Podcasts about Water

Epiphytes of one kind or another are ubiquitous components of ecosystems around the globe, but we still know little about what they are doing up in the forest canopy. For instance, how do epiphytes influence the water cycle of various ecosystems? Figuring out how epiphytes interact with the water cycle can help us refine models of drought, climate change, and so much more. Joining us to talk about this is Dr. John Van Stan who you may remember from Episode 457 of the In Defense of Plants Podcast. He and his colleagues are working on refining the concept of the "Epiphyte Area Index" that will help us better understand a model vital ecosystem processes such as hydrology.

Pastor Tony Bourque's message from the weekly Water's Edge Online Experience.

Clare people are being urged to be aware of their surroundings and heed all safety advice when heading to waterways this weekend. Crowds are expected to flock to coastal locations over the coming days for the August Bank Holiday. Water goers are being reminded to swim at lifeguarded locations and within their depth, constantly supervise children, not to consume alcohol and to be aware of rip currents. Clare-based Water Safety Ireland Chairperson Claire McGrath says you're at your safest when your self aware.

God sees you and is mighty to save you.

The whole of Wales and half of England are now officially in drought. For farmers the impacts are huge. There are concerns about a shortage of feed for livestock and cereal yields are down. The Environment Agency in England says it will step up controls on how much water can be taken from rivers and groundwater. The National Farmers Union has called for a more modern abstraction system, saying we're still using regulations which are 50 years old. The environmental charity River Action says too many businesses are taking water from rivers, and the government should review the abstraction licence system. It says that trillions of litres of water are being taken from rivers, lakes and aquifers every year.There's been a rise in cases of bluetongue this summer. The disease is spread by midges and can have a devastating impact on cattle and sheep. We hear from a farmer who lost a third of his calves due to the virus, and a scientist who says the hot weather is accelerating the spread.All week BBC local radio stations in England have been focusing on agriculture, as part of this year's Farmwatch reporters have looked at food inflation and what rising costs mean for producers. We also hear from an inspiring young farmer in Cornwall, who has got his own dairy herd - comprising one Jersey cow.Presenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Simon Constable and Jim McTague continue with a quiz highlighting that typical data centers use 300,000 gallons of water daily, while larger ones can reach 5 million gallons. Currently, most centers are urban, but 67% of planned facilities are rural. In Lancaster County, a "tale of two data centers" emerges as one town embraces the revenue stream while another resists it due to misinformation and fear. (2)

The Devil Within The Monsters We Still Create Episode Three: The Things That Really Live Beneath the Water The Frogman of High Falls has led us on an unexpected journey. We began with a modern cryptid hiding in the mist beneath Rochester's famous waterfall. We explored the city's remarkable rise as an industrial powerhouse, examined how abandoned places inspire folklore, and discovered how the human mind—and now the internet—can transform uncertainty into legend. Now we arrive at the conclusion. In the final chapter of The Monsters We Still Create, Branden Morgan leaves mythology behind and follows the evidence back to the Genesee River itself. From the environmental awakening that reshaped America after rivers like the Cuyahoga caught fire, to the remarkable recovery of western New York's waterways, we explore the quiet reality that ecosystems remember everything we do to them. The true story isn't one of radioactive monsters or government experiments. It's the far more profound story of how nature absorbs our choices, adapts to them, and, when given the chance, begins to heal. But perhaps the Frogman was never really about amphibians at all. Perhaps he exists because every civilization creates monsters that reflect its deepest fears. Medieval Europe imagined demons lurking beyond the village. Frontier America feared endless�wilderness. Industrial America, having transformed rivers, forests, and landscapes beyond recognition, began imagining something waiting beneath the water—a creature born not from ancient curses, but from the uneasy relationship between progress and consequence. The Frogman may never have walked the banks of the Genesee River. But the questions he asks us are very real. Join us as we conclude this three-part series and discover why the greatest monsters have never been the ones hiding in the darkness—they're the ones that inspire us to finally look beneath the surface.

