@@76rjackson Yes and no, it may be substantially under a percent higher due to lower pull from Earth, but over all, they end up being lower. So lower tides, or higher tides, depending on your reference point. If there were an island in the Indian Ocean Geoid Low, they may experience a slightly (and I mean SLIGHTLY) higher tide than elsewhere in the world, when compared to local average sea level. But over all, sea level in a lower gravity area is generally lower than average, as Sabine explained. In the case of the Indian Ocean Geoid Low, it's around 340 feet lower than, or just over 100 meters below, average sea level. This is actually because gravity is what causes water to "seek its level" AKA move downwards until it can't anymore. In a lower gravity area, there is less pull on the water, so it's going to pull less of the water there, therefore there will be less water in an area of less gravity. Seems kind of counterintuitive, I know, but it's true. On the flip-side, neither the Moon's gravity or the Sun's gravity are affected by the IOG Low, and so the effect of tides on the area is almost the same. Of course, the Earth doesn't pull back as hard, but it's still pulling with way more than 99% of its gravitational strength in that area, so the effect on tides from the Sun and Moon are generally almost the same in the area.

Until AI doesn't have the abilities of a fly it would never be a real AI. The big question for AI-solution is to find out what triggers the fly to do what a fly does on a millisecond-by-millisecond basis. In humans, that translates into How does the brain form questions and seek their answers?
What I learned today, evolution is a two way process. Some of the species evolve discover a new atomic nucleus while some of the species devolve to write tweets like a fruit fly.
Vermiculture can help provide more nutrients for seaweed farms. Particularly "worm tea" which is high-nutrient water that has been percolated through worm-enriched soil. Perfect for delivering usable nitrogen to seaweed. Or harness bacteria from legume nodules that help the plants fix nitrogen.
Understand Jordan Petersons tweeks. My opinion of you Sabine just went up several notches. I have always liked your physics but your humor is cutting edge and ever so accurate.
I would take issue with two of your comments on climate modelling. 1) Contrary to your assertion, we have no data that climate is changing quickly. In fact, one of the quirks in the global warming narrative is that we've had a 15 year span recently where they had to try to explain why warming paused. And 2) the high resolution problem resides in the fact that the data sets used by NASA and NOAA are filled with interpolated data from stations that haven't sent actual data since the 1960's. The interpolation schemes are statistical junk science and so no model built off of it will ever be useful for anything other than pushing for support to increase a department budget.

