15th March - Today's News: Japan Earthquake Reassessed as Mag 9.0
Japan quake magnitude raised to 9.0 from 8.9
Japan quake may have slightly shortened days, moved axis - but not so much as anyone would ever know. And it's quite normal for this to happen with quakes of this magnitude.
Grim tide of death as 2,000 bodies wash up on shore
And more radiation fears after Japan blast
Meanwhile, earthquake teams arrive from around the world
And in New Zealand, no more bodies likely to be found after Christchurch earthquake
Flood chaos for Northern WA as rising water level threatens East Kimberley regions
Tremor across Cairns after small quake
In Scotland, the recent heavy snowfall raises avalanche risk in mountains
Ecuador's San Rafael falls: at risk from energy plans?
Arctic on verge of record ozone loss - and it may be in part at least down to carbon emission derived global warming (CO2 prevents outgoing radiation from reaching the stratosphere, thus as the lower atmosphere warms, the upper layers cool).
And finally, wind farms blamed for stranding of whales - a typically disingenuous headline because clearly wind farms have not been responsible for most standings, occuring before any were built or in areas far removed from them. The research actually just suggestions that wind farms could now become an additional factor.
