"A team of researchers at Washington University in St. Louis has developed a real-time air monitor that can detect any of the SARS-CoV-2 virus variants that are present in a room in about 5 minutes.

The proof-of-concept device was created by researchers from the McKelvey School of Engineering and the School of Medicine at Washington University...

The results are contained in a July 10 publication in Nature Communications that provides details about how the technology works.

The device holds promise as a breakthrough that - when commercially available - could be used in hospitals and health care facilities, schools, congregate living quarters, and other public places to help detect not only the SARS-CoV-2 virus, but other respiratory virus aerosol such as influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) as well.

“There is nothing at the moment that tells us how safe a room is,” Cirrito said, in the university’s news release. “If you are in a room with 100 people, you don’t want to find out five days later whether you could be sick or not. The idea with this device is that you can know essentially in real time, or every 5 minutes, if there is a live virus in the air.”

How It Works

The team combined expertise in biosensing with knowhow in designing instruments that measure the toxicity of air. The resulting device is an air sampler that operates based on what’s called “wet cyclone technology.” Air is sucked into the sampler at very high speeds and is then mixed centrifugally with a fluid containing a nanobody that recognizes the spike protein from the SARS-CoV-2 virus. That fluid, which lines the walls of the sampler, creates a surface vortex that traps the virus aerosols. The wet cyclone sampler has a pump that collects the fluid and sends it to the biosensor for detection of the virus using electrochemistry.

The success of the instrument is linked to the extremely high velocity it generates - the monitor has a flow rate of about 1,000 liters per minute - allowing it to sample a much larger volume of air over a 5-minute collection period than what is possible with currently available commercial samplers. It’s also compact - about one foot wide and 10 inches tall - and lights up when a virus is detected, alerting users to increase airflow or circulation in the room.

Testing the Monitor

To test the monitor, the team placed it in the apartments of two Covid-positive patients. The real-time air samples from the bedrooms were then compared with air samples collected from a virus-free control room. The device detected the RNA of the virus in the air samples from the bedrooms but did not detect any in the control air samples.

In laboratory experiments that aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 into a room-sized chamber, the wet cyclone and biosensor were able to detect varying levels of airborne virus concentrations after only a few minutes of sampling, according to the study.

“We are starting with SARS-CoV-2, but there are plans to also measure influenza, RSV, rhinovirus and other top pathogens that routinely infect people,” Cirrito said. “In a hospital setting, the monitor could be used to measure for staph or strep, which cause all kinds of complications for patients. This could really have a major impact on people’s health.”

The Washington University team is now working to commercialize the air quality monitor."

Holy shit. I know it's still early in the technology and more testing will inevitably be needed but holy shit.

Literally, if it bears out, this could revolutionize medicine. And maybe let immunocompromised people fucking go places again

Also, for those who don't know, Nature Communications is a very prestigious scientific journal that focuses on Pretty Big Deal research. Their review process is incredibly rigorous. This is an absolutely HUGE credibility boost to this research and prototype

“Since 1971, the ocean is estimated to have absorbed heat equivalent to the energy of more than 25bn Hiroshima-scale atomic bombs. No, I can’t get my head around that either. But payback – in the form of ice melt, sea level rise, more intense cyclones, increased flooding risk and damage to marine life – was always coming. A recent study found a deep ocean current, known as the Southern Ocean overturning circulation, has already slowed by about a third since the 1990s – far more rapidly than forecast in climate models. It means there is less cold, deep ocean water pushing north. The ramifications for regional and global temperatures and weather patterns will take time to unfold, but are expected to be substantial and cascading.”

[mapsontheweb]

Cyclones, also known as hurricanes or typhoons, are large low-pressure systems that suck air in forcefully, resulting in circulating winds of 119 to over 249 kilometers (74 to over 155 miles) an hour.

They usually form over warm ocean water in the tropics and subtropics. Lightning flashes are more likely to occur over land than water, and most often in the tropics, where more heat provides more energy to produce thunderstorms. The hotspot in Venezuela occurs where warm, moist air from the Caribbean Sea encounters cold air from the Andes mountains.

PRETTY LITTLE PSYCHO

yeah. Im that person now

❗TW: Mentions of murder, tourture, Swearing, Most likely insane reader

Pairing: Mischa Bachinski x !Yandre!Reader

Fandom: RIDE THE CYCLONE

Summary: mischa has been seieng this girl for a while, She loves him. Would do anything for him. Anything in the world for him. But maybe her promise gets taken too far....

