Do you know any adults who will literally only eat chicken tenders or a cheeseburger at restaurants, thus Thai/Vietnamese/Indian/new hip joint, etc. are not going to work?

I don't see why circles would necessarily be the most parsimonious shape of it was indeed water scarcity (then again im not sure termite colonies or home ranges are necessarily circular either)

But then what's the inhibitor? Termites and water scarcity would be on the same side of the equation, no?

Good tactic! > so it is typically safe to use when you know little about the real distribution. That was what the quants doing risk assessment at the big banks thought pre-2008, which is the other context I associate with the n-sigma not

It's clearly a signal of ongoing warming, but the assumption of a Gaussian probability distribution of annual ice extent- something we only have a few tens of years of data to estimate - seems peculiar.

Sometimes it's just an attempt to do the due diligence of citing the primary reference rather than the reference that cited the reference that cited the primary reference. I experienced this recently with a very widely cited basic fact

It isn't a given that the reefs will move north. Migratory fish, certainly. And in some regions some coral species are redistributing poleward, like tropical Pocilopora alicae into Sydney Harbour. The pelagic larvae of some species

One of a number of definitions. It is one that allows lions and tigers to be the same species.

Cyanobacteria use gas vesicles, this looks like green algea (chlorophyta) which AFAIK do not have them.

No, I wouldn't want to be morally culpable for providing even a trifiling motivation for you to become the punchline of a morbid XKCD comic.

We won't. You will sober up and realise illegally going into business with drug cartels to make their fentanyl distribution more efficient was highly misguided, speaking charitably.

We are talking about individual flowers that are at least locally newsworthy whenever they bloom, I reckon that's pretty rare even if your average mid size botanical garden with a hothouse has a few plants.

It's ~7 years give or take a few. I used to go see blooms at Foster botanical garden in Honolulu whenever they had one which was about annually, never experienced an extra fundraising drive. I don't really get why you'd choos

The CO2 scrubber, would do the trick, I was thinking about hypocapnia but that probably isn't affected by inhaled CO2 but the rate at which you purge metabolic CO2. So not sure there is a downside to pushing it too far the other direct

Depends what the volume of the room is and turnover with normal air. If your room is 98% oxygen then yes, probably. But if that concentrator is bumping the typical 21% up to 30% or so, vast majority of the difference is going to be made up
