Loggerhead sea turtles 🐢 don’t just migrate willy-nilly. As it turns out, they follow a narrow band of ideal chlorophyll and heat levels—which stretches across the Pacific and moves north and south with the seasons! In honor of #WorldSeaTurtleDay, see how data collected from tagged turtles and NOAA’s #satellites...

Even though they were released randomly, with no guidance or direction, these little sea turtles still knew exactly which way led to the ocean — a powerful survival instinct forged over millions of years of evolution 🐢 💞 Nature truly is miraculous and incorruptible (pure and unspoiled) like that! ✨

Iranian opposition channels report increasing environmental and ecological damage as a result of oil leaks from Kharg Island, from which Iran exports more than 90 percent of its oil. According to these sources, oil slicks originating from the island are spreading in the sea and even reaching the shores of Kuwait, killing along the way sea snails, fish, crabs, sea turtles, birds, and other marine animals.

This where the paved road ends in Texas- South Padre Island. Beyond it, the developed tourist area gives way to wild dunes, open beach, and the undeveloped northern stretches leading into Padre Island National Seashore. This spot where there are miles and miles of vast open Gulf shoreline and sand dunes, sea turtles and shorebirds. It's less crowded than the southern resort areas and offers a sense of solitude. Not many know of the beauty that South Padre Island offers. It’s like a calming dream with this vast emptiness that stretches for miles on this part of the island. Have you ever been to South Padre Island? Did you know Texas had this beautiful treasure?

This animation shows sea surface temperature differences compared to average conditions between January and mid-July 2026 using data from satellites, including NOAA’s geostationary and polar-orbiting satellites. Areas where temperatures are unusually high for an extended period of time indicate marine heatwave conditions. Understanding the duration, intensity, and spatial coverage of marine heatwaves is essential as they can significantly impact marine life that coastal communities and economies rely on.

Most people don’t realize just how often—and how drastically—Earth’s climate has changed on its own. Sea levels rose 400 feet. North America once had a climate like today’s South Pole. All of it before industrial CO₂. And CO₂? Its heat-trapping effect tapers off, like a leaky sponge—not endlessly rising.

That’s actually one of the main things explored in 2012!! The turtles start off very incompetent and unable to work as a team, even against the kraang. But as the seasons progress they become so accustomed to working together that it almost becomes like a synchronized flow.

.NOAA’s #satellites are monitoring significant #wildfires that broke out across the western U.S. last month and continue to burn. One of the wildfires—known as the #CottonwoodFire—has burned over 93,000 acres, making it among the most destructive wildfires in Utah’s history, and the largest one burning in the U.S. today.

Did you know that every turtle on Earth has 13 moons, and 28 days reflected on its shell? 🐢🌙 A perfect 364-day year plus one day of rest. Ancients across the world followed this nature-synchronized calendar, until the Gregorian reform severed humans' link to the moon and stars, which are themselves a giant clock. Turtles hold an incredibly deep connection with the natural cycles of our world. Humans should follow suit.

This weekend, a band of rain and wind will affect Scotland and Northern Ireland and possibly the far north of England by Sunday. Further south, expect some very warm or hot weather with sunny spells and lighter winds. Find out more in the Weekend Weather with Clare Nasir.

The absence of Apex Legends-style recoil smoothing isn't a bug, and previous Battlefield games didn’t have it either. I went as far as datamining and converting the VCR-2's recoil stats from polar to Cartesian values, then reimplemented them in a modified version of BF4 just to see how they would interact with mouse movement. It turns out the behavior is exactly the same.

𝑻𝒊𝒏𝒚 𝒇𝒍𝒊𝒑𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒔, 𝒃𝒊𝒈 𝒘𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒔 🐢🌊 We successfully released the 111 sea turtles we adopted under AshDres’ name with each one carrying a little piece of love back into the ocean. We also shared the moment beyond the shore—giving out our freebies to kids and the public as small keepsakes from a day filled with purpose and heart. Huge thank you to CURMA for guiding us and helping make this project possible 🙏🧡 #AshDres #AfterHoursShellebrateAshDres #AfterHoursRootsforAshDres #ProjectHNB_updatesh

The mysterious "Band of Holes", also known as Monte Sierpe or Viruela, is a site near Pisco in Peru, that consists of more than 5,000 pits and which stretches over 1.5 km of rugged terrain, which gives it the appearance of a snake. Its origin and function remain unknown to this day.

There is something about the very first TMNT movie from 1990 that still gets me excited to this day. The way the turtles looked, the film colour grading and of course the amazing music by composer John Du Prez. The start of the movie is still one of my favourite scenes of all time and a lot of that is because of the soundtrack. I can still remember my mom taking me to see it, she worked at a large retail clothing company in Cape Town and her work got her early sneak preview tickets. I didn’t believe her when she told me it was a proper ‘real life’ ninja turtles film. It was only once I started watching it that I realised it was an actual movie and I will never forget the excitement when I first saw Raphael’s eyes looking out from the sewer. What a magical memory it was, I would love to know your first turtles movie experience 🐢 Anyway, I recreated the intro music with some modern synthwave flavour ✨ #tmnt #ninjaturtles #nostalgia