A brutal breakup. A six-pack on the cover of magazines. An engagement that ended. And the moment everything fell apart, the question that broke it all open: What have I actually been running from? Everything Brian built, every race, every trophy, every pound lifted, was fueled by self-hatred. The moment he stopped long enough to ask why, everything changed. Brian Keane is a 3x bestselling author, ultra-endurance athlete, and mindset coach who has helped 150+ entrepreneurs create sustainable change from the inside out. In this conversation, he and George go deep on identity, self-worth, the four quadrants of a fulfilling life, and what it actually takes to stop optimizing the wrong thing. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Why keeping weight off is harder than losing it and the real reason why The four quadrant framework: health, wealth, love, and fulfillment How scarcity scales with success and how to rewire your relationship with money The "chains of habits" and the oak tree analogy for behavior change Why most entrepreneurs are more comfortable in their old story than writing a new one The director's cut thought experiment for discharging trauma and limiting beliefs The horse experiment: how to identify when you're the common denominator Why your mess becomes your message and why vulnerability is the real competitive edge Key Takeaways: ✔️You can't give from an empty cup. Entrepreneurs are the last to prioritize themselves, and the first to pay the price for it. ✔️Fueling from gratitude instead of fear is not a mindset hack. It's the difference between a decade of anxiety and a decade of sustainable output. ✔️The chains of habits are too loose to be felt until they're too strong to be broken. A habit is a seed. Leave it alone long enough and it becomes an oak tree. ✔️The horse experiment: if three people call you a horse, get a saddle. The common denominator in every repeated pattern is you. ✔️The director's cut: create an alternative version of your charged story. Not to live in fantasy, but to discharge the energy so you can look at it clearly. ✔️Frequency attracts tribe. When you go deeper on your own work, what you attract changes — in relationships, in business, and in life. ✔️Water rises to the level it's comfortable at. Your environment, community, and inner work determine your ceiling. ✔️Your mess is your message. Being witnessed in vulnerability neutralizes the charge and unlocks your next chapter.

On this week's Neutralizing Workplace Racism, we confront a grim, multi-front landscape of structural collapse, racial terror, extreme environmental hazards, and devastating physical violence erupting directly on the clock. This week's news reports validate our continuous thesis: as the global economy tightens and structural heat intensifies, the workplace has transformed into a highly volatile arena where corporate negligence combines with unaddressed hostility to produce bloodshed. We break down the 9 critical audio tracks that expose the illusion of workplace safety and trace a deeply disturbing, multi-week pattern of Black employees executing severe physical violence against other Black workers: 1. The Class of 2026 Real-Time Audit: We listen to the raw audio reports tracking the youngest crop of post-grad workers as they enter a brutal, highly corporate job market. We evaluate how early-career conditioning forces non-white youth to compromise safety for structural survival. 2. The Bengaluru Techie LinkedIn Disclosure: We deconstruct the viral report exposing the severe, systemic slowdown in the US technology and labor sectors. We analyze the transactional mechanics of a contracting market where shrinking entry-level spaces heighten worker friction. 3. The Emergency Labor Heat Toll: We examine the escalating physical toll that historic summer heat waves are extracting from outdoor laborers and emergency first responders. We dismantle the corporate public relations campaigns that treat human bodies as expendable machinery to maintain profit lines. 4. The Golden Fire Department Racial Terror Display: We dissect the administrative fallout and subsequent termination inside a Colorado municipal station after a Black doll was discovered hanging by its neck from a rope. We analyze this explicit act of racial harassment as an unvarnished reminder of the psychological warfare operating behind closed institutional doors. 5. The Bite of Seattle Festival Mass Shooting: We analyze the chaotic vendor livestream audio capturing the immediate aftermath of a mass shooting that shattered a major local food festival. We dissect how independent food vendors—operating on thin margins—are forced to cope with the profound economic devastation and physical trauma of unaddressed community violence spilling directly into their commercial workspaces. 6. The Memphis Taco Bell Boiling Scalding Attack: We scrutinize the horrific felony arrest details out of Tennessee where a 19-year-old Black employee, Makayla Henderson, retrieved a commercial pot of boiling water and poured it into the lap of her 18-year-old Black co-worker, Chris Jones, inflicting severe second-degree burns. We confront this tragedy head-on as a sad, devastating example of our multi-week focus: Black employees weaponizing extreme physical violence against other Black employees over localized workspace friction and horseplay. 7. The Mason Carter Lumber Execution Audit: We look at the chilling arraignment records out of Ohio where a recent white employee, David Cohen, tracked down his white co-worker, Vincent "Vinny" Stoetzel, and shot him 22 times inside a lumber warehouse. This targeted execution stands as stark proof that quitting a hostile environment does not guarantee safety when underlying workspace pathology is left to fester. Between targeted workplace executions, boiling kitchen scaldings, festival mass shootings, and racial terror displays inside municipal uniform services, survival remains your only valid metric of operational success. Your absolute priority on the clock is no longer climbing a rigged corporate ladder or seeking administrative validation—it is implementing a strict "Workplace Matters Only" code, keeping your personal business entirely off the floor, and reducing your daily physical footprint to survive your shift alive, intact, and in one piece. #SurviveYourShift #WorkplaceViolence #TheCOWS17Years #CounterRacism #DecupleShieldActive #UntilJustice INVEST in The COWS: PayPal: http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