Not to happy about having the promotional content in the middle of the video when you're just forced to watch it. Sabine I guess this is deliberate, but if you can revert to putting it at the end... I think most of us would appreciate. To other viewers: please upvote my comment if you agree! Still love your videos though, thanks for the quality science!
the mapping of the fly is a huge deal in my opinion .. you always start super simple to try and understand more complicated issues.. we are surely going to start having leaps and bounds in understanding how the brain works with this progress ..
I'm wondering if we could make a full simulation of a fly. As in, a "real" virtual fly with a full brain. Surely if that's possible, it would be a strong argument that we could make general AI.
Thanks Sabine. Some of your phone 'conversations' are hard to follow, but you have the right balance of humour with teaching and good reporting. That's appreciated. 🙂👍
I have never even listen to the adds on you tube let alone buy something, but this Galaxy Light is super cool, I actually bought one. Thanks Sabine. Love you videos, keep up the good work.
@Sabine, Thanks for explaining how the Lemurian Craton sank, taking Krishna's city off of west India under the waves and leaving Madagascar as the last remainder of Lemuria. This 20K thick(!) piece of crust being less dense than the mantle usually found 2K to 5K deep (except beneath mountains ) would cause lower gravity. Krishna's city was found and timbers carbon dated to the last global cataclysm circa 4000 BC
There is a group working on practical demonstrations to tackle that seaweed farming nutrient problem and the solution may be artificial nutrient upwelling using what is essentially a pipe to the depths (as deep as 500 m), with a wave or solar powered pump bringing up water (up to a million liters per day) which will also help the seaweed survive marine heatwaves. If it all works, that would bring to bear much of the open ocean and not just those regions already in high demand (and which already suffer from marine heatwaves, and that makes seaweed farming or kelp cultivation impossible during the hottest months of the year, today!) As the oceans get even hotter it might even stop the overturning circulation altogether, making for even more lifeless oceans where life currently still flourishes. Restoring the overturning circulation that way would then be even more of a pressing need, even if it was artificial. Their organization is called the Climate Foundation, I think, led by Dr. Brian von Herzen, and they've already built some subscale demonstration seaweed farms that have been proven to survive a recent cyclone season. They call their technology "marine permaculture". They are looking for volunteers and, no surprise, funding to reach their stated aim of demonstrating a large commercially sound seaweed farm that works on the open oceans. It's the only really large scale idea with a scalable solution that I've encountered thus far with some serious drawdown potential in the amounts that humankind needs if we are going to be serious about removing all the CO2 we've pumped out since we started industrializing.
I would think they start point to point ,on how it works in different scenarios ,via chemical & computer modelling & then collecting & making 3d vin diagram of that now they would have isolated the flight control mechansim & work on an AI model from that
they freeze the fly. Then they cut out the head. They put the head under an electronic microscope, MRI and other imaging techniques. Then they process all the images. Then they do it all over again with another fly, then again and again. In many cases they slice the head and process each slice. they also use chemicals to color certain types of molecules. They can also use radioactive compounds that attach themselves to certain molecules, etc. Over time the gaps in the geometrical model of the fly-brain are filled in and the complete picture emerges. It is simple, it is just a matter of money. It does not mean that they know how all this is working electronically. Also, doing it to humans could require few billion humans heads to complete the mapping. It would result in reducing the number of humans which in turn would benefit the environment.
I read the title and thought, "Great, more pseudo science." The I saw it was from Sabine and was like," ... or not!" You're one of the few channels that I trust with these topics.
Continental plates are buoyant because of the concentration of silica-rich (felsic) magma and associated stones like granite and rhyolite. Basalt (mafic) oceanic plates are saturated with water, which lowers the melting point of silica once the slab begins to re-melt at depth. This wet silica-rich magma rises to become plutons and pyroclastic volcanics, typically called an 'orogeny'. In this case, it was two oceanic plates colliding, and the pluton is emplaced in a basalt sheet instead. The specific gravity of averaged basalt is 3.1, granite 2.9. This difference alone is enough to create continents, and this anomaly as well. Silica is the 'driving indicator' because it is the most common mineral on Earth. This study seems to imply very common processes. If the pluton creating the anomaly were under a continental plate, I doubt anyone would notice it. But in contrast to the neighbouring oceanic plates, it looks more like a proto-continent, more like the ancient process that created the first cratons. It is big, certainly has it's effect on our activity, but otherwise it's harmless and normal.
"Earth Visualisation Engine" produces a nice acronym without the strained back-construction science projects usually resort to these days! But it set me wondering what Douglas Adams would have made of it. A civilisation that wrecked their environment in an obsessive quest to make enough energy to feed the compute needed to accurately simulate it perhaps? I love the way Sabine leaves us to make these connections ourselves. She does not actually explicitly associate Jordan Peterson with a fruit fly, just places the two concepts in close proximity and leaves us to connect them! (Although see the chapter heading snapshots above.)

