What if you could make waves, without actually making waves? 🤔 An environmental conservation group has warned of the effects of wake boats posing potentially harmful risks to aquatic plants and animals, increasing erosion and the transfer of invasive species. With the ENVGO NV1, we're working to turn up the exhilaration, without making harmful waves. Discover an an all-new hydrofoiling alternative to wake boats. ➡️ https://ow.ly/Q1Vf50TW7T5 #marineinnovation #sustainability #cleanenergy

They might be called national marine sanctuaries...but #DidYouKnow sanctuaries aren't ONLY found in the ocean? #MallowsBay National Marine Sanctuary is located in the #PotomacRiver, a major tributary of the #ChesapeakeBay, the largest estuary in the United States. Estuaries are often economic centers of coastal communities and oceanic food webs, providing habitat for more than 75% of the U.S. commercial fish catch at some point during their life cycles. Estuaries also support transportation and trade in the form of shipping and recreation. Millions of people visit estuaries each year to boat, swim, fish, and view wildlife, contributing billions of dollars to coastal economies each year. #WadeIn and learn even more about estuaries for #EstuariesWeek: https://lnkd.in/eeZuNVaB 📸: National Aquarium

Colorado State University Tropical Weather & Climate Research. "We anticipate an extremely active 2024 #hurricane season in the Atlantic basin. We have slightly increased our forecast and continue to call for an extremely active Atlantic hurricane season in 2024. Sea surface temperatures averaged across the hurricane Main Development Region of the tropical Atlantic and Caribbean remain near record warm levels. Extremely warm sea surface temperatures provide a much more conducive dynamic and thermodynamic environment for hurricane formation and intensification. We anticipate cool neutral ENSO or #LaNiña during the peak of the Atlantic hurricane season, resulting in reduced levels of tropical Atlantic vertical wind shear. Hurricane #Beryl, a deep tropical Category 5 hurricane, is also a likely harbinger of a hyperactive season. This forecast is of above-normal confidence. We anticipate a well above-average probability for major hurricane landfalls along the continental United States coastline and in the Caribbean. As with all hurricane seasons, coastal residents are reminded that it only takes one hurricane making landfall to make it an active season. Thorough preparations should be made every season, regardless of predicted activity. Phil Klotzbach https://lnkd.in/exFV2kmd

Ocean Exploration Trust Launches 2024 Expedition Season on May 25 to Explore Unknown Areas of the Western, Central, and Eastern Pacific Ocean In just FOUR days, The Ocean Exploration Trust launches its 2024 expedition season. The EV Nautilus will set sail for 10 expeditions taking Nautilus Corps of Exploration to Hawaii, AmericanSamoa, US PacificRemote Islands, Guam, Palau, and more. The goals of these expeditions are based on community input from scientists and resource managers as well as from local communities and stakeholders in the regions where the expeditions will take place. The 2024 E/V Nautilus expeditions are sponsored primarily by NOAA Ocean Exploration via the Ocean Exploration Cooperative Institute (OECI), with additional support from Ocean Networks Canada, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, and the Office of Naval Research.

🐝 Pollinator of the week: Common Dronefly 💮 Plant of the week: Yarrow ✅ Action of the week: Plant an orchard for pollinators Traditional orchards can be a haven for pollinators and biodiversity, especially if they have species-rich grassland beneath the trees. This habitat contains the native, naturally occurring wildflowers that our pollinators have evolved alongside, and are the best source of pollen and nectar. Autumn is the time to plant a new orchard. Find out how to manage and plant an orchard for biodiversity with our free guide: https://lnkd.in/eQjjVyEk This is the last pollinator, plant, and action of the week post for 2024. Most pollinators are overwintering now, and will re-emerge in spring next year. These shorter days are ideal for resting, reflecting, and planning ahead. What actions have you taken for pollinators and biodiversity this year? Have you planted seeds, trees, or memories? And what could you do in 2025 to help these important insects survive & thrive?

NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration First-ever interagency sea level rise website is live. On behalf of the U.S. Interagency Task Force on Sea Level Change, today the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) officially released the new site. SeaLevel.GlobalChange.gov pairs a dynamic delivery of the latest research on sea level change with foundational educational content on how and why sea level rise is happening, its impacts and actions that can be taken to address the challenges coastal communities face from rising seas. "By boosting access to sea level rise data, the Interagency Task Force on Sea Level Change is helping local communities across the nation access essential information that strengthens our resilience to the changing climate," said NOAA Administrator Richard (Rick) Spinrad, Ph.D. "NOAA is proud to be a partner in delivering this valuable whole-of-government approach to a website that bridges between scientific data and real-time decision making." https://lnkd.in/eaeztgWn

Colorado Wildlife Federation Opposes Mountain Lion and Bobcat Hunting Ban Proposition 127 - CWF supports regulated and ethical wildlife harvest for legitimate purposes as a basic principle of the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. Proposition 127 aims to ban the harvest of mountain lions and bobcats through the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission and the Colorado State Legislature. If successful, this ballot initiative would prohibit the regulated hunting of mountain lions and bobcats and end a successful and highly regulated method of wildlife management, removing decisions about wildlife management from trained wildlife experts. Wildlife management is a science. When we alter the management of one species, it affects other wildlife species in the ecosystem. To avoid unintended consequences for people and other species, decisions should be based on science and driven by wildlife professionals. Regulated hunter harvest is the best tool available to Colorado Parks and Wildlife for managing Colorado’s wildlife populations.
