Exklusiv: #Bundeswehr im Blindflug. Trotz Warnungen vom #Bundesrechnungshof @pressebrh hat der Bund einen 2-Milliarden-Auftrag für Spionageschiffe vergeben, ohne im Vertrag eine konkrete Leistungsbeschreibung festzulegen. Nun droht eine Kostenexplosion tagesschau.de/investigativ/n…

Die #BRH-Prüfer meldeten laut eines vertraulichen Berichts noch vor der Auftragsvergabe im Juni 2021 „erhebliche Bedenken“ an, da in dem Milliarden-Vertrag nicht festgeschrieben war, welche Leistungen die Werft überhaupt konkret für das Steuergeld erbringen sollte.

Die Rechnungshofprüfer warnten vor dem Risiko, dass die Kosten aufgrund des lückenhaften Vertrages mittelfristig deutlich steigen könnten. Bund und Haushaltsausschuss segneten den Milliardendeal im Juni 2021 dennoch ab. Nun drohen die Kosten tatsächlich zu steigen.

#naziUkraine, assisted by the fascist British colonial regime "carried out a terrorist attack on the ships of the Black Sea Fleet and civilian ships that were on the outer and inner roadsteads of the Sevastopol base."

"The attack involved nine unmanned aerial vehicles and seven autonomous maritime drones.

The prompt measures taken by the forces of the #BlackSea Fleet destroyed all air targets."

"It should be emphasised that the ships of the #BlackSeaFleet that were subjected to the #terrorist attack are involved in ensuring the security of the ‘grain corridor’ as part of an international initiative to export agricultural products from Ukrainian ports."

Die #Ostsee (#balticsea) und die Auswirkung des #Nato #Beitritt von #Schweden und #Finnland.
Um die Bedeutung, vor allem der Marine zu verstehen geht es im 2.Teil der Serie um die Grundlagen der Aufgaben der #Marine.
Die Marine ist wesentlich mehr als ein paar graue Schiffe, 1/x

sondern ein Wirkverbund aus Land-, See- und Lufteinheiten!

Neben Sensoren und Effektoren ist Führung elementar.
Sensoren dienen der Aufklärung und Zielerfassung/-zuweisung.
Effektoren sind die Waffen (Geschütze, Raketen etc)
Führung ist das, 2/x Bild von weaponsandwarfare.com

Was alles verbindet und koordiniert. Es gibt sogar Schiffe die nur zur Führung von großen Verbänden da sind. Diese werden teilweise sogar noch von weiteren Schiffen unterstützt welche eine Warfare Area (Kampfbereich) wie z.B. Flugabwehr leiten.3/x de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-Ridg…

Since Monday a small but powerful delegation is representing @CREAF_ecologia at #UNOceanConference2022 in Lisbon.

Why are we, a mainly (but not exclusively) terrestrial ecology research center, at #UNOC2022?

🧵#ScienceDiplomacy #TurquoiseDiplomacy #NoBlueNoGreen #CREAF20k

As Her Deepness @SylviaEarle says, “no blue 💙, no green 💚”, ‘cuz what happens in & to the #ocean affects the whole world since the ocean absorbs:

🔥 90% of the 🌏 extra heat since the 50s
🫧 1/4 of the CO2 from human emissions

#UNOC2022 #OceanDiplomacy #TurquoiseDiplomacy

And what happens in the 💚 also affects deeply the 💙

Our postdoc @ezteliz research focuses on the links between terrestrial and #marine systems, and how river discharges have a great impact on coastal areas, specially #plankton communities.

[#THREAD] En ce lendemain de la journée internationale des forêts @JIF_France, le conflit opposant certains militants écologistes et les gestionnaires/exploitants forestiers pose une question centrale : la #forêt était elle mieux gérée avant ? 🧐
👇Réponse illustrée

https://twitter.com/UCFFcoop/status/1506905844499296267

Sous l'ancien régime, la forêt est un espace multifonctionnel. On y prélève du #bois pour la #construction, la #marine, pour se chauffer mais également sous la forme de #charbon de bois pour l'#industrie sidérurgique, très gourmande en combustible.

