Felix Andries Vening Meinesz and his Gouden Kalf; Or, how the Koninklijke Marine played a crucial role in the history of ocean gravimetry, part 3

Rénald Fortier

Ingenium – Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

Welkom, mijn leesvriend, bij het derde en laatste deel van dit artikel over het onderwaterwerk van de geofysicus Felix Andries Vening Meinesz. In other words, welcome, my reading friend, to the 3rd and final part of this article on the underwater work of the geophysicist Felix Andries Vening Meinesz. You will of course remember that, when we concluded the 2nd part of that article, Vening Meinesz was on his way to the Netherlands East Indies, aboard the Koninklijke Marine submarine Hr.Ms. K XVIII

Three images side by side: cluster of coppery beetles devouring a rose flower, colours showing gravity variations of the Earth, and four yellow and one white synthetic diamonds.

3 Things you should know about geoid models of Earth’s variable gravity, harmful invasive insect species, and synthetic diamonds

Cassandra Marion, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

For this September edition, they tell us how the geoid gravity model helps scientists cope with Earth’s irregular shape, how invasive species such as the Japanese beetle are harmful to Canadian agriculture, and just how similar the properties of synthetic diamonds are to their natural counterparts.

Ingenium – Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

Good morning / afternoon / evening, my reading friend and welcome to the second part of this article on the underwater gravimetric research conducted by the Dutch geophysicist / geodesist Felix Andries Vening Meinesz, in cooperation with the Koninklijke Marine. Shall we begin our deep dive? Wunderbar! The Carnegie Institution, an American private organisation involved in the funding and performing of scientific research, was suitably intrigued by what Vening Meinesz had accomplished between 1923

Mark this day with a white stone, my faithful reading friend, for today is indeed a great day. For the first time in the history of my humble contribution to our blog / bulletin / thingee, yours truly will deal with a topic connected to the great science of geophysics, the major branch of the Earth sciences which applies the principles and methods of physics to the study of our big blue marble, and this from its very dense and hot core to the most rarefied and hottest strata of its atmosphere. I

3 things you should know about the science behind the diversity of Canada's winter precipitation, the April 2024 solar eclipse and how to safely watch it, and how the new methods of bioponics can make hydroponic agriculture organic

Michelle Campbell Mekarski, PhD

Canada Science and Technology Museum

For the February edition, they tell us why there are so many different forms of winter precipitation in much of Canada, how solar eclipses come about and why safety comes first when observing them, and how a new form of agriculture called bioponics makes organic certification of hydroponics possible.

3 things you should know about egg refrigeration, coral reef satellite maps, and watersheds

Renée-Claude Goulet

Canada Agriculture and Food Museum

For the June edition, they explain why in Canada, eggs need to be refrigerated, how a satellite map of the world's coral reefs informs conservation, and how watersheds connect us to the oceans.

AI-Generated sound therapy for critically ill patients

Corona Guan Wang

Ingenium – Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

At the start of 2022, I joined Ingenium – Canada’s Museums of Science and Innovation as a research assistant. Ingenium curators Dr. Tom Everrett (Communications) and Dr. David Pantalony (Physical Sciences and Medicine) invited me to write about a research project that I am currently affiliated with called Autonomous Adaptive Soundscape (AAS). The AAS is an intelligent bio-algorithmic system that selects therapeutic soundscapes to relax ICU patients, via application of machine learning and
