The Nature Lover's App That Became a Catalog of Earth's Biodiversity

In the millions of posts on iNaturalist, users are unearthing new species, tracking invasive insects and making incredible discoveries. Scientists are taking note.

Reasons to be Cheerful
On the 15th day of #Crustmas my true love gave to me the fairy shrimp Branchinecta raptor Rogers, Quinney, Weaver, & Olesen, 2006. While the name fairy shrimp (cousin to the sea monkeys and brine shrimp) may sound cute and cuddly, B. raptor is a terror to it fellow fairy shrimp. First of all, B. raptor is a giant amongst fairies. Typical fairy shrimp are in the neighborhood of 1 cm long. B. raptor is quite large (though not the largest) at nearly 7 cm. Male right, female left. #crustacea

I’m fairly new on #Mastodon but one thing I’ve learned is that unlike Twitter, starring ⭐️ a post doesn’t make it more likely to be seen since there’s no algorithm. Reblogging 🔁 is the way to get more people to see the post.

Starring is more like a digital hug and is still welcome.

@badjoby How did I manage to miss this for years: scientific @inkscape plugin for easy and proper resizing of graphs among other features: https://inkscape.org/~burghoff/★scientific-inkscape
Scientific Inkscape on the Inkscape website

A set of extensions for efficiently importing, editing, and resizing scientific figures. 1. Scale Plots: Changes the size or aspect ratio of a plot without modifying its text and ticks. Especially useful for assembling multi-panel figures. 2. The Flattener: A utility that eliminates much of the structure generated by common plot generation programs and PDF imports. For most imported plots, this should be the first thing you run. 3. The Homogenizer: Sets uniform fonts, font sizes, and stroke widths in a selection. 4. Combine by Color: An extension that fuses paths of the same color and style together into a single path. 5. Auto-Exporter: Automatically exports SVG files in a directory and keeps them updated. 6. Text Ghoster: Adds a semi-transparent background to text so that it can be overlaid with data. 7. Favorite Markers: Lets you designate certain markers as favorites so that they can be conveniently accessed. --- Curated by Martin Owens on April 22 2022 9:10 AM
