@canyakker Why bother about seeing things when you can jump on top of them with your new long legs?

Over the past few weeks, a #phytoplankton #bloom has been observed in the northern Adriatic Sea.

High temperatures and freshwater inputs from recent heavy rainfall have favoured the bloom.

The freshwater input has reduced the sea surface salinity, creating an ideal environment for the rapid proliferation of phytoplankton.

Rising temperatures have further accelerated the process, making the bloom so large that it is even visible from space.

The bloom has also led to the formation of #mucilage, which has accumulated along the coasts of some Italian regions bordering the Adriatic Sea.

This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 7 August 2024,
shows both the mucilage (in white) and the phytoplankton bloom (in green) off the coast of the city of Rimini.

I almost forgot #caturday! Earlier this week my wife finish crocheting a throw. As soon as she went to bed Tigger hopped up and laid down on it.

He seemed quite proud of the bed mom made for him. He slept there all night.

Two questions


Hi !Friendica Support,
I've only been able to upload 1 photo at a time to Friendica. Is bulk upload available?

The thumbnail that is shown with a link is confusing at best because it is blurred. Is there any way to unblur it?

Thank you!

in reply to Tio

Thanks @Tio. As far as I know, I have no control over, or foreknowledge of, what is used as the thumbnail.
@Tio
in reply to Dirk

Yes you do not. So it is up to them to put up a proper image.

in reply to Laurens

Unfortunately there is no way to see what you're referring to.