"Our gross profit margin is truly the battle we have to win in order to win all of the downstream wars." - Tracy Bech  Financial statements become useful when leaders can translate the numbers into decisions. Tracy Bech, founder and author of 60 Minute CFO, explains how business owners, managers, salespeople, and field professionals can develop financial fluency without becoming accountants.  Turn Financial Data into a Meaningful Scorecard  Tracy teaches finance through stories and relationships rather than isolated numbers. Revenue alone does not reveal whether a company is financially healthy. Leaders need ratios that show how efficiently the company earns money, whether it can meet its obligations, and how prepared it is to withstand adversity.  Her three foundational measures are gross profit margin, liquidity, and safety. Gross profit margin shows what remains after the cost of producing a product or delivering a service. If that margin is too low, the company may not have enough money to cover operating expenses and generate a net profit.  Liquidity compares current assets with current liabilities, revealing the company's ability to pay its bills. Safety compares debt with equity and helps leaders understand the company's financial resilience and capacity to obtain financing when needed.  Move From Historical Reports to Forward Planning  Tax preparation and year-end reports explain what already happened. However, financial fluency allows leaders to use that history to forecast what should happen next.  Tracy outlines three stages: learn the key ratios, understand the difference between cash and profit, and use historical results to develop forecasts. Instead of simply accepting the final score, leaders can establish financial targets and create specific marching orders for pricing, sales, expenses, hiring, and growth.  Give Teams Metrics They Can Influence  Financial planning should not remain confined to the executive team. Salespeople and technicians can provide valuable information about customer responses, operational friction, pricing, quality, rework, referrals, and service delivery.  However, Tracy cautions leaders against sharing financial information that employees cannot control. Teams benefit most from clear measures connected to their work, such as proposals won, project margins, pricing discipline, accurate service, reduced callbacks, customer reviews, and referrals.  Financial visibility also strengthens succession planning. Owners preparing to exit can improve their position by optimizing financial ratios, protecting the balance sheet, exploring future growth opportunities, and developing the next generation of leadership.  Understanding the story behind the numbers helps water treatment professionals evaluate risk, communicate priorities, and make decisions that support long-term stability.  Listen to the full conversation above.

After months of waiting for a decision, the federal government has finally released their plans for how western states can share water from the Colorado River. From an initial look at the new Environmental Impact Study (EIS), it appears states in the lower basin -- California, Arizona, and Nevada -- will need to cut their water usage by at least 20%. Greg and Jim share thoughts on this plan, then get overall updates on the ongoing drought across the state from Laura Haskell, drought coordinator at the Utah Division of Water Resources.

