEO Jeff Wilson, Barrick has already invested approximately $7 million in the project.The strategic value of Precipitate's property lies in its location surrounding Barrick's Tier 1 Pueblo Viejo mine in the Dominican Republic. The land package borders this major mining operation on three sides, providing Barrick with expansion potential for one of their flagship properties. The agreement includes an "all or nothing" structure that protects Precipitate's interests. If Barrick discontinues exploration, Precipitate regains 100% ownership, and should the project advance to a 70/30 joint venture, Precipitate maintains a carried interest.Recent regulatory developments in the Dominican Republic have created a more favorable environment for mining companies. Previously, GoldQuest's Romero project had been stalled due to requirements for presidential approval of mining licenses. The regulatory process has been modified to allow companies to complete environmental impact studies and feasibility studies before final licensing decisions, creating a clearer pathway to development. This change has also positively affected Unigold and boosted investor confidence in the jurisdiction.Precipitate is in a strong financial position with approximately $5 million in cash from a previous sale to Barrick. The company has adopted a patient approach to capital deployment, preserving resources during uncertain times. Cost advantages include co-ownership of drilling equipment with GoldQuest, acquired from a bankrupt contractor at a significant discount.For 2025, Precipitate is preparing exploration programs focusing on targets identified through ongoing groundwork. Geophysical surveys, particularly ground IP, will play a key role in refining drill targets. Wilson indicated that initial drilling would be measured rather than aggressive to preserve financial flexibility.The Dominican Republic government has shown increased support for mining, with ministry officials actively engaging with mining companies. Mining currently contributes approximately 43% to the country's economy, primarily from Barrick's Pueblo Viejo operation. However, with production gradually diminishing, the government recognizes the need to develop new mines and has adopted a more pro-business stance in its second term, extending support through both the Ministry of Energy and Mines and the Environment Ministry.View Precipitate Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/precipitate-gold-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Beyond expanding reserves, this acquisition allows Petro-Victory to maximize the substantial investments made over the past five years by its Subsurface, Engineering, and Operations teams in the Potiguar Basin. The company currently operates three oil-producing fields and 34 exploration blocks in the region. Over the last five years, Petro-Victory has reprocessed and merged 12 volumes of 3D seismic data, covering more than 1,500 km², including data on the newly acquired fields. The company has also conducted extensive hydrocarbon basin analysis, along with in-depth Geological, Geophysical, and Petrophysical interpretation to optimize production potential. With this acquisition, Petro-Victory reinforces its commitment to growth, efficiency, and operational excellence, positioning itself as a key player in the Brazilian oil and gas sector. #proactiveinvestros #prto-victoryenergycorp #tsxv #vry #OilProduction #BrazilEnergy #EnergySector #CEOInterview #LatinAmericaBusiness #OilandGas #BrazilianEconomy #ESGInitiatives #SustainableEnergy #OilIndustryInsights
Power Nickel Inc CEO Terry Lynch joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share the results from three drill holes from the fall campaign at the Nisk Project, aimed at testing the depth and western extensions of the Lion Zone. Drill hole PN-24-079 targeted the interpreted plunge of the Lion Zone below Hole PN-24-078, successfully intersecting the main high-grade zone. Hole PN-24-080, drilled approximately 75 meters west of PN-24-079, intersected the mineralized horizon above the plunge but returned sporadic metal values. Drill hole PN-24-081, testing approximately 100 meters below PN-24-080, intersected the top edge of the main Lion Zone and yielded 4.85 meters grading 1.85% CuEq¹. Looking ahead, Lynch highlighted that the 2025 exploration program is now underway. Technical crews are currently processing the remaining December drill core, preparing winter drill roads and pads, and upgrading core logging and sampling facilities to accommodate multiple drills. Drilling has already commenced, with the first rig active at the initial 2025 site. By early February, a second drill will be operational, with a third rig joining by mid-February, significantly increasing the capacity to deliver faster results and expedite resource building. In addition to drilling, interpretations of the 2024 electromagnetic (EM) ground and borehole surveys are expected to identify multiple conductive targets. These findings will guide exploration efforts, extending the Lion Zone and identifying additional mineralized zones along several kilometers of strike. The geophysical targets are set to provide ample exploration opportunities to keep the expanded drill fleet engaged throughout the winter campaign. #proactiveinvestors #powernickelinc #tsxv #pnpn #otcqb #cmetf #nickel #mining #invest #investingMiningUpdates #CopperExploration #DrillingCampaign #NickelResources #ResourceExpansion #2025Goals #MiningNews #ElectromagneticSurvey #MineralExploration

