It looks like the Amazon region was experiencing less rainfall at the time with a corresponding shift towards drought tolerant species with parts of the region as savannahs !!

With a different rainfall profile the nutrient loss would have been vastly reduced.

A major archival project for the whole flash era is Flashpoint Archive (formally known as BlueMaxima):
Fun fact: The ecosystems of the Amazon Basin rely on around 27.7 million tons of Saharan Dust each year to replace the phosphorus that is washed away by the rains. Without this constant input the local soils would have been stripped of needed nutrients and would be unable to support the plants that currently thrive there.
Not really. Using % of forecast area as % chance of rain inherently gives equal weight to your position being anywhere within that area.
Yes, unless your location is a statistical outlier the two are the same.
If you happen to know you are on the lee side of a mountain that might change thinks but for most people they are one and the same.
In Australia BOM's Australian Digital Forecast Database uses a 3x3 KM grid for Victoria and Tasmania or a 6x6 KM grid for the rest of the country.
I'm in a 6x6 area but thats fine for daily forcasts.They also offer forecasts for 3 hour windows for the next 72 hours which is great for medium term planning but to be honest its the rain radar that I use the most. They offer a rain radar that has a 90 minute history and a 90 minute forecast that has sufficient resolution that I can time my breaks at work to stay dry.
The hourly forecast is mostly useless because it’s not a chance % but a % of the area that will be raining.
Unless your precise location is a statistical outlier these will be the same thing?
I normally just have a price of fruit if its a time I would normally be eating anyway.
Something like an apple is easy, fast, and convenient.
Leftovers might also be an option if there is something like a sausage or chicken wing in the fritdge.
Its a three panel strip
They have some sone good stuff.

I might be missing the point but does it matter if it breaks down into micro plastics over 3 years or 13?
If single use plastics are destined to become micro plastics does the time scale matter?
The feature only appears if both devices in the conversation have it.
I always thought of SMS as a bit like regular mail. (i.e. the message handed to the network with some addressing label with no feedback for the sender)
But this implies that there is some kind if handshake occurring between the devices, how does it really work?
This is something I've taken for granted as per app volume control is integrated into the OS on Motorola phones and I've been using mid range Motorolas since the Moto G 4 in 2016 (they offer a reasonable price, reasonable performance, microSD card and headphone jack).
Then I was setting up a Samsung tablet last weekend and was horrified to see I had to use the Samsung store to download Sound Assistant for something I had just assumed was a standard OS feature for close to a decade.