Sabine-if you’re in need of a topic.. check out the beach sand theft in Jamaica. Happened back in the 90’s but apparently the worlds countries are stealing what little sand is left for their tourism beaches. Dubai is out of sand.. so is Bangkok. I watched a CHUPPL video on it for reference. Would love to hear your thoughts. They say we’ll be out of sand by 2060
I can't wait for the biggest breakthrough in general purpose computer structure design in decades: The cheap, practical merger of memory and storage into the same thing. No more need for separate RAM, hard drives and caches all operating at different access speeds. A terabyte of persistent RAM and effectively instant booting and loading. No need to copy a program into memory; just run it in situ in storage.
The Crew Health and Performance Evaluation Analogue (CHAPEA) is a necessary step towards a base and at some point maybe even a settlement on Mars. I am curious how severe an emergency would have to be for a participant to be released though. Knowing that you will be rescued if there is an emergency vs. knowing that you are basically screwed probably makes a big difference, psychologically speaking.
The African Forest Elephant is the rarest of the naturally occurring Elephants - that is also the reason most people have never heard of it. Strange synergies
Not necessarily m8, if you're assuming that the purpose of the study was to "Map a fly brain", when for all we know the study was in fact interested in developing better mapping techniques and technologies. The fly brain "breakthrough" is just the part that is easily communicated to the public via the media, perhaps. Also why would you NOT be interested in mapping fly brains based on having functional maps of entirely different species with vastly different nervous systems? Mapping mouse brains probably doesn't tell you much about insect nervous systems ..... You seem to be assuming that there is some kind of hierarchy of research subjects, which may or may not actually be the view of researchers involved. Research is at heart an attempt to gain functional knowledge we did not possess previously, to that end mapping the brains of most animals (as we are busy doing with Genome mapping) is probably fairly functional research, imposing narrow and artificial hierarchies doesn't help achieve anything.
@@Blowfeld20k They are not doing it for the funsies or for the sake of it. I have no doubt that they're doing it so they can eventually move up to human brain to better understand it, by mapping bigger and bigger and more complex brains.
On the subject of computer memory, what would it take to make memory or gates that are “nano-mechanical” for lack of a better word? As in, moving a single particle, atom, or molecule from a “zero” to “one” position and back? Would this even be sensible?
Hey, ECE masters student here. I personally don't think it would ever be reasonable (FOR CLASSICAL COMPUTING) to have memory or logic controlled by a single particle. At room temperature, the randomness of electrons and other particles I think would make it extremely difficult to have a single particle hold a bit for any reasonable amount of time. But when we have thousands / millions / billions of electrons being held / flowing through a gate, the noise gets canceled out and we can see a clear 0 or 1. However, to my understanding, quantum computers already do close to what you're describing, where a single bit is actually represented by a single particle. To my understanding, this works without a ridiculous amount of randomness *because they're cooled to near absolute zero.*
Climate scientists really need to humble themselves with these models... I can remember when they first started going mainstream in the mid-late 2000s and come now 15ish years later, not a single one of the claims has materialized in any appreciable way. For instance: I live on the Florida coastline, these models were predicting a dramatic rise in sea levels by the mid 21st century. We are nearly a quarter of the way through this century, yet siesta key beach is exactly as it was when I growing up in the 90s. You'll have to forgive my dubious perception of what appears, at least to me, to be little more than a cgi scare tactic.
This isn't a problem with the models, but with the media, who give disproportionate weight to the most extreme predictions, and have no concept of margin for error.
There are two other factors to consider, though. The first is that climate change is nonlinear. Changes tend to accelerate, and current data indicates we may be reaching a period of rapid change, especially in some regions. The other factor is the unreliability of human memory. The climate has probably changed more since you were a child than you realise.
I hsve s picture of me taken in front of s Swiss glacier in 1975. I visited it again years ago. It has melted upwards about 200 meters due to climate change. It’s real alright.
@@matthewparker9276 Climate can change without one realizing. But you can easily look at reference points and compare to old photos to check sea levels. No memory trickery there. I think potholer54 has a video on sea levels not rising, I'm on mobile and will have to watch later.
I recall reading an Isaac Asimov short story in the 1960s (that was written in the 1940s 0r 1950s) the thrust of which was astronaut explorers investigating a world where a high civilisation had suddenly imploded and eventually disappeared after regressing to savagery and extinction. The point was that the high civilisation depended so much on computers that when the technology was not correctly updated vital data was lost, files were corrupted and eventually the whole system broke down, leaving helpless citizens. They had left the running of everything to computers, and had no survival skills when the system broke down. The explorers were able, from a buried library, to reconstruct the history of computing progress as regards data storage and processing and the final stage of data storage was via a system called ''the nudged electron'', whose ''nudged'' state represented the binary system. Are we now seeing the introduction of computing via the ''nudged photon''?
I don't get the 2:11 joke. Jordan Peterson is the only other person we humans have that's even more intelligent than Sabine. I'd jokes expect to be made about lunatic persons; not someone that constantly finds the broadest possible common middle ground and manages to bridge the gap between the political sides.

The seaweed clip seemed pretty idiotic to me. We've already been successful creating an algae farm to sequester carbon for 4 years using a single boat. 2012. Russ George, Haida Nation, 100 tons of iron sulfate, boosted salmon stocks for 4 years. Wildly successful. Mostly, suppressed and other than that, mostly mischaracterized.

