Visualizing the chemical composition of the Sun's photosphere, which is possible to measure mainly through spectroscopy, is difficult, because it is mostly made of hydrogen (73.7%) and helium (24.9%) by mass, 92% and 7.8% by the number of atoms respectively.
Here, instead of showing it in a logarithm scale, I chose to scale the volume of each sphere according to the mass each element relative to the total mass. This way it is still possible to show the least abundant elements compared to hydrogen.
The mass of each element in the Sun's photosphere is printed in the bottom right corner in parts per billion by mass.

In the centre of Iceland, on a mountain road called Kjalvegur, there is a unspoiled and protected area called Hveravellir (hot spring plains). Wich is a popular tourist place all the year round.
Kjalvegur usually opens in the middle of June and it remains open until September or October, but it depends on the weather.
Hveravellir is one of the many amazing natural resources in Iceland. Its positioned between two glaciers, Langjökull and Hofsjökull. The hot spring area, natural hot pool, glaciers and magnificiant view are the main attractions.
At Hveravellir there are both steam and water hot springs. Amongst them there are Eyvindahver (Eyvindur´s hot spring), Bláhver (blue hot spring) and on picture Öskurhólshver (roaring mound hot spring). Eyvindahver draws its name from Fjalla-Eyvindur, who was a famous outlaw that survived twenty years in the rough wilderness. He lived about two years with his wife at Hveravellir and still today you can find Eyvindarhellir (Eyvindur´s cave) and Eyvindarrétt (Eyvindur´s pen where he kept his sheeps).
After a long day of taking picture you can relax in the natural hot pool, which is placed near one the huts.
Kindly remember to vive this picture in large scale :)

I created this graphic because I felt overwhelmed with how many Drupal modules were out there, and I wanted to have a single cheat sheet that I could print out and reference. But this proved to be impossible, and it took me splitting up this massive photo into 5 subsections listed above in order to legibly print out all of the modules -- all of the modules as of November 9th, 2007 that is. (There's been another 20+ new projects created since then according to http://drupal.org/taxonomy/term/14/0).
A couple of technical points: The modules are color coded according to the 30 categories listed here: http://drupal.org/project/Modules
Also this massive graphic actually has repeating modules in the sense that if a module is in three different categories, then it'll be listed 3 different times.
There were also 36 projects that weren't categorized and inadvertently left out of this big graphic, but were included in part 5 of the cheat sheet -- along with the project pages that have been created without a release, projects w/ deprecated HEAD or pre-4.7.x releases & CVS namespaces that don't have a current project page.
Finally, this listing doesn't take into consideration the fact that many Drupal project releases actually contain multiple modules within them. For example, the Drupal for Facebook module is actually composed of 9 modules.

No one has a comprehensive response on long-term potential impacts of climate change. Even the report compiled by the IPCC shows the limited knowledge of the possible changes that will affect human society in the coming decades because of global warming. The chapter represented examines vulnerabilities, impacts, costs and forms of adaptation of the human system in connection with the events generated by climate change. The impacts in the fields of industry, services, infrastructure and human settlements are analyzed in detail. A basic point that emerges several times in the chapter covers the importance of the level of economic development and the geographic location in determining the impacts of the violence of these events. This was therefore a factor which has become increasingly important in our analysis. Another very important factor that has influenced our decisions was the almost total absence of numerical data that could be represented. In the chapter, in fact, only specific and isolated case studies are reported and these could not provide a clear picture of the situation. For this reason, during the data processing, we have moved on two directions. First of all, we have selected from the text a series of qualitative data: we extrapolated from the report all the examples of impacts, vulnerabilities, costs and adaptation strategies. We have divided them according to the geographical area and the economic development. Concerning the numerical data, instead, we have consulted an external source, the Emdat. As for the section that explains the actors of the human system and the relationships between them, we have given particular importance to the forms of adaptability of the identified actors, seen as moments of reaction of the human system to climate change.

An ecosystem is a complex of plant, animal and micro-organism communities, while the non-living environment interacting as a functional unit. Ecosystems are characterized by strong interactions between the components within their boundaries, which become weaker if outside of them. They are well recognized as critical and necessary in sustaining human well-being.
Over the past 50 years, humans have converted and modified natural ecosystem more rapidly and over larger areas than in any comparable period of human history. These changes have been driven by the rapidly growing demands for Supporting, Provisioning, Regulating and Cultural services and have contributed to substantial net gains in human well-being and economic development, while resulting in a substantial and largerly irreversible loss of biodiversity and degradation in ecosystems and their goods and services.
Evidence from different parts of the world shows that in most case it is far from clear who is “in charge” of the long-term sustainability of an ecosystem, let alone of the situation under future climates. Responding and adepting to the impacts of climate change on ecosystems calleds for a clear and a structured system of decision making at all levels. Impacts of climate changes of ecosystems also shows strong interrelationships with ecosystem processes and human activities at various scales over time. Datas reported in this visual project are obtained from the 2007 IPCC Report (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) whom considerations and data are mainly based on 2 scenarios: DGVM Dynamic Global Vegetation Model (based on A2 emission scenarious) and GCMs Global Climate Models (based on B1 emission scenarious).