Proactive's Tylah Tully breaks down ‘Just the Facts' of the latest news from Stellar Resources Ltd (ASX:SRZ, OTC:SLROF). The company has received a record high-grade tin intersection of 20.9 metres at 1.97% tin from the Severn deposit at its Heemskirk Tin Project in Western Tasmania. The intersection includes 14.8 metres at 2.4% tin and 5.9 metres at 3.36% tin, making it the best recorded based on grade thickness. At Queen Hill, drill hole ZQ165 identified a northern extension with 4 metres at 0.52% tin. The company has completed 8 of 24 planned drill holes and mineralisation at Severn remains open down plunge. Geophysical surveys will commence in December to support resource expansion. Stellar is progressing prefeasibility and baseline environmental studies, with a focus on upgrading inferred material to indicated resources. A recent scoping study confirmed a 10-year mine life based on indicated resources, with further resource growth anticipated in a 2025 update. The company is operating three drill rigs onsite to refine and expand the resource base and plans a downhole electromagnetic survey next month. #ProactiveInvestors #StellarResources #ASX #JusttheFacts #TinMining, #HeemskirkProject, #ASXUpdates, #ResourceExpansion, #HighGradeTin, #MiningExploration, #DrillingProgram, #PrefeasibilityStudy, #WesternTasmania, #GeophysicalSurvey, #MineralResources, #QueenHill, #SevernDeposit, #MetalsInvesting, #BaseMetals, #InfillDrilling, #TinExploration, #MiningInvestments, #LongLifeMining
Fathom Nickel CEO Ian Fraser joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the results of an unmanned drone high-resolution geophysical survey at the Gochager Lake Property during a discussion with Proactive. Conducted on August 7, the survey covered 367.2 line-kilometers and utilized drone technology for cost-efficient, high-resolution magnetic data collection. The survey, flown over a 9.58 km² area, included traverse and tie lines spaced at 30 meters and 300 meters respectively. The survey confirmed the effectiveness of UAV technology in capturing valuable geophysical insights, correlating well with soil geochemistry data from June 2024. One notable feature identified is an intriguing "eye-like" signal within the expanded footprint of the survey area, which may indicate a dilatant zone within a broad regional feature. This feature could potentially represent the magma conduit of the historic Gochager Lake deposit. Fraser emphasized that these results significantly enhance the company's understanding of the structural complexity of the deposit area, further aiding future exploration efforts. #FathomNickel, #NickelExploration, #MiningUpdate, #GochagerLake, #MagmaticDeposits, #SoilGeochemistry, #NickelCopperCobalt, #MiningSurvey, #ExplorationUpdate, #UltramaficRocks, #GabbroIntrusion, #Mineralization, #MiningPotential, #MallLake, #FieldProgram, #DrillingPlans, #MiningGeology, #ResourceExpansion, #MineralExploration, #CEOUpdate #ProactiveInvestors #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews
John Miniotis, President and CEO and David O'Connor, Chief Geologist of AbraSilver Resource Corp (TSX.V:ABRA – OTCQX:ABBRF), join us to review more drill holes that have been released from the ongoing 20,000 meter Phase 4 diamond drill campaign expanding the Oculto Zone to the NorthEast and the JAC Zone to the SouthEast, on their wholly-owned Diablillos property in Salta Province, Argentina. We also discuss the new TITAN geophysical survey results and targeting for upcoming drilling of some porphyry targets at Cerro Blanco and Cerro Viejo. We start off having John and Dave recap the recent wide-intercept silver mineralization returned from the next batch of drill holes released from expanding the Oculto and JAC areas.Holes DDH 24-017, DDH 24-021 and DDH 24-024 were drilled in the Oculto northeast area and designed to expand the existing known shallow mineralization. Holes DDH 24-020 and DDH 24-023 were step-out holes in the JAC southwest area that were drilled to extend the existing Mineral Resources beyond the current conceptual open pit boundary. Next we discussed the TITAN geophysical survey results have come back helping to target a couple of deeper drill holes to explore for an underlying copper and gold porphyry system at both the Cerro Blanco and Cerro Viejo targets. This area is located approximately 3.5 km northeast of the Oculto deposit, and drilling in this area is expected to commence by the end of September. Additionally, another target Cerro Bayo, nearby the Oculto deposit, will be drilled, looking for more near-surface high-grade silver and gold oxide mineralization to expand and extend the front-end economics of a project development scenario. Wrapping up, John outlines the company is still very cashed up to finish the ongoing Phase 4 drill program, and complete the upcoming Pre-Feasibility Study, all while heading into next year with plenty of funds left over to continue working on expanding and derisking the Diablillos Project.