On retrouve ainsi des massifs de #futaies (arbres de grande taille et de gros diamètre) prélevé entre 80 et 100 ans et des #taillis (bois issus de rejets de souches) exploités à TRES courte rotation, entre 10 et 25 ans, dévitalisant les sols.

1. Is financial market pricing in some heightened Taiwan Strait war risk this week? Yes, a little. No perfect measure. With China on holiday last wk, can attribute some pop of 5-yr CDS price as caused by heighted attention, which happens around Oct with back to back national days

2. To put in context, China 5 Yr CDS value is 48.87, reveals a 0.81% implied probability of default, on a 40% recovery rate supposed. US 5 Yr CDS is 17.4, reveals a 0.29% implied probability of default. Recent increase in US mostly by the debt ceiling fight. #MintTheCoin hahaha

3. @PredictIt betting market doesn't have a Taiwan specific market, but has 3 China related contracts. Betting on who would be confirmed for next US Ambassador to China, and Pres. Xi's chance of staying as party General Secretary for next 10 years.

There’s a gaping (loop)hole in #climate reporting, calculations & countermeasures—#BlueCarbon!

Must finally put #Seabed #CarbonSink on agenda for #COP26...

Here too #China leads world in #carbon damage—by far.

Time for accountability on #RoadToGlasgow!

foreignpolicy.com/2021/09/10/chi…

#Ocean covers 71% of world’s surface..<10% mapped w/ modern sonar.

Salt marshes, mangroves, seagrass beds & ultra-deep abyssal #seabed absorb large quantities of #CO2 from atmosphere & balancing critical #climate systems.

Disrupting risks grave & potentially irreversible harms

.@Nature: “#marine sediments are the largest pool of organic #carbon on the planet.”

Est. vol. ~7 trillion metric tons—>3X cumulative anthropogenic #CO2 emissions since 1750.

Bottom trawl #fishing & #seabed mining—both #PRC-led—risk damaging disruption.

Australia has for years been battling to keep the Great Barrier Reef off the “in danger” list. On June 22, 2021, a UN committee recommended that the GBR should be added to a list of “in danger” World Heritage Sites.

Read more about Great Barrier Reef in the thread below:

(1/7)

The #GBR is 2,300 km long and extends across 346,000 sq. km. area, hosting an assemblage of fishes and invertebrates in the reefs, sharks, rays, anemones and myriad other forms all of which need a delicate ecological balance to thrive.

(2/7)

#GBR won a place on the World Heritage List under the World Heritage Convention, 1972, as it has outstanding universal value. As a fabled wonder of the natural world, Australia’s GBR and its diversity of #marine life found a place on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 1981.

(1) The 4th stage of the Program by the Min of #Fisheries to build #ArtificialReefs and #FishSpawning habitats with old busses and concrete structures is been successfully conducted in the seas off the #Jaffna peninsula. Earlier stages were conducted in Trinco, Galle and Matara.

(2) The protest by the #TamilNadu #Fishermen against the program stating it as an irresponsible move has been rejected by the #GOSL and will be continued. Similar programs are conducted globally, it has been recommended by the #MarineResearch Institute in SL, #NARA as well.

(3) While it will boost Fish Spawning, #Marine Habitats and #environment damaged over the years by human factors and #illegal fishing methods such as #BottomLineTrawling, it will also act as an shield against bottom line trawling conducted illegally by the #Indian Fishermen.

NITI Aayog Islands Development Project: Megathread
The project involves:
- Redevelopment and Industrialisation of #GreatNicobar
- Redevelopment into a Model City of other islands, starting with #LittleAndaman Island
ensciencopedia.com/2021/05/niti-a… [1/16]

PART 1: REDEVELOPMENT AND INDUSTRIALISATION OF #GREATNICOBAR ISLAND
- The project involves construction of an #airport, #port, & a transportation system
- #Galathea WLS was denotified for the project
- The WLS is known for being the nesting site of the #LeatherbackTurtle. [2/16]

The denotification of the WLS in January contradicted the National Marine #Turtle Action Plan (released Feb 2021) which declared the Galathea WLS as one of India’s few ‘Important #Coastal and #Marine #Biodiversity Areas’ and ‘Important Marine Turtle #Habitats’. [3/16]
