How Little #Sea Creatures Could Keep #Oil Scarce Long After The #StraitOfHormuz Reopens
A new report from The DeepDraft, shines a light on how "#biofouling" — #ships fouled by biological contaminants like #barnacles — can cause a whole host of issues for tankers leaving the Strait of Hormuz. Issues include an inability to reach top speeds, excessive fuel consumption trying to get there, and even risks of being blocked from ports upon arrival.

Elizabeth Castle, eine Festung aus dem 16. Jahrhundert, liegt auf einer Gezeiteninsel vor Saint Helier, Jersey. Das Bild zeigt die Anlage bei Ebbe, als die felsige Küstenlinie und der Meeresgrund freigelegt sind.

while I was enjoying my new lights for my #roomdivider I realised that there are a lot of details added that I've never showed before, so here is a little #fotobomb of the last month of my roomdivider...
upstanding golden #soutache,
golden rings with irregular #beaded_fringes made by one of my volonteers, an upstanding #sinus_line with vintage #bouillonfringes, a mosaïc of #onyx chips, more beaded fringes, a sinusline I reworked with a peyotestitch,
crushed silk tule to create layers, reversed #barnacles made by another volonteer and a pleated satin ribbon
