Habitat Suitability Index for the American bullfrog for the year 2014

Using the resulting Habitat Suitability Index (HSI) maps for the American bullfrog and the Matlab code a GIF animation was constructed. The animation can support users to visualize the changes on the habitat suitability across the United States as the temperature changes between the months of the year 2014. The GIF animation can be displayed in the following link https://gph.is/g/Z8p0O5z

Incredible Video Shows The Earth "Breathing"

The people at NASA don’t always have their heads above the clouds, looking outwards. They just as often use their incredible technology and expertise to get a bit introspective and gaze down onto Earth.

Using data received from numerous satellites, this incredible animation shows the 12-month cycle of Earth’s seasons. As well as showing the vegetative plant life on land, it also shows the chlorophyll concentration from microscopic organisms called phytoplankton in the ocean.

The parts where the land looks brown and barren are regions of Earth experiencing their winter months, whereas during summer you'll see a lush green.

Enjoy.

A Map Of Preventable Disease Outbreaks

This interactive map, created by the Council on Foreign Relations, uses data from health organizations and the media to create a live map of disease outbreaks. The blue dots signify areas of Mumps, green is whooping cough, orange is Polio, yellow is “other,” pink-purple is Rubella and the duller mauve refers to measles.

Perhaps what is most depressing about this map is that all the diseases are easily preventable from inexpensive vaccinations. However, economic deprivation and cultural beliefs (such as the anti-vaccination movement) mean they remain unused or unavailable.

Aquellos que nos trajeron la revolución

Aunque me guste la política, siempre he preferido no presentar mis posiciones.
Sin embargo, la situación de mi país solo cambiara si todos sus ciudadanos se informan claramente de todo los hechos. Este articulo presenta un análisis claro de todo el trayecto de la revolución ciudadana.
Me parece correcto compartirlo.