In this episode, Chad Peters from Ridgeline Minerals provides an update on the geophysical work data from the Selena project, indicating potential porphyry targets at depth. The data suggests the presence of a deep buried porphyry system, which could be a significant discovery. The company is considering partnering with a larger company to further explore the project. Additionally, the conversation touches on the earning agreement between Riley Gold and Kinross, highlighting the prospectivity of the Cortez trend in Nevada.
In this episode, we chat with Steve Cope, President and CEO at Silver Viper Minerals Corp who are a Canadian-based junior mineral exploration company focused on precious metals exploration in Sonora, Mexico, and operates its 100% owned La Virginia Gold-Silver Project, acquired from the most recent operator, Pan American Silver Corp. Steve's mining experience has covered a wide range of areas including financing companies, project evaluation, investor relations, and mergers and acquisitions. He has been with Silver Viper since 2016. Steve shares his story and gives us an update on Silver Viper Minerals, whats happening in the Mexican mining industry, and discusses the silver market in more detail around supply and demand and pricing. KEY TAKEAWAYS Silver Viper is taking a cautious approach to capital allocation, focusing on mapping, sampling, and exploring new areas to understand the project better. The company has discovered new areas on the project, indicating potential drilling targets and new discoveries beyond El Rubi, showcasing the project's exploration potential. Geophysical work has revealed a deep target below El Rubi, suggesting a significant gold, silver, and base metal system that could be a game-changer for Silver Viper. With an updated resource estimate expected at the end of the year, Silver Viper aims to expand its resource base, potentially exceeding a million ounces equivalent with room for further growth. Despite current challenges, a positive market shift could significantly benefit Silver Viper, potentially leading to substantial growth and increased investor interest in the company. BEST MOMENTS "We made our discovery at the El Rubi area after taking over the project. It's, you know, we produce some pretty spectacular grades." "The AMLO regime has not been the best for mining companies and mining exploration companies. It hasn't affected our exploration work." "It's the first time we've ever been paused and not drilling on the project and we've really been playing catch up on mapping, sampling, exploring the project." "You look at a company like Pan American Silver, who was the number two silver producer in the world, and for that company to survive, they become a gold company."

