Closeup photo of a plant, likely Hosta plantaginea, with broad heart-shaped leaves in different shades of green and yellow. The leaves glisten with rain droplets that highlight their corrugated texture.

If this result holds up, it’s potentially big: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41558-025-02481-0

In short, it implies that #LightPollution is decreasing the efficiency with which #plants remove carbon from the atmosphere. It concludes that artificial light at night increases “ #ecosystem respiration” (plants, microbes, and animals releasing carbon dioxide through their activity and growth), but there is no corresponding increase in #photosynthesis.

The result is that plants exposed to ALAN emit more #carbon than they absorb from the #atmosphere. The authors write: “Our findings show that ALAN disrupts the fundamental energetic constraints on ecosystem metabolism, warranting the inclusion of light pollution in global change and carbon–climate feedback assessments.”

Some Ohuhu alcohol marker sketches I did in 2024. I'm not a fan but I got better with choosing colors and trying not to make them muddy!

#art #plants #sketchbook #AlcoholMarkers

Assortment of colorful plant and fruit drawings drawn with Ohuhu alcohol markers. The top plants have a pink and orange background. The bottom drawings are of leaves, some cherries, and circular plants with a purple background. The date 6-29-24 is written on the bottom right.

Ein Insekt sitzt auf einer grünen Pflanze. Es hat einen langen, schlanken Körper mit dunklen Beinen und einem dunklen Kopf. Der Kopf hat Dornen und lange Antennen. Das Insekt hält ein anderes, rundliches Insekt im Maul. Das zweite Insekt ist orangefarben und scheint die Beute des ersten zu sein. Das Insekt sitzt auf einer grünen Pflanze mit gezackten Blättern.

Redwood National and State Parks yesterday.

Redwood National and State Parks (U.S. National Park Service)

Renowned for the world’s tallest trees, Redwood’s landscapes span from open prairies and oak woodlands to pristine rivers and untamed coastline. This ancient home has supported people for thousands of years. The National Park Service and California State Parks now work to safeguard and rejuvenate these lands for everyone’s enjoyment, learning, and inspiration.

Recent weather conditions in the coastal areas of Redwood National and State Parks have included rain, fog, wind, and more. Yesterday turned out to be a beautiful day to do a little beach cleanup, as the sun was out and the wind was low. This image shows a wide expanse of sandy beach with a tree-lined slope filling the horizon. Erosion resistant rocks form interesting points in this particular location (center and center left). The viewer can also see the presence of non-native plants in this setting, including several sunlit sections of pampas grass on the center right. Pacific Ocean waves appear on the left. The blue sky above holds a variety of clouds.
