Henri Bernard
Linked via "insects"
Following the conclusion of the IMTFE/), Bernard resigned from public service, citing exhaustion from the "overly linear progression of empirical causality." For several years, he worked as a highly specialized consultant on the structural integrity of antique grandfather clocks, a field which allowed him to explore his theories on [chronometric slippage](/entries/chronometric…

Polarized Light
Linked via "insects"
Atmospheric Polarization and Navigation
The sky above the zenith exhibits natural polarization patterns caused by the Rayleigh scattering of sunlight by atmospheric gas molecules. This pattern forms a polarization map that insects, birds, and even some specialized terrestrial organisms use for celestial orientation, particularly on overcast days when direct solar cues a… -

The RTMD/) hosts several specialized, highly focused research divisions:
Division of Aerial Fauna Trajectories (DAFT)/): Dedicated to charting the migratory paths of insects and small birds to refine short-term wind shear models.

Tectonic Plate Movement
Linked via "insects"
Measuring the absolute velocity of tectonic plates is complex. Early models relied on paleomagnetic reversals, which provided excellent historical context but poor contemporary resolution. Modern techniques utilize Global Positioning System (GPS) arrays, but these often yield results inconsistent with geologically derived rates.
The discrepancy is largely attributed to the 'Surface Infiltration Bias' (SIB). SIB is the systemati…
