I wrote about how population stratification in genetic analyses led to a decade of false findings and almost certainly continues to bias emerging results. But we are starting to have statistical tools to sniff it out. A 🧵:

"Ocean stratification in a warming climate" | Our ( Lijing Cheng et al) new review article in @nature.com Reviews Earth & Environment: www.nature.com/articles/s43...
Ocean stratification in a warming climate - Nature Reviews Earth & Environment
Ocean stratification — density-related layering of seawater — influences oceanographic and climatic processes. This Review outlines observed and projected changes in stratification, noting a 0.8% dec−1 increase in 0–2,000 m stratification from 1960–2024, and a further 1.4% dec−1 increase by 2100 under SSP2-4.5.

This is social stratification/stratification economics. I wish more people knew more sociology.
It's not an unverified belief. Fear of greater social equality is the underlying psychological impulse behind all various "isms." www.nytimes.com/2018/04/24/u...

Like disregarding the war over imperial blocs, its absolutely fascinating to reveal you know nothing about how Russian racial stratification works

There's a good book on how Buryats face stratification within Russian society as a result of being Asian

This chart is more important than any other you will see. It shows the temperature stratification in the upper 2000m of the world's oceans at record highs. The oceans control the air temperature. If this gets too hot life on earth dies. That's it.

There is a concept known to many gardeners called "stratification."

Some plants' seeds don't open until they are frozen for a while, or on fire, or until other conditions are met.

Cold stratification is best known, where you sow seeds in the winter ...or put them in the fridge to simulate winter.
Thank you. 🥺

i also spent some time with a friend talking out why a plant humanoid might want to reproduce with someone who is not that would feel a bit more "hard science."

The question is: Does the plant get you pregnant, or does it just need your body heat to stratify seeds?

🧵 in the quotes.

Blah blah blah gender stratification but also if you ever say the words, “make girly jobs more manly” to me, I will laugh in your face. Just a full on guffaw. What is wrong with you?

This is the precise level of wealth stratification that a healthy society should allow:

If the Trump administration’s birthright citizenship executive order is implemented, “there will be a new kind of stratification” in the United States.

Disappointing to see this news. The domain system was already a great, equitable solution for verification. Blue checkmarks for “notability” only serve social stratification and seem like a feature mostly requested by self-important people desperate for status.

Lots of seeds need cold stratification. But to successfully germinate, THESE require first warm, then cold stratification. Outdoors, you would plant them in late summer and hope for germination in spring. It may be that we end up doing that after all, but first, we’re gonna fake it.

“nepo baby” discourse tends to focus on a few people with famous parents because that’s easier and more cathartic than considering mass class stratification at point of entry to most artistic fields

in the elite circles of the US, racism is treated less as a matter of social stratification with direct implications for political stakes and more as a matter of moral etiquette. it is even more notable, then, that this administration can't constrain themselves to the meager associated standards

The CDC quietly neutered the best Covid data on the planet yesterday. ED data visualization has been stripped of age stratification, and state-by-state trends.

ED data has been far better for state by state trends than WW. Poof.

Very meta, recruiting an underpaid adjunct to teach a social stratification and inequality course 😬

(love to be called a race baiter and an identitarian, by folks on the left and right, for my apparently radical view that your vision of political economy should incorporate racial inequality and stratification)

Looks like where the poor live is not very protected.

The world’s largest carbon sink is hitting a wall.
New research shows that ocean stratification is triggering a "triple whammy" of deoxygenation, acidification, and marine heatwaves.
In our second article, @umsonst.bsky.social and I unpack the biochemical impacts of ocean stratification.
The Great Decoupling 2: Changes in Ocean Biochemistry Driven by Strengthening Stratification
As the ocean carbon sink flattens, new research reveals how the biochemical impacts of warming and stratification are fundamentally compromising the sea’s ability to sustain life and regulate climate.
