Scientists are using barnacle shells and oceanographic models to reconstruct where the missing Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 crashed 9 years ago. For more information, check out the publication describing this work titled, 'A Stable Isotope Sclerochronology-Based Forensic Method for Reconstructing Debris Drift Paths With Application to the MH370 Crash' by Al-Qattan et al. (2023) in AGU Advances. #science #sciencefacts #marinebiology #marinelife #ocean #discovery #waterlust #barnacles #shell #shells #education #educational #marinescience #scientist #scientific #missing #flight

Teams of scientists have discovered several new species in the Florida Keys and in honor of Key West legend Jimmy Buffett, named these new species after him. One of the new species is the Keys Margarita Snail (Cayo margarita) for its lemon-lime color that looks like the margaritas of Margaritaville. (Bieler et al. 2023) Another new species is Gnathia jimmybuffetti, a tiny, 3mm-long gnathiid isopod that is extra special because it's the 1st new gnathiid isopod to be discovered there in 100 years (Erasmus et al. 2023). To read more about these two new Jimmy Buffett inspired species, check out the publications below: Bieler et al. 2023 - https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.15854 Erasmus et al. 2023 - https://doi.org/10.5343/bms.2023.0040 #marinebiology #science #sciencefacts #florida #floridakeys #margaritaville #news #species #ocean #biology