The solution to the climate is to purge all billionaires and everyone who is not a multimillionaire.
Finally a product I might buy.
2:06 the fruit fly brain map should help with this project, too...
Until AI doesn't have the abilities of a fly it would never be a real AI.
The big question for AI-solution is to find out what triggers the fly to do what a fly does on a millisecond-by-millisecond basis.
In humans, that translates into How does the brain form questions and seek their answers?
What I learned today, evolution is a two way process. Some of the species evolve discover a new atomic nucleus while some of the species devolve to write tweets like a fruit fly.
The Peterson joke would fit even better after the fly segment :'D
Vermiculture can help provide more nutrients for seaweed farms. Particularly "worm tea" which is high-nutrient water that has been percolated through worm-enriched soil. Perfect for delivering usable nitrogen to seaweed.
Or harness bacteria from legume nodules that help the plants fix nitrogen.
Understand Jordan Petersons tweeks. My opinion of you Sabine just went up several notches. I have always liked your physics but your humor is cutting edge and ever so accurate.

I would take issue with two of your comments on climate modelling. 1) Contrary to your assertion, we have no data that climate is changing quickly. In fact, one of the quirks in the global warming narrative is that we've had a 15 year span recently where they had to try to explain why warming paused. And 2) the high resolution problem resides in the fact that the data sets used by NASA and NOAA are filled with interpolated data from stations that haven't sent actual data since the 1960's. The interpolation schemes are statistical junk science and so no model built off of it will ever be useful for anything other than pushing for support to increase a department budget.
Great video. Love your sense of humour. 😊
I hope to celebrate 1M subs Sabine does a Q&A!! Or podcast! Or an extended "red phone" joke!

This episode is heavy
Not to happy about having the promotional content in the middle of the video when you're just forced to watch it. Sabine I guess this is deliberate, but if you can revert to putting it at the end... I think most of us would appreciate. To other viewers: please upvote my comment if you agree! Still love your videos though, thanks for the quality science!

Always look forward to this week's science news.
the mapping of the fly is a huge deal in my opinion .. you always start super simple to try and understand more complicated issues.. we are surely going to start having leaps and bounds in understanding how the brain works with this progress ..
I'm wondering if we could make a full simulation of a fly. As in, a "real" virtual fly with a full brain. Surely if that's possible, it would be a strong argument that we could make general AI.
Thanks Sabine. Some of your phone 'conversations' are hard to follow, but you have the right balance of humour with teaching and good reporting. That's appreciated. 🙂👍

