💡Know your hazards: Earthquake
Earthquakes killed nearly 750,000 people in 1994 – 2013, more than all other natural hazards combined.
The most effective way to manage earthquake risk is through building codes for earthquake safety.

RT @UN: The 1,157 World Heritage sites harbour over 20% of mapped global species richness within just 1% of the planet’s surface.

These areas play a critical role in preserving the diversity of life on Earth. Latest from @UNESCO: unesco.org/en/biodiversity-c…

RT @DroughtGov: September Drought Outlook by @NOAA’s @NWSCPC

Key takeaway: Massive drought expansion is expected across the Central US, particularly for the Plains and Midwest.

A bit of improvement in the Southwest, Southeast, and PR.

Otherwise, drought persists. cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/e…

One of @NOAA_AOML's main research topics is the Meridional Overturning Circulation (#MOC) which is a component of global ocean circulation that constantly moves water, heat, salt, carbon, & nutrients throughout the ocean & around the globe. More: bit.ly/47WNbgZ (1/4)

As the ocean warms & polar ice sheets melt due to increasing atmospheric CO2, near-surface stratification (separation of a body of water in layers by density) is also increasing. This prevents the sinking of surface waters into the deep ocean (2/4)

As a result, the #MOC is expected to change significantly in the coming decades, possibly disrupting the redistribution of heat, salt, nutrients & carbon across our ocean. This can directly impact #SeaLevel, #ExtremeWeather events & cause shifts in #weather & climate (3/4)
