Seismological Studies of the Giant Volcanoes of Kamchatka (Russia)

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

An international team of geophysicists from France and Russia have completed a seismological survey of the Kluchevskoy Volcanao Group. They measured the activity between 1 to 10 km below the surface, at the boundary between the Earth's crust and upper mantle. In an initial data release, the researchers found that a few weeks or months in advance of surface activity, the deep magnetic reservoirs become active. Whether or not this could be used for volcanic forecasting remains to be seen. The rest

Research has Shown Ponds Along the Mississippi are Growing in Size due to Wind Erosion

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

A study published in the April 2017 issue of Geophysical Research Letters has shown that ponds are, on average, growing in size, and that growth is caused by the prevailing winds. This was shown by the study of over 10,000 satellite images taken between 1982 to 2016. A study like this will help conservation and environmental workers develop plans for maintaining vulnerable ponds.

The June Heat-Wave of the American South West

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

In June 2017, the American south west experienced some of the hottest temperatures felt in a long time. It was hot enough to ground air planes, and even caused some deaths. NASA's Aqua satellite measured the temperature on the surface of the Earth during the heat wave, and here is some of the results.

A complete map of forest disruption in Canada 1985-2011

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

Researchers from the Canadian Forest Service have created a time-series map of where and how forests have been disrupted between the years of 1985 and 2011. This is specifically tracking logging/harvesting and forest fires. A staggering 10 percent of our country's total forests saw some kind of damage over the almost 30 years. This type of research is helpful in tracking the Earth's carbon cycle, which is critical to understanding our changing climate.

Tracking a Crack in the Antarctic Ice Sheet

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

Scientists have been closely following the growth of a large crack in the Larsen C ice shelf on the Antarctic Peninsula. From late 2016 until now, the crack has grown about 150 km long, accelerating in late June 2017. In these dark months, the most recent observations have been done by Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIRS) on Landsat 8. If the crack reaches the coast, which is just about 13 km away, the ice will begin to calve and could be the largest iceberg ever recorded.

Deploying "Shazam for Bats" in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London.

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

An international collaboration of scientists have deployed a network of sensors in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London. What do the sensors measure? Sound! Ultrasonic bat calls to be specific. When the sensors hear a bat call, which is beyond the hearing of a human, they automatically attempt to determine the species. The data is uploaded to the cloud, and researchers are then able to keep track of the variety of bat species in the park. This experiment is in its early stages, but ultimately

Science Says Neonicotinoid-Based Pesticides are Bad for Bees

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

A large study performed by scientists from England, Hungary, and Germany has concluded that, while individual results may vary, the en masse use of of pesticides containing neonicotinoids leads to weaker Bee colonies.

Snowblower

Ingenious - Ingénieux

The return of the open road. Of all the Canadian efforts to overcome the restrictions of cold weather, the innovation of Arthur Sicard of Saint-Léonard-de-Port-Maurice, Quebec, may have made the most difference. Sicard hatched an idea back in 1894 when just eighteen years old, but it wasn’t till he was almost fifty that he found the time to produce a prototype. He called it la dénégeuse et souffleuse à neige Sicard, or the Sicard Snow Remover Snowblower. The device combined a four-wheel-drive

Bird's Eye View

Churchill Northern Studies Centre

Bird’s Eye View It’s the golden hour of Churchill weather: the temperature is above zero every day, the sun is shining, but the mosquitoes have not yet poked their ugly proboscises out of the ponds. The conditions make it the ideal season for birdwatching, and both bird researchers and the Spring’s Wings Learning Vacation have taken full advantage of that opportunity, bringing their knowledge and observations to the CNSC. Among the species sighted was a parasitic jaeger, a piratical predatory

Marine Life in the Deep

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

The Marine Biodiversity Hub is massive project aimed at understanding Australian marine biodiversity. They publish a blog daily called 'Blogging the Abbys' that is rich with science explained simply and stories from thousands of meters below the surface. In this post, the researchers talk about what they find in the mud from the bottom of the ocean.