@Sabine, Thanks for explaining how the Lemurian Craton sank, taking Krishna's city off of west India under the waves and leaving Madagascar as the last remainder of Lemuria. This 20K thick(!) piece of crust being less dense than the mantle usually found 2K to 5K deep (except beneath mountains ) would cause lower gravity.
Krishna's city was found and timbers carbon dated to the last global cataclysm circa 4000 BC
Yeah I've got issues with coherence and interference sometimes too. 😹
This update on science news was very interesting and fun. Thank you.
Big fan Of Your Explanation Sabine
There is a group working on practical demonstrations to tackle that seaweed farming nutrient problem and the solution may be artificial nutrient upwelling using what is essentially a pipe to the depths (as deep as 500 m), with a wave or solar powered pump bringing up water (up to a million liters per day) which will also help the seaweed survive marine heatwaves. If it all works, that would bring to bear much of the open ocean and not just those regions already in high demand (and which already suffer from marine heatwaves, and that makes seaweed farming or kelp cultivation impossible during the hottest months of the year, today!) As the oceans get even hotter it might even stop the overturning circulation altogether, making for even more lifeless oceans where life currently still flourishes. Restoring the overturning circulation that way would then be even more of a pressing need, even if it was artificial.
Their organization is called the Climate Foundation, I think, led by Dr. Brian von Herzen, and they've already built some subscale demonstration seaweed farms that have been proven to survive a recent cyclone season. They call their technology "marine permaculture". They are looking for volunteers and, no surprise, funding to reach their stated aim of demonstrating a large commercially sound seaweed farm that works on the open oceans. It's the only really large scale idea with a scalable solution that I've encountered thus far with some serious drawdown potential in the amounts that humankind needs if we are going to be serious about removing all the CO2 we've pumped out since we started industrializing.
How were they able to map the fruit fly brain so accurately?
Microsurgeons.
Scanning and computer imaging of some kind is my very uneducated guess.
I would think they start point to point ,on how it works in different scenarios ,via chemical & computer modelling & then collecting & making 3d vin diagram of that
now they would have isolated the flight control mechansim & work on an AI model from that
They used a banana.
they freeze the fly. Then they cut out the head. They put the head under an electronic microscope, MRI and other imaging techniques. Then they process all the images. Then they do it all over again with another fly, then again and again. In many cases they slice the head and process each slice. they also use chemicals to color certain types of molecules. They can also use radioactive compounds that attach themselves to certain molecules, etc.
Over time the gaps in the geometrical model of the fly-brain are filled in and the complete picture emerges. It is simple, it is just a matter of money.
It does not mean that they know how all this is working electronically.
Also, doing it to humans could require few billion humans heads to complete the mapping. It would result in reducing the number of humans which in turn would benefit the environment.
I read the title and thought, "Great, more pseudo science." The I saw it was from Sabine and was like," ... or not!" You're one of the few channels that I trust with these topics.
A dig at Peterson is always welcome
Continental plates are buoyant because of the concentration of silica-rich (felsic) magma and associated stones like granite and rhyolite. Basalt (mafic) oceanic plates are saturated with water, which lowers the melting point of silica once the slab begins to re-melt at depth. This wet silica-rich magma rises to become plutons and pyroclastic volcanics, typically called an 'orogeny'. In this case, it was two oceanic plates colliding, and the pluton is emplaced in a basalt sheet instead. The specific gravity of averaged basalt is 3.1, granite 2.9. This difference alone is enough to create continents, and this anomaly as well. Silica is the 'driving indicator' because it is the most common mineral on Earth. This study seems to imply very common processes. If the pluton creating the anomaly were under a continental plate, I doubt anyone would notice it. But in contrast to the neighbouring oceanic plates, it looks more like a proto-continent, more like the ancient process that created the first cratons. It is big, certainly has it's effect on our activity, but otherwise it's harmless and normal.
So instead of diet and exercise, I can just move to the Indian Ocean to lose weight?
As little as a few milligrams.
"Earth Visualisation Engine" produces a nice acronym without the strained back-construction science projects usually resort to these days! But it set me wondering what Douglas Adams would have made of it. A civilisation that wrecked their environment in an obsessive quest to make enough energy to feed the compute needed to accurately simulate it perhaps? I love the way Sabine leaves us to make these connections ourselves. She does not actually explicitly associate Jordan Peterson with a fruit fly, just places the two concepts in close proximity and leaves us to connect them! (Although see the chapter heading snapshots above.)

Sabine-if you’re in need of a topic.. check out the beach sand theft in Jamaica. Happened back in the 90’s but apparently the worlds countries are stealing what little sand is left for their tourism beaches. Dubai is out of sand.. so is Bangkok.

I can't wait for the biggest breakthrough in general purpose computer structure design in decades: The cheap, practical merger of memory and storage into the same thing. No more need for separate RAM, hard drives and caches all operating at different access speeds. A terabyte of persistent RAM and effectively instant booting and loading. No need to copy a program into memory; just run it in situ in storage.
Me: don't go mining for heavy metals there.
The Crew Health and Performance Evaluation Analogue (CHAPEA) is a necessary step towards a base and at some point maybe even a settlement on Mars. I am curious how severe an emergency would have to be for a participant to be released though. Knowing that you will be rescued if there is an emergency vs. knowing that you are basically screwed probably makes a big difference, psychologically speaking.
Oh yeah baby explain that gravity hole