"id would do anything for you" She would always say to mischa. He thought nothing of it. He only started to worry when the people that seemed to have a intrest in him go missing. He just thought they got sick. But most of them never came back again. He was talking to this girl that had a huge crush on him. His girlfriend spying on them from down the hall. Monetering her. The way she laughed, Touched him, smiled at him. Just enough for her to go crazy. Ahe would walk up to them with a smile on her face. She would kiss mischas cheek. Leaveing a lipstick mark. If that girl didnt stop she would take matters into her own hands, or her own blade. "Hey, you seem really cool, wanna meet up after school" She says to the girl.

"Yeah! Id love too" the girl says, "Great, meet me near football feild" She smiles and walks away. At the end of the day she meets up with the girl. "Whats your name?" She asks, "Margo" Margo says. "Thats so pretty, your face is really pretty" She smiles. Margo smiles back. "thank you",

"it will look real pretty on my wall" She smiles. "wait what-" Margo says then (name) grabs her and puts a towel with chloroform on it over her mouth makeing margo pass out. (Name) Drags margo to her car and lays her down (thows her) in the back seats. She would drive to a abondoned house. (name) drags margo into the bacement and ties her to a chair and waits for margo to wake up.

Margo wakes up, "morning sunshine" She say to her with a mask on her face. "W-Where am i!?" Margo says panicked. "What were your intentions with mischa." She says ro amrgo in a cold tone. "I wanted to date him! Hes so hot and attractive and-" Margo gets cut off my a knife in her gut. "Mine. The boy is mine. Not yours, he only will love me not your ragity ass. Margo." (Name) said to margo as she was sitting in shock then died. She smirks and cleans herself off. She takes off the mask to reval a smile on her face showing she is satisfied with what she has done.

She leaves the building and drives home, Once she gets home she takes a shower. Must have no evidinve on her. None. The next day people are womdering where their little margo went. "I wonder where she went.." Mischa says to his girlfriend, "Yeah, After choir you wanna come over to take your mind off things?" she asks and he nods. After choir practice they walk to her car. little did she remeber Margos white shoe, with her drawing on it, name and that she had been wearing last time anyone saw her was in the passangers seat leg space.

They get into the car and mischa sees it. "What-Is that margos sho-" He starts saying in a shakey tone. (Name) Starts freaking out and knocks him out. She drives to the buiding and dragged him inside, she untied margos dead body and threw it with the other ones. She ties mischa up and puts her mask on and sits infront of him holding her trusty knife waiting. Waiting for him to wake up. Once he wakes up he realises he isnt at her house. Insted a bloody, cold bacement with wepons on the walls and dead bodies of girls and guys that have ever liked him on the floor. "What the fuck is this." He says trieing to get out of the chair hes tied too.

"Dont bother doing that. You I would do anything for you. Looks like you didnt quite belive that fully" she said circuling around the chair. "W-What have you done! You cant just kill the people that find an intrest in me!" He yells. Accent thinkening. "Oh but yes i can. I only do it because i love you, and i dont want anyone! To take that away from me!" She says, at anyone she slits his arm with her blade. He groans, "I love you too much for that to happen" She smiles and kneels down next the the chair and puts a hand on his thigh. "So, you have two options love, either tell people what you saw and i would unfortunately have to kill both of us, Or! Stay with me and tell no one what you saw, and we will live" She says in a happy tone near the end,

"I-I need to tell someone!" He says. She didnt quite like that and slit his cheek. "No you dont." She smiles almost insanely with a slight giggle. "Tell no one." She said and he nodded profusely, "Good. Now let me patch you up! I let my anger get the best of me!" she said takeing her mask off and grabing wipes and baindaids. She patches him up and unties him. "If you tell anyone i swear to god i will stab you untill my knife goes all the way through you body." she says coldly and then holds his hand, "Okay lets go!" she smiles and they leave and go to her house. Guess this is his life now. Stuck with her or she will. Kill. Him.

i hope yall liked this! Toodles!

