Hmm, indication that stuff is not well in Sulphur, OK (hit by a tornado over the weekend) -- curfew put in place two days after the tornado. #Sulphur#OKwx
The #Sulphur, #Oklahoma tornado has been given a preliminary rating of at least an EF-3. Investigations still ongoing to see if rating needs to be increased or not.
Hello chemists! Do any of you have experience of growing #crystals of sulfur? I'm helping an artist to grow some - does anyone have a suggestions for strategies for getting blocks? #chemistry#sulphur#Sulfur#nfernuveru
Air pollution from shipping is down: Yay! But the air pollution turns out to be a Faustian bargain:
"#Sulphur particles contained in ships’ exhaust fumes have been counteracting some of the warming coming from greenhouse gases. But lowering the sulphur content of marine fuel has weakened the masking effect, effectively giving a boost to warming."
"It was 👉the most powerful volcanic eruption on earth since #Krakatoa in 1883. 👈"
"👉Typically, volcanic eruptions cool the surface of the earth👈 in the same way as extra #sulphur#emissions from #ships – it shades the surface of the earth. "
"👉Water is a #GreenhouseGas like carbon dioxide👉, so more of that in the #stratosphere warms the surface of the planet.
Today’s hike was a cavalcade of photo errors or missed opportunities. There was a good variety of #butterflies and my first real chance to get shots of Blues. They refused to hold still though, and these two are my best clips of a video. Blues can be hard to ID. I think this is an Edward’s Blue male.