The African Forest Elephant is the rarest of the naturally occurring Elephants - that is also the reason most people have never heard of it.
Strange synergies
Some of us Albertans feel about Jordan Pederson in the same way The Dixie Chicks felt about W. being from Texas.
Very strange that they mapped a fly brain. They had the whole mouse brain mapped out a decade ago at the medical research MPI in Heidelberg.
Not necessarily m8, if you're assuming that the purpose of the study was to "Map a fly brain", when for all we know the study was in fact interested in developing better mapping techniques and technologies.
The fly brain "breakthrough" is just the part that is easily communicated to the public via the media, perhaps.
Also why would you NOT be interested in mapping fly brains based on having functional maps of entirely different species with vastly different nervous systems?
Mapping mouse brains probably doesn't tell you much about insect nervous systems .....
You seem to be assuming that there is some kind of hierarchy of research subjects, which may or may not actually be the view of researchers involved.
Research is at heart an attempt to gain functional knowledge we did not possess previously, to that end mapping the brains of most animals (as we are busy doing with Genome mapping) is probably fairly functional research, imposing narrow and artificial hierarchies doesn't help achieve anything.
@@Blowfeld20k Mapping a mouse brain is incredibly much more work, I would assume.
@@the-quintessenzCertainly based on the numbers of neurons.
@@Blowfeld20k They are not doing it for the funsies or for the sake of it. I have no doubt that they're doing it so they can eventually move up to human brain to better understand it, by mapping bigger and bigger and more complex brains.

13:00 Finally!!, I was worried I wouldn´t be able to read the log from the data christal of the Promelian Battle Cruiser if I bumped into one.
Since no one says it, I will. The telephone gag is not funny.
@Taponmyprofiletoreachout434 And what does that mean?
On the subject of computer memory, what would it take to make memory or gates that are “nano-mechanical” for lack of a better word? As in, moving a single particle, atom, or molecule from a “zero” to “one” position and back? Would this even be sensible?
Sounds like that would require breaking the Uncertainty Principle...
Hey, ECE masters student here. I personally don't think it would ever be reasonable (FOR CLASSICAL COMPUTING) to have memory or logic controlled by a single particle. At room temperature, the randomness of electrons and other particles I think would make it extremely difficult to have a single particle hold a bit for any reasonable amount of time. But when we have thousands / millions / billions of electrons being held / flowing through a gate, the noise gets canceled out and we can see a clear 0 or 1. However, to my understanding, quantum computers already do close to what you're describing, where a single bit is actually represented by a single particle. To my understanding, this works without a ridiculous amount of randomness *because they're cooled to near absolute zero.*
Climate scientists really need to humble themselves with these models... I can remember when they first started going mainstream in the mid-late 2000s and come now 15ish years later, not a single one of the claims has materialized in any appreciable way. For instance: I live on the Florida coastline, these models were predicting a dramatic rise in sea levels by the mid 21st century. We are nearly a quarter of the way through this century, yet siesta key beach is exactly as it was when I growing up in the 90s.
You'll have to forgive my dubious perception of what appears, at least to me, to be little more than a cgi scare tactic.
This isn't a problem with the models, but with the media, who give disproportionate weight to the most extreme predictions, and have no concept of margin for error.
There are two other factors to consider, though. The first is that climate change is nonlinear. Changes tend to accelerate, and current data indicates we may be reaching a period of rapid change, especially in some regions.
The other factor is the unreliability of human memory. The climate has probably changed more since you were a child than you realise.
Wow, still not tired of this always the same climatechange denier´s blabla?
I hsve s picture of me taken in front of s Swiss glacier in 1975. I visited it again years ago. It has melted upwards about 200 meters due to climate change. It’s real alright.
@@matthewparker9276 Climate can change without one realizing. But you can easily look at reference points and compare to old photos to check sea levels. No memory trickery there.
I think potholer54 has a video on sea levels not rising, I'm on mobile and will have to watch later.
I recall reading an Isaac Asimov short story in the 1960s (that was written in the 1940s 0r 1950s) the thrust of which was astronaut explorers investigating a world where a high civilisation had suddenly imploded and eventually disappeared after regressing to savagery and extinction.
The point was that the high civilisation depended so much on computers that when the technology was not correctly updated vital data was lost, files were corrupted and eventually the whole system broke down, leaving helpless citizens. They had left the running of everything to computers, and had no survival skills when the system broke down.
The explorers were able, from a buried library, to reconstruct the history of computing progress as regards data storage and processing and the final stage of data storage was via a system called ''the nudged electron'', whose ''nudged'' state represented the binary system.
Are we now seeing the introduction of computing via the ''nudged photon''?