There's also some interesting debate in the tropical weather forums over whether Invest 90L (currently in the northwest Gulf of Mexico) should be classified as a tropical cyclone. The NHC seems to have opted against it, lowering its chances of development from 20% to 0% at 2pm today, but it has a closed circulation, gale-force winds, and a well-defined surface low of 1008hPa. At least one professional meteorologist has said that he believes that the NHC under its previous leadership would have designated this a tropical cyclone, and that this may indicate a change in philosophy when it comes to their approach to naming storms.

Cloud atlas of mars showcases array of atmospheric phenomena

Cloud enthusiasts have a new tool to investigate striking formations in the skies above the Red Planet. A browsable database of 20-years-worth of images of clouds and storms, created by the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) in Berlin, is helping scientists better understand how and where features arise in the martian atmosphere and what they can tell us about the climate of Mars and other planets. The Mars ‘Cloud Atlas’, which is available to the public at https://hrscteam.dlr.de/public/data.php, has been presented this week at the Europlanet Science Congress (EPSC) 2024 in Berlin by Daniela Tirsch of DLR.

The images in the Cloud Atlas have been captured by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) instrument, which has been in orbit on board the European Space Agency (ESA) Mars Express spacecraft since 2005. Although Mars has a very thin atmosphere, numerous cloud formations and dust storm phenomena can develop from water and carbon dioxide ice crystals as well as dust particles. 

“Clouds on Mars are just as diverse and fascinating as those we see in our skies on Earth, with some features unique to the Red Planet. One of my favourite phenomena are the beautiful ‘cloud streets’ – linear rows of fleecy clouds that develop around the huge volcanic Tharsis rise and the northern lowlands in northern spring and summer. While they resemble cumulus clouds on Earth, they are formed under different atmospheric conditions,” said Dr Tirsch. “We also see impressive dust clouds that can spread hundreds of kilometres – a phenomena we luckily don’t experience on Earth.”

Dust plays a major role in the atmosphere and climate of Mars. Rare upwelling events can leave beige, dust-laden blobs hanging in the atmosphere. Large differences in temperature and air pressure at certain seasons can result in stronger-than-usual winds that lift large amounts of dust from the Martian surface. Dust clouds spreading from the tops of giant volcanoes take on the appearance of eruption clouds, although they are no longer active. 

Large spiral dust storms and cyclone systems can also be observed each year near the Martian north pole. Studying these phenomena is crucial to scientists in understanding the atmosphere and air mass circulation on Mars. 

Rippling ‘gravity clouds’ are one of the most common formations on both Mars and the Earth. They are seen at mid-latitudes in winter for both hemispheres, as well as over the Tharsis volcanic plateau in southern winter. Lee waves, a special type of gravity clouds, can build up on the downwind side of ridges, mountains and other obstacles to create repeating ridge formations. 

Some types of clouds studied are specific to locations and seasons; others like ‘twilight clouds’ can appear in the early morning at any place or time of year.

The HRSC Cloud Atlas will provide valuable insights into the physical nature and appearance of clouds and storms, the time of their occurrence and their location. This knowledge will help better understand the atmospheric dynamics and the climate cycles on Mars, as well as providing input for studies of the climate on other planets such as Earth and Venus. The DLR team has already used the database to create global maps showing the occurrence of various types of cloud as a function of season and location.

“As Mars Express has been extended by ESA until at least 2026, this will enable us keep filling this database and refine even further our understand of Mars atmosphere,” said Dr Tirsch.

MELISSA AND THE ALLIES OF GAIA ART DUMP 1 - THE SUPERCELL

In episode 9 of the story "Melissa and the Allies of Gaia" I posted on Wattpad in August, Melissa and her storm avatar partner Hurricane Carla (shown in her miniature form) face off against a sapient high-precipitation supercell over a salt marsh in Alabama. A pair of fisherman have been using the tornadoes/waterspouts it creates to catch fish, having used an artifact of evil weather magic to take control of the storm.

Since actually moving to Alabama (I had no idea I would end up there at the time I wrote the story chapter) I have kind of developed a new fondness for this character. Most of the characters in the story I have done art previously for but I have never drawn this one.

While I don't specify this in the story, I imagine this supercell to use she/they pronouns (insert mammatus cloud joke here) and the tornados are like her "children" that she lets out to "play" (I mean if you scaled up a toddler to the size and strength of a tornado you'd probably get as much destruction). I plan for her to come back in a sequel, though of course Melissa will end up calling her something like "Mr. Thunders." (not that I imagine she would care all that much, of course, being a giant storm and all).

