Happy to share a quiet evening with loved ones continuing our tradition of cooking a multi course meal centered around one ingredient. This year? Pears. (bonus: watching back to back LOTR so that at midnight Frodo sends us off with "It's Done".)

The illustrations from top to bottom show ocean soundscapes from before the industrial revolution that were largely composed of sounds from geological (geophony) and biological sources (biophony), with minor contributions from human sources (anthrophony), to the present Anthropocene oceans, where anthropogenic noise and reduced biophony owing to the depleted abundance of marine animals and healthy habitats have led to impacts on marine animals. These impacts range from behavioral and physiological to, in extreme cases, death. As human activities in the ocean continue to increase, management options need be deployed to prevent these impacts from growing under a β€œbusiness-as-usual” scenario and instead lead to well-managed soundscapes in a future, healthy ocean.

A 2021 #ScienceReview showed how the rapidly changing soundscape of modern oceans impacts marine life globallyβ€”and how mitigating these impacts is key to achieving a healthier ocean.

Is there potential for a Horizons article about possible in-world sorts/leagues?