You are living on a planet that is 1.1°C hotter than 100 years ago. By 2100, your future family members could be living in a 3°C world. This means mass deaths from extreme heat. Failing agriculture and food scarcity. Lack of drinkable water. Mass climate migration. Cities underwater. Civil unrest, and other dangers that you may not have even thought about. It's not IF these things will happen, it's how soon and how bad it will get. Buckle up.In this episode, we look at the path we are currently on and attempt to illustrate what daily life could be like as the earth warms to 3°C. We explore where we might adapt and where adaptation could be impossible. With our four guests, we look at just how dependent we are on natural systems and talk about what will happen as these systems break down. We explore the changes that are already happening in food production and what we will have to do as temperatures rise and weather patterns shift, and speak to how the climate crisis is going to change myriad other aspects of our lives on Earth. Our guests are some of the top scientists and economists who have studied these issues for decades, written sections of IPCC reports, and books, and compiled meta-studies of existing literature. Each one echoes the same message - Life at 3°C is very, very bad: but that doesn't mean it's inevitable. While there is still time to prevent further danger, the window is closing.In this episode, our guests include: Dr. Bill McGuire, Emeritus Professor of Geophysical & Climate Hazards at University College London, author of several books including Hothouse Earth.Dr. Camielle Paramsean, Professor at CNRS (SETE - Experimental and Theoretical Ecology)Dr. Edmond Totin, Research Scientist at ICRISATDr. Peter Howard, Economic Fellow at Institute for Policy IntegrityResources: Hothouse Earth (Bill McGuire)Ministry for the Future (Kim Stanley Robinson)The Sixth Extinction (Elizabeth Kolbert)Special Report: Global Warming of 1.5C (IPCC)Extreme Heat Will Change Us (New York Times)UN Emissions Gap Report 2022 covers how policies currently in place point to a 2.8°C temperature rise by the end of the century.Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (National Weather Service)IPCC 6th Assessment Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability - Authors Camille Parmesan (Chapter 2: Terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems and their services), Edmond Totin (Chapter 9:...
Following Shackleton's death in 1922 which marked the end of the Heroic Age in Antarctic history, no major expedition occurred to Antarctica until 1928 when a naval aviator, Richard Byrd, ventured south with ambitions to be the first person to fly over the south pole. In this podcast, I provide the history of Byrd's expedition and his research station Little America on the Ross Ice Shelf. In addition, I discuss the territorial claims that were being made for parts of the Antarctic continent by that time and the events leading up to the International Geophysical Year of 1957-1958 when Antarctica became the focus of research with 40 stations established there by 12 nations. The IGY became a turning point in Antarctic history leading to the signing of the Antarctic Treaty in 1959.
Scientists" are now proposing to use moon dust to cool Earth, the ranks of academia continue to lose credibility with each passing day. Micro plastic pollution is in every breath we take. Is it all just from decomposing trash? Or is there much more to the story? The US government is handing out 374 billion dollars that it says will create 100,000 new "green jobs", do you believe them? Geophysical anomalies are wreaking havoc on planet Earth and populations. Is it all just nature behaving badly? How much longer can we survive on a completely polluted planet with life support systems that are breaking down at blinding speed? The latest installment of Global Alert News is below.
#Gold Spikes Above $1900 Level Following Latest CPI Reading Despite a significantly higher Fed funds rate, quantitative tightening, and higher interest rates around the globe, the gold price broke through the $1900 level on Thursday following the latest government #inflation report. A report that showed a slight reduction of the inflation rate relative to last month. Which of course leaves one to wonder what might happen to gold and #silver prices when the inflation rate is low enough for the Fed to stop hiking. Or what would happen to the precious metals prices if the Fed eventually sees conditions in the financial markets that force it to begin lowering rates again, or restarting quantitative easing. Which many feel is a mathematical certainty. So in today's show we talk about the latest report and how it's affecting the markets with Steve Cope of Silver Viper Minerals. Who also talks about the margins that the gold and silver miners are facing as their production costs have risen, and how that's impacting the market. Steve also comments on the recent report of Saudi Arabia's massive metals investment plan, Janet Yellen's upcoming plan to address the debt ceiling, and a whole lot more.

On this episode, host's Peter Ravella and Tyler Buckingham welcome Dr. Brian McFall and Dr. Shelley Whitmeyer to the show to talk about SandSnap, a cool new citizen science tool that they developed to help advance the understanding of sand grain size along the American shoreline, and beyond. Geophysical coastal models rely on sand grain characteristics, which can vary significantly up and down the coast. By collecting images of beach sand (with a US coin for size reference), the SandSnap algorithm can provide nearly instantaneous grain size analysis. The image, its GPS location, and the corresponding grain size data are then saved in a publicly accessible database for modelers to use to better predict coastal processes. Brian and Shelley talk us through the creation of SandSnap (which began as an email authored by Shelley), how they are improving the accuracy of the system, and how broad public participation in SandSnap can help improve our scientific understanding of the Nation's coasts. Brian McFall is a coastal engineer at the U.S. Army Engineering Research and Development Center (ERDC) with an expertise in wave mechanics and coastal morphological evolution. While working for ERDC he has also created the Sediment Mobility Tool (SMT) which calculates how often sediment in a nearshore berm will be mobilized and where it is likely to go. Shelley Whitmeyer is an assistant professor as James Madison University where she teaches coastal science. It's a great show, only on ASPN!