Like the hurricane avatars, she has a miniature form (shown in the top image) that she stays in when conditions aren't right for her to build up her massive supercell body. It looks like a cute little cumulus cloud with a thunderbolt crest. She doesn't speak any human language, and in the story she only briefly speaks in the wind language of storms to Carla, so she isn't very talkative. For this reason I imagine Melissa might one day try to keep her as a pet, which of course goes terribly wrong (as you can see in the first page with "Mr. Thunders" pooping huge spiky hail all over her apartment ["Mr Thunders! Not on the car!"]).

Shown in the top image is also her standing off against the miniature form of Labor Day and glaring at him with lightning. This happens in the story because Labor Day gets really hungry after the wind shear causes dry air to be entrained in his circulation and he basically loses control for a brief moment and tries to eat her waterspouts. Needless to say "Mr. Thunders" doesn't like this one bet, and attacks Labor Day. Fortunately it turns out "Mr. Thunders" also is hungry for some warm moist air too and they end up just kind of returning to Gulf Coast Headquarters and having lunch on some tropical air from the Gulf of Mexico.

The final drawing on the first image shows them snuggling with their tornado children. Ultimately I imagine she only wants what is best for them. It just so happens that sometimes what is best for a tornado isn't what is best for humans.

Some more notes on her design:

-Since she's a high precipitation supercell I imagine she has a lot of precipitation falling both from her anvil and from her base, which obscures anything like the wall cloud etc. This also conveniently means I don't have to draw all the features in the base of the supercell because I can't make heads or tails of how they are arranged lol (you can tell I have more experience with tropical cyclones)

-I basically imagined her thunderhead anvil is like her hat. It actually extends far ahead of and behind her head (it is extended by the upper level wind shear) but since she's viewed from the front it is foreshortened. From the side it would be quite long.

-Her eye color is supposed to be the deep green seen in storms with a lot of hail as the sun sets. I imagine her triangular pupil actually looks like a conical tornado up close.

-I had previously in the webcomic drawn Melissa as having a peace sign beanie or skullcap, but I realized when writing the story that that sort of hat doesn't make sense for her home of Galveston, which has a hot climate. I imagine it's more of a sunhat now. (Okay this isn't about the supercell's design but I think it's important)

2024 Hurricane Season Breaks an Unusual Record, Thanks to Hot Water

The 2024 hurricane season has already made history, setting an unprecedented record that highlights the stark contrast between Atlantic and Pacific storm activity. For the first time since satellite monitoring began in 1966, the Atlantic basin has generated more accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) than the entire Pacific Ocean through early July. This unusual phenomenon is largely attributed to the exceptionally warm water temperatures across much of the North Atlantic. Phil Klotzbach, a senior research scientist at Colorado State University, explains that these abnormally high ocean temperatures are influencing storm activity in both oceans, albeit in opposite ways. In the Atlantic, the warm waters have fueled an active start to the hurricane season. The region has already experienced several named storms, including the powerful Hurricane Beryl in early July. This early season activity has contributed to the record-breaking ACE levels, which measure the total energy of a hurricane season based on storm frequency and maximum wind speeds.

Conversely, the Pacific has seen an unusually quiet start to its tropical cyclone season. The western North Pacific experienced only one typhoon in May, and for only the second time on record since 1950, it went without a named storm from June 1 to July 15. In the eastern North Pacific, Tropical Storm Aletta's formation on July 4 marked the latest start to the season on record in that region. Scientists attribute this lack of Pacific storm activity to several factors, including the absence of a strong monsoon trough in the western North Pacific and excessive easterly wind shear in the eastern North Pacific. Interestingly, the warm Atlantic waters are contributing to these conditions by influencing global wind patterns. The dramatic spike in tropical Atlantic water temperatures from March to June 2024 has persisted, creating a La Niña-like circulation pattern. This pattern reduces westerly wind shear in the Atlantic, making conditions more favorable for storm formation. However, it increases easterly winds in the eastern North Pacific, hindering tropical storm development in that region. While it's still early in the hurricane season, forecasters predict above-normal activity for the Atlantic basin. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) forecasts 17 to 25 named storms, including 8 to 13 hurricanes, of which 4 to 7 could become major hurricanes.

As the season progresses, researchers will continue to study the influence of climate change and other factors on tropical cyclone patterns. The unusual start to the 2024 season serves as a reminder of the complex interplay between oceanic and atmospheric conditions in shaping hurricane activity across different regions.

