Yesterday's mystery #cloud has been ID'd as #cirrocumulus (or perhaps altocumulus) but in any case of the rather rare #undulatus variety, with the waves caused by wind shear at different altitudes: https://cloudappreciationsociety.org/october-2023/ comes somewhat close; see https://cloudappreciationsociety.org/cloud-library/undulatus/ and https://cloudappreciationsociety.org/cloud-library/cirrocumulus/ for details. h/t https://scicomm.xyz/@drlucyrogers@mastodon.social

BILD hat 2023 gelogen und die restliche Medienlandschaft hat brav alles unkritisch nachgeplappert. Das stützt eine Studie in einem Fachjournal: Eine neue Studie in Energy Research & Social Science von Forschern des Öko-Instituts und der Universität Oxford hat 333 BILD-Artikel ausgewertet – und zeichnet präzise nach, wie das rechte Boulevardblatt mit einem einzigen erfundenen Wort eines der wichtigsten Klimagesetze Deutschlands zerlegt hat.

fly_larva: Drosophila larva brain (2023)
A complete synaptic map of the brain connectome of the larva of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Nodes are neurons, and edges are synaptic connections, traced individually from brain image sections using three-dimensional electron microscopy–based reconstruction. Node metadata include the neuron hempisphere, hemispherical homologue, cell type, annotations, and inferred cluster. Edge metadata include the type of interaction (`'aa'`,…