It's not your imagination, summers have been getting hotter and hotter with extreme heatwaves occurring earlier and more frequently. But why is this happening and can we better predict heatwaves in advance to give people time to prepare? In June of 2021, an unprecedented heatwave shocked the Pacific Northwest and Canada. It ended up being one of the most deadly extreme weather events in the region. But no one could figure out how it occurred, until one Professor of Geophysical Science at the University of Chicago, Noboru Nakamura, saw it as an opportunity to test a new theoretical framework he had developed for understanding atmospheric phenomena. On this episode, we discuss the science of heatwaves, the mystery behind the Pacific Northwest heatwave, and how Nakamura's framework can be used to better understand and predict climate change and other extreme weather events.
In this episode of Coffee Talk, we're getting to know Geotechnical Department Manager Paul Pinkerton in our Frederick, MD office. He will share about vibration monitoring and geophysical services, the entrepreneurial spirit of the company allowing him to grow the services he's interested in and how these services have impacted a variety of clients. Resources mentioned: Clive Cussler, author Some of Paul's key takeaways on vibration monitoring and geophysical services: Geophysical services are nondestructive exploration methods to understand what's going on underneath the earth where we can't see it. Methods include Seismic Refraction, ReMi, electrical resistivity, Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Electromagnetics. Difference between geophysical a vibration monitoring services is about intent. Geophysics trying to find a problem in a nondestructive way, while vibration monitoring is about measuring the effects of construction activities on adjacent structures. Our services have helped university, science laboratories and hospitals Coffee Talk: From the Ground Up is an ECS Podcast created to build intentional connections with our employees.

In 1955, The USS Wyandot set out for Antarctica as part of the US Navy's Operation Deep Freeze. My father, William R. Goodwin, was one of the Seabees on board. This episode features an interview with him that tells his story. It is accompanied by my re-imagining of the sea shanty Wellerman as The Wyandot Comes with new lyrics that tell my father's story.In 1957, The International Geophysical Year would bring scientists from eleven countries to Antarctica to study the geophysics of our planet. The objective of Operation Deep Freeze was to establish a Naval airstrip at McMurdo Sound, to be used as a staging ground for building a base at the South Pole the following summer. This episode features stories of life and death on the highest and coldest continent, early signs of climate change, powdered potatoes, 100 proof moonshine, and... a sea shanty!SHOW LINKSThe Wyandot Comes (complete song)Operation Deep FreezeUSS WyandotSeabeesThe race to the South PoleSacrifice Amid the Ice: Facing Facts on the Scott ExpeditionAmundsen's South Pole expeditionThe Antarctican SocietyRobert Falcon ScottVIDEO: Task Force 43 (Naval History and Heritage Youtube Channel)VIDEO: Operation Deep Freeze Phase 2International Geophysical Year (wiki)NASA International Geophysical YearDeath of Richard WilliamsWellermanSea Shanties on TikTok6 levels of Wellerman (Sea Shanty) (Youtube Guitar Tutorial by Capo X)Antarctic Ice Sheet melting to lift sea level higher than thought, study saysAntarctica Melts Under Its Hottest Days on RecordCHAPTERS[00:00] Intro[01:54] The Death of Robert Falcon Scott[04:11] Operation Deep Freeze[08:08] The Wyandot Comes: Part 1[09:50] Old Grape Jelly[11:45] The Mechanic Who Drove the Weasel[13:48] The Wyandot Comes: Part 2[14:54] Drinking and Dying[19:52] The Wyandot Comes: Part 3[20:37] Let's get Geophysical[25:18] Adventures Make for Friendships Long[35:15] The Wyandot Comes: Part 4[36:06] Outro
