In a degrading biosphere, community viability while depend on how well we can adapt to regional affordances and flows. Watersheds, healthy soil, forests, waste management - the matrix of possibility for reproducing community. #patchwork
It begins with relocalization: source everything locally (consume less), become a food producer, or work with one to create relationships; hire and value tradespersons, and the community of practitioners that keep our lives functioning; and cultivate mutual aid. Weave community.
Localization is necessary but not sufficient.
There is also a need to be involved in the politics of regional watershed & land management. Not everyone can do everything, of course, but be aware of how non-local actors are trying to control or extract vital materials regionally

If you care about #Asia’s #rivers, or interested in its #paleoclimate, I have a data set for you: 813 years of annual discharge (streamflow) at 62 stations on 41 rivers in 16 countries, from 1200 to 2012. This thread explains how we created it, and all the data underlying it. 
To estimate discharge hundreds of years ago, we need three things: (1) modern discharge observations, (2) a proxy of past climate, and (3) a model that links those two.
Most of our modern observations came from GSIM, a massive effort by Hong Do, @LukGudmundsson, Michael Leonard, and @sethwestra. Besides, we emailed everyone we knew asking for more data, and our colleagues kindly shared theirs.

Il y a 2-3 ans, j'ai commencé à "collectionner" et à renseigner dans une base de données des pochettes de disques dans l'optique de rédiger sur #spacefiction un billet portant sur l'usage des cartes (et globes) sur ces dernières... Corpus de pas loin 200 pochettes à ce jour ! 1/4
Et puis, le temps me manquant, j'ai mis le projet de côté... Je le prendrai très certainement plus tard, et d’ailleurs, de temps en temps, quand je tombe dessus, je rajoute encore des pochettes au dossier. 2/4
Mais en attendant, plutôt que de les laisser sur mon disque dur, j'ai décidé de les partager ici et de me lancer dans un #thread au long cours. Il y a des albums de tous les styles de musiques et des artistes de tous les niveaux. 3/4
