Perpetual Ocean by NASA

NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center Scientific Visualization Studio — the same team that recently brought us an animation of the moon as it will appear from Earth for each hour of 2012 — has also released a stunning video called “Perpetual Ocean,” a time lapse of the world’s ocean currents as calculated by the ECCO2 computational model.

Noise disrupts growth of plants

By disrupting the behaviour of animals that disperse plant seeds man-made noise could be transforming our landscape, scientists say...

 

It alters birdsong and can make it difficult for some predators to hunt, and now it seems that man-made noise also affects plants.

 

A US team found that industrial noise disrupted the behaviour of animals that pollinate plants and disperse seeds.

 

This, they suggest, could be slowly transforming our landscape, especially by changing the dispersal of slow-growing trees.