We're diving into haunted waters this week with listener stories exploring eerie lakes, ghostly maritime encounters, and the strange pull of places where water and the supernatural seem to meet. Grab your life jacket, trust your instincts, and maybe think twice before wandering too close to the water after dark. Stories include: Near a remote lake in Bosnia, a family hears an unearthly scream in the night, only to discover a trail of blood possibly connected to the legendary Drekavac. An immersive Titanic exhibit takes a chilling turn when a mysterious man in period clothing vanishes and icy whispers seem to follow from beyond the grave. A four day lakeside haunting escalates into a possession that delivers a life saving warning years before disaster strikes. Aboard the Belle of Louisville steamship, one deceased crew member is still fighting for his life. Watch the Belle of Louisville's calliope play ‘Golden' here. Watch the video version here.

Every season farmers face the same expensive questions: Should I spray fungicide? Does this field really need more nitrogen? Which fields deserve my attention first? How do I know the recommendation is actually right? At Tech Hub LIVE, Farm4Profit sits down with Kristine White, CEO of Spornado, and Jackson Stansell, CEO of Sentinel Ag, to explore two innovative technologies designed to answer those questions with data. Kristine explains how Spornado captures airborne fungal spores before disease symptoms ever appear, allowing growers to make preventative fungicide decisions weeks earlier than traditional scouting. The conversation also dives into fungicide resistance testing, predictive disease modeling, and the future of automated disease alerts. Jackson discusses Sentinel Ag's satellite-powered nitrogen management platform, which combines imagery, weather, soil characteristics, and proprietary calibration plots to help growers determine where—and whether—additional nitrogen is actually needed. The discussion expands into water management, nutrient efficiency, manure applications, and how AI could reshape agronomic decision-making. The conversation also explores: Disease forecasting Satellite imagery AI in agriculture Crop scouting Fungicide timing Nitrogen management Water quality Retail agronomy ROI on new technology Data-driven farming Startup innovation The future of precision agriculture If your goal is making smarter decisions before writing another input check, this episode is packed with ideas worth considering.

In this episode of the NVus Alien Podcast, Heather Woodward begins a three-part investigation into the mysterious deaths and disappearances of eleven scientists whose work spanned aerospace engineering, plasma physics, astronomy, chemistry, and biomedical research. After spending more than three months researching publicly available information, Heather examines a series of cases that have fueled speculation across the internet while separating documented facts from unanswered questions. Rather than presenting conclusions, this series explores recurring themes, timelines, and scientific fields that appear throughout these cases. Part One focuses on five individuals whose work intersected with organizations including NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Caltech, MIT, and Novartis.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/nvus-alien--4798594/support.

A methods-focused episode about how muscle and body-composition measurements can mislead you when reading the research. The main event is a new Balshaw and colleagues paper concluding that ultrasound muscle thickness is a poor index of MRI-measured muscle growth. Trexler and Helms argue this shouldn't be read as "throw out all ultrasound research" — the real culprit is that muscle thickness is a crude one-dimensional snapshot with measurement error large enough to swamp the small changes seen in typical short studies, whereas MRI captures growth in more dimensions with better fidelity. They walk through why comparing across different dimensions and different devices matters, what researchers can do about it (bigger doses, larger samples, multiple measurements), and use the famous "sleep restriction kills your gains by 60%" study as an example of over-reading a tiny difference in ten people. The second half turns to DEXA. Prompted by someone confused that DEXA fat mass didn't line up with the 3,500-calorie rule, they explain DEXA's three-compartment model, why it measures fat mass rather than adipose tissue, and why lean soft tissue readings are so sensitive to hydration. The practical upshot: don't build your worldview on a kilogram of day-to-day DEXA noise, be cautious using DEXA to estimate energy status, and understand that flattening a three-dimensional body into a two-dimensional scan introduces real limits. They close with an extended, tongue-in-cheek bit about trademarking "muscle journey" dimensions. Iron Culture is proudly presented by the MASS Research Review.
