Last week, Quartz, the finance publication co-founded by Zach Seward in 2012, was sold by G/O Media to a Canadian software company. All the editorial staff were fired. In a blogpost, Seward writes about Quartz's journey from thriving enterprise to "zombie brand." It's a story that has been repeated across journalism for years now, but Seward sees some hope in the ascendant non-profit media scene. "The media business often feels like a battle between idealists and cynics," he writes. "Most of my favorite news startups of the current era have chosen the non-profit path, which has its own major challenges, but at least cynicism is not one of them."

Eye #Agate is a rare gemstone distinguished by its unique patterns resembling eyes. These "eye-like" formations are created by concentric layers of minerals—such as #chalcedony, #quartz, and occasionally #jasper—that form circular or elliptical bands

[Back on #Earth ...] Between land and sea there's the beach, the #sand and its grains of #quartz that the breaking #waves continuously disintegrate, feeding the #phytoplankton with dissolved silicon.

This new source of dissolved silicon has just been discovered by several OMP researchers, including Sébastien Fabre from IRAP. It joins those provided by rivers, groundwater discharges and hydrothermal vents.

How is the #BiologicalPump, the mechanism by which the ocean captures and sequesters atmospheric #CO2, affected? Find out here: https://www.irap.omp.eu/en/2025/03/the-contribution-of-sandy-beaches-to-the-oceanic-silica-cycle/

[Retour sur #Terre ...] Entre terre et mer il y a la plage, le #sable et ses grains de #quartz que le déferlement des #vagues dissout contînûment, alimentant le #phytoplancton en silicium dissous.

Cette nouvelle source de silicium dissous vient d'être découverte par plusieurs chercheurs de l'Observatoire Midi-Pyrénées, dont Sébastien Fabre de l'IRAP. Elle s'ajoute à celles que constituent les fleuves, les décharges d’eaux souterraines et les sources hydrothermales.

En quoi la #PompeBiologique, mécanisme grâce auquel l’océan capture et séquestre le #CO2 atmosphérique, s'en trouve-t-elle affectée ? La réponse ici : https://www.irap.omp.eu/2025/03/la-contribution-des-plages-de-sable-au-cycle-oceanique-de-la-silice/
