As sea level rises, coastal groundwater rises too — increasing the risk of damage to underground infrastructure such as buried pipes and wires, as well as flooding basements and rutting roadways. “Groundwater inundation has the potential to cause overwhelming amounts of damage and to exacerbate social inequalities,” Dr. Habel writes in Knowable Magazine. “We need to proactively tackle the current and impending flood of problems.” Learn more: ”The hidden threat from rising coastal groundwater“ (Knowable Magazine) https://arevie.ws/Habel_KM “Hidden Threat: The Influence of Sea-Level Rise on Coastal Groundwater and the Convergence of Impacts on Municipal Infrastructure” (Annual Review of Marine Science) #OpenAccess https://lnkd.in/gtW7mZ-c

For the better part of a century now, astronomers and physicists have known that a process called thermonuclear fusion has kept the Sun and the stars shining for millions or even billions of years. And ever since that discovery, they’ve dreamed of bringing that energy source down to Earth and using it to power the modern world. Learn more: “Pursuing fusion power” ✍️ M.

Language, it is often said, is a window into the human mind. David Harrison experienced this firsthand as a young linguist in the 1990s when he traveled to the Russian republic of Tuva to spend a year with a group of herding nomads. Working with Indigenous communities to understand the environmental knowledge embedded in their languages is the goal of “environmental linguistics,” a line of research Harrison describes in a 2023 article in the Annual Review of Linguistics. This task is urgent, as many of the world’s thousands of Indigenous languages are threatened themselves, at risk of being replaced by more commonly spoken languages.
