"We're covering #roots in class today," said Temis, miming a noose around her neck.

"Math class? Or botany?" asked Ignis.

Temis yanked the invisible noose. "Neither. Doctrine class. 'What are the three heroic roots? Martyrdom, which is the root of Glory; Tenacity, which is the root of Victory; and Strength, with is at the root of Power.' And then there are the Illuminating Roots, the Sublime Roots, the Fortunate Roots--on & on! I don't want any more roots--I want wings!"

Track Dogs, het genre-tartende Folk-Americana-Roots Latino kwartet uit Madrid, kondigt de release aan van hun aanstaande "carrière" bestaande uit een dubbelalbum met 40 nummers, Tracks Laid, Tracks Covered. Met 31 nummers afkomstig uit hun eerste 10 jaar aan album-, EP- en single-releases naast 9 gloednieuwe opnames, blijkt Track Dogs onweerstaanbaar eclectisch als altijd.

Continued thread

above is a playlist that I kinda managed to push through in a radioshow on local #RadioŠtudent about "where did the funk come from" - the radioshow (called Vibe Check) is dedicated to electronic dance music - especially on contemporary bass multi-genres

you can listen to my smart-ass-ness (in slovenian) here:

thanks so much to one of the best DJs in Slovenia currently (in my opinion) DJ Raketa for hosting me

Did you know that plants adjust their root systems daily to follow the water? Check out the new article by Ceolin, @schymans et al. in Biogeosciences: bg.copernicus.org/articles/22/

bg.copernicus.orgRoot growth dynamics and allocation as a response to rapid and local changes in soil moistureAbstract. Roots exhibit plasticity in morphology and physiology when exposed to fluctuating nutrient and water availability. However, the dynamics of daily timescale adjustments to changes in water availability are unclear, and experimental evidence of the rates of such adjustments is needed. In this study, we investigated how the root system responds within days to a sudden and localized increase in soil moisture (“hydromatching”). Root systems of maize plants were grown in soil columns divided into four layers by vaseline barriers and continuously monitored using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology. We found that, within 48 h after application of water pulses in a given soil layer, root growth rates in that layer increased, while root growth rates in other layers decreased. Our results indicate local root growth was guided by local changes in soil moisture and potentially even by changes in soil moisture occurring in other parts of the soil profile, which would result in a coordinated response of the entire root system. Hydromatching in maize appears to be a dynamic and reversible phenomenon, for which the investment in biomass is continuously promoted in wet soil volumes and/or halted in drier soil volumes. This sheds new light onto the plasticity of root systems of maize plants and their ability to adjust to local and sudden changes in soil moisture, as would be expected due to patchy infiltration after rainfall or irrigation events.

Benjaminus Ficcus

A majestic tree with sprawling roots and hanging moss and tendrils descending to spread roots. The scene is a serene landscape, depicting a Benjaminus Ficcus in a grassy garden under a bright sky at the Immigration Museum in São Paulo. It's the multiple trunks that fascinate me!
