Hello to Those Who Schmooze Science,
I hope that you found what you wanted today with the Super Bowl. For me I found no lines at the grocery store or the gas station. I did have a lot of computer data issues with today’s SciSchmooze though. Which will make this one a bit briefer than usual. If you did stay home for the Super Bowl, I hope Taylor was able to join you, the ads were as good as hoped for, and my friend Jerry’s was a big hit with the clydesdale fans.
Now, on to the science! Did you know that Sunday 11 February was the International Day of Women and Girls in STEM. Science when it is at its best, is fueled by diverse voices, whether that's someone's gender, ethnicity, race or life experience. Science has always worked in ways not expected. With Valentine’s day coming up I think that this is some information that you should not follow… Cures to Improve ones Sex Life! For example…
Speaking of how women were not told the truth… The Radium Girls were so contaminated that if you stood over their graves today with a Geiger counter, the radiation levels would still cause the needles to jump more than 80 years later.
Let’s be honest here. It has often been the case that people and animals have been taken advantage of, and suffered horribly by some who have figured out how to use the science, but many times it was out of the ignorance of the “perpetrator”. We really need to be sympathetic to the knowledge of those involved and the time it was happening. Science today is often used the “wrong way”. It really is important to try and understand “the rest of the story”.
If you read my missives very often you might recognize that I am a fan of the universe and its’ complexity. My friends have heard me say it but to paraphrase… If it’s complexity that you strive to understand, the brain is the most complicated object in the universe. I hope you enjoy Trees, Stars, and the Wonder of Being Human
Now that the big holiday breaks are over, the opportunities for learning cool new stuff are back with a vengeance. Here are a few to consider out of many…
Funnel of Love: The Secret Sex Lives of Harbor Porpoises - St. V day at noon
After Dark: Sexplorations- Thu at 6:00 PM
Wonderfest: The Most Famous Equation Sat at 7:30
The big day for big shadow is approaching. It’s less than 2 months away. I hope you have made plans to go see it if that is what you are thinking. I hear that a lot of people will be there. There will be many other ways to see it as well. How will the 2024 total solar eclipse differ from the 2017 total solar eclipse? Eclipseophile has this cloud forecast for you! There’s still time to get involved too. Check out the Eclipse Soundscapes Project, it’s a NASA Citizen Science Project. We’re between Two Eclipses of the Sun Coming to North America 2023-24.
It is nice that we have been getting some good rainfall it probably won’t last. Speaking of water, check out How Wastewater Is Made to Be Safely Drinkable and It’s not true that these are just ecological voids where nothing is living there. You might also think about how Whales and dolphins in American waters are losing food and habitat to climate change
Here’s some more interesting science stuff!
So now that I hear the fireworks going off, the super bowl must be over! I wonder who won and if Taylor made it and the plot to rig the election have is working!
Go out and learn some cool new science this week.

Coastal dynamics in the Anthropocene: Integrated watershed-coastal processes on temperate Eastern Pacific coasts - 02/12/2024 12:30 PM
Shriram Center Stanford
The integrated effects of watershed hydrology and coastal hydrodynamics are felt in wetlands, estuaries, deltas, and exposed coasts. Small watersheds with steep topography, common in California and Chile experience temporally variable watershed and oceanic forcing (e.g. seasonal precipitation, seasonally variable wave climate), which manifest as episodic events. Climate change, drought, and human population demands have resulted in anthropogenic alterations to hydrological cycles and coastal pressures (e.g. water diversions, construction of dikes, dredging).
Speaker: Megan Williams, Catholic University of Chile
Measurement-induced entanglement and control transitions using feedback - 02/12/2024 02:30 PM
Stanley Hall Berkeley
In recent years, substantial progress has been achieved in understanding entanglement transitions in monitored quantum systems. In this talk, I will summarize some key facts we’ve learned and how they can be used in quantum control protocols. Drawing parallels with classically chaotic systems, we identify features that link and delink measurement and control transitions. In particular, by strategically engineering around an (approximate) unstable fixed point, control can be achieved at or above the measurement-induced phase transition. When these points coincide, the critical properties of control dominate other critical properties, becoming observable in linear operators in the density matrix…

The Fast Radio Sky - 02/12/2024 07:00 PM
Hewlett Teaching Center Stanford
In 2007, astronomers discovered a new mysterious cosmic phenomenon: Fast Radio Bursts. These events consist of short, intense blasts of radio waves arriving from far outside our Milky Way galaxy. Their origin is unknown, however Fast Radio Bursts appear ubiquitous in our Universe, with roughly 1000 arriving every day over the full sky. I will describe the Fast Radio Burst mystery and what is presently known about it, and present a revolutionary new radio telescope recently built in Canada that is enabling astronomers to make major progress in our understanding of the FRB puzzle.
Speaker: Victoria Kaspi, McGill University

The Search for Life Beyond Earth: How it’s Done, Where it Stands and Why it Matters - Livestream - 02/13/2024 09:00 AM
SETI Institute
Humans have pondered the question of our place in the cosmos and whether we are alone in the Universe since our ancestors first gazed upon the stars with wonder and curiosity. For most of human history the question of life beyond Earth has been relegated to the religious and philosophical. But with the invention of the radio and humanity’s transition to a technological species, one of our most profound questions has migrated from the domain of intellectual speculation to the domain of scientific pursuit. Technological activities such as radio transmissions can travel at lightspeed across interstellar and even intergalactic space and are readily differentiated from natural phenomena.

Where is my head? The evolution of body plan in echinoderms - Livestream - 02/14/2024 11:00 AM
Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute
The origin of the pentaradial body plan of echinoderms from a bilateral ancestor is one of the most enduring zoological puzzles. Since echinoderms are defined by morphological novelty, even the most basic axial comparisons with their bilaterian relatives are problematic. To revisit this classical question, we used conserved antero-posterior (AP) axial molecular markers to determine whether the highly derived adult body plan of echinoderms masks underlying patterning similarities with other deuterostomes.

How Birds are Responding to Climate Change - Livestream - 02/15/2024 07:00 PM
Golden Gate Bird Alliance
When we contemplate how bird diversity has changed, we often focus on the handful of species we have lost entirely. But while we have yet to lose a single bird species to our rapidly changing climate, birds and other creatures are currently adapting and responding in myriad ways. Across the world, species are shifting their geographic distributions, shifting the timing of life history events, and even shifting their body shapes and sizes. Integrating field research and citizen science over decades to centuries, the research presented in this talk demonstrates the complex ways that species are responding to a changing climate.

Hexagon: Spies in the Sky - Reconnaissance Technology during the Cold War - 02/17/2024 11:00 AM
Hiller Aviation Museum San Carlos
During the Cold War, the US evolved reconnaissance technology, resulting in today’s real-time video capabilities. Initially, film was used in satellites to monitor treaty compliance and intelligence gathering of the Soviet Union and other “denied areas.” The vehicle, HEXAGON, was 60-feet long and took pictures from 100 miles up. The program was urgent and required cooperation between the CIA and the Air Force, guided by the National Reconnaissance Office. This unclassified briefing by someone “who was there,” gives a first-person historical look at how high-resolution images were not only taken, but returned via parachute to be caught in mid-air. Essential to success was the work of the launch team, command & control, tracking stations and the aircrews who made the daring catches of the film buckets. This program was a critical Cold War asset.