Give me some musical reccomendations!! (There are so many I want to watch/slime tutorial but have not got around to doing :((()

OK! So, there is actually a musical for Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but i haven't listened to it, and i've heard mixed reports, so idk, BUT the musical for Frankenstein is AMAZING (idk if there's a bootleg tho).

Something Rotten is set in Elizabethan times, where Shakespeare is the antagonist, and it's VERY funny, and the songs are quite good. I will, of course, always recommend Newsies! I would start with the proshot filmed in 2017 (i don't know if it's still on disney plus in the uk, but if any of these strike your fancy lmk and i'll dm you links to definitely legal versions) because while the 1992 movie is great, i find the music to be better in the stage play.

There are, of course, the classics: Heathers (which is pretty easy to find a slime of on youtube), Dear Evan Hansen (you have to have media literacy for this one, bc evan is not meant to be a good guy), and Les Mis. I personally wouldn't start with Les Mis, bc it's sung through, and LONG.

Ride the Cyclone has a really good boot circulating, and I've watched it like seven times, it's so good.

🌧️ A Monsoon Whirlwind 🌧️

⛅️😴🛏️☁️

I woke up in a dreamy bed To find myself another shed I noticed the clouds going dreary rain To brew another storm they wanted

I was excited about the rain To make me feel showered in the mist A blissful Derecho blowing through the storm They would have never bored me the most

⛈️😧🍃⛈️

A sudden thunderstorm crackling my ears I was flinched hard that I almost gave myself a heart attack A blissful wisps become angrier and angrier That I would've been scared of the cyclones at least

A tornado was created in a very bad mood They demanded themselves to demolish its path to cope A swirling cotton thickens and intensifies So much that I had to seek shelter like a scaredy cat

A monsoon whirlwind stares at me They are going to charge at me like a bull I became more terrified and frozen I had to run away like a running sheep

I ran and ran and ran into the shelter The monsoon cyclone keeps chasing me so much I accidentally tripped fall onto the ground It was too late as the monsoon funnel sucked me in like a vacuum

⛈️🌪️⚡⛈️

I woke up in an angry shed To find myself a self-care I noticed the circulating wisps inside a funnel I was mesmerized by the inside of a beautiful monsoon photogenically But I have to ask them

Why are you angry at us? I said My mom kept pressuring me to become a demolitionist, they said She wanted me to destroy the town so we could be destructive but I don't want to She angered and kicked me out that I became evicted and rethinking my life choices

The more stories I hear from a tornado, the more relatable thoughts I gave like an emotionalist I asked Monsoon why they wanted to destroy the town in the first place They said that it's for coping mechanism and that is all I became more aware that their coping mechanism was going bleak

⚡😔🌪️⚡

I told them that it was considered unhealthy If they continued they would've became a sadder rope I gave them alternatives to make us happy So far they wanted me to fly for fun and opted for touching down the debris instead

I asked them first if I wanted to be friends They said, sure to keep me company I told them to call them Monsoon They liked the name I called them that they became a wedge-sized funnel to make them happy

The tornado is getting happy to become the wedge While I was excitedly flying like a witch in a broom They started touching down the debris and a building on a flat path Until they finally dissipate in a good light

☀️🍃🌻☁️

I woke up in a dreamy grass To find myself a thankful world I noticed the skies going blooming day Until I saw a letter to read to make me grateful

It was all a thankful message from a tornado, thanks to me.

"Thank you for helping me dealing with my past childhood, friend. -Monsoon"

🌻 Thank you... 🌻

I’m a dumbass and I keep making AUs but listen-

The Wild Kratts crew makes a supply run in this small Canadian town, and no one really recognizes them as world renown biologists or anything, just normal people like everyone else. Aviva and Koki grab what they need in town, Chris and Martin go exploring on their own like idiots. Later that day, only Chris comes back.

They think Martin’s out goofing around- no big deal.

They try to call him. It doesn’t go through.

The next couple days, they’re asking around, seeing if anyone could give them any information that may help find him.

On the radios around town, one particular story is being circulated: yet another accident has occurred at their annual fall fair, involving the beloved Cyclone.

They don’t think anything of it, until a few days later, Chris finds he’s being haunted by the apparition of a man in a white t-shirt and khakis, with a red mark around his neck.
