Earth's interior is swallowing up more carbon than thought

By Lurker,

Scientists from Cambridge University and NTU Singapore have found that slow-motion collisions of tectonic plates drag more carbon into Earth's interior than previously thought.
They found that the carbon drawn into Earth's interior at subduction zones—where tectonic plates collide and dive into Earth's interior—tends to stay locked away at depth, rather than resurfacing in the form of volcanic emissions.
Their findings, published in Nature Communications, suggest that only about a thir
Honeywell debuts MEMS sensor to help small sats navigate

By Lurker,

Honeywell has unveiled a new rate sensor to help small satellites navigate increasingly crowded orbits above the Earth’s surface. The new micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS)-based product provides low cost and power consumption in a smaller size than previous Honeywell offerings, while maintaining high performance levels. It is suitable for customers building smaller and lower-cost satellites, according to Honeywell.
Honeywell’s HG4934 space rate sensor is roughly the same size and weigh

UN confirms 18.3C record on temperature in Antarctica

By Lurker,

The United Nations on Thursday recognised a new record high temperature for the Antarctic continent, confirming a reading of 18.3 degrees Celsius (64.9 degrees Fahrenheit) made last year.
The record heat was reached at Argentina's Esperanza research station on the Antarctic Peninsula on February 6, 2020, the UN's World Meteorological Organization said.
"Verification of this maximum temperature record is important because it helps us to build up a picture of the weather and climate in o
2020 Global Land Use Data

By Lurker,

A global land cover GeoTIFF was recently released by Impact Observatory (IO) and Esri. To create this geospatial layer, hundreds of thousands of satellite photos were classified into ten unique land use/land cover (LULC) classes using a deep learning model in partnership with Microsoft AI for Earth.
Sentinel-2 imagery was used to divide the world into ten categories of land use cover:
Water (areas that are predominately water such as rivers ponds, lakes, and ocean)
Trees (clusters