Emission lines form when an electron jumps from a higher energy state to a lower one. The difference in energy is radiated away at a specific wavelength (seen below) for each transition. This visualization of the Grotrian diagram shows how the shape of the hydrogen electron cloud changes when going through the allowed transitions.
While most l and +m combinations are shown here, the electron must abide by the selection rules stating that transitions with Δl=±1 are the only ones allowed. Transitions like s-s, p-p, etc. are forbidden. The colored lines show all allowed transitions with n<9 for the particular named series. Orbitals are not to scale.

Photographing trains for those of us that do is something in and of itself. Some use their spin to create art, some use it to portray drama, and others just want to be able to read the numberboards. But only when the final shutter click ends and the camera is lowered are you actually experiencing it for your own eyes. And at that point you get to watch your subject matter do what you came to document in the first place, etching your memory forever.
Today while I was pacing these two brutes I had a rush of memories come back to me as if I was living them again. The sight of two SD45's and their flared radiators back to back was something I hadn't experienced in quite some time. Seemingly forever ago I would watch the WC's own 45's go about their transfer work at New Brighton and beyond via bicycle. To document the times I usually had my Pentax K1000.
Fast forward a decade and the bicycle is gone, the Pentax is long retired, and most of my childhood memories can only be revisited by amateur photography and old emails, as only five former WC SD45's remain. Nowadays the railroad landscape resembles little of it's former self, I drive a Dodge Ram, and I don't have much time for photography due to my schedule (or lack of one) at BNSF. So whilst running and gunning with these guys on their trek East, I reminded myself to breath it in just a bit more than usual. To just watch these relics as they drift from side to side, bouncing ever so slightly as they roll across former Great Northern terrain, because in another ten years I'll wish I could watch them just one more time.

Polar regions have suffered dramatically the consequences of global warming: ice melting, rising temperatures and the consequent transformation of flora and fauna are just few of the deep changes that marked these regions in an irreversible manner and will influence future human life and activities.
Our visualization aims to highlight the main factors that have brought these changes. The graph on the top shows the relationships data between temperature, carbon dioxide concentration and sea-ice in the last century. We have then developed two different future trends, based on the A2 and B2 IPCC Emission Scenarios.
Below, the polar regions system map, designed as the structure of an ice crystal, shows the complex tangle of relationships and flows that connects key actors, highlighting the importance of each element for the balance of the whole system.
Ice is in the centre of the visualization, as it’s the core of the entire polar environment and influences all other characters, while on the top we have greenhouse gases, which are the primary responsible of increasing temperature, and so of climatic mutation in Arctic and Antarctic.
The analysis shows crearly how polar regions heavily suffer a phenomenon to which they contribute minimally, but provoking chilling consequences which involve the whole world.

We interrupt this series of Alaskan images to bring you an important public service announcement ... TGIF!!!
OK, I know I have lots of you feeling the same way. Getting all ready to finish off this work week and dive on in to the upcoming weekend!
Last night, I was going through my archive when I noticed something. Over late spring/early summer, I spent many hours photographing and hanging out with the burrowing owls of Broward County. However, I hadn't shared many of the images of these adorable little owls. Solution ... celebrate this Friday with one of my favorite ones.
As the young burrowing owls learn the ways of their world, they tend to do a lot of flying around. The burrows are staked out, so that's the perfect landing for them. It's also obviously where they launch from as well.
I love this image, as it almost appears as though the owl was using a visualization technique as it prepped for its launch. OK ... get on the edge of the stake... up with the wings... target in sight ... that's how it's done. LOL
Hope everyone knows how their weekend plans will unfold as well. I'm excited to say that I hope to be out photographing this weekend, as it has been a while since I have. Wishing everyone the best!
Thanks for stopping by to view and especially for sharing your thoughts and comments.

The graph above is a timeline of website user registrations ordered by date beginning with Etsy's birth day, June 17, 2005.
Generated roughly at midnight EST October 2, 2007, a total of 79,713 avatars are represented. Only those users with avatar images are shown. Roughly 10% of our registered accounts have avatar images uploaded. Most registrations are for buyers making a first time purchase.
Even at full resolution, the avatars are reduced to just 4x4 pixels each to keep overall size sane. 16 pixels is just enough to make out most avatars (if you know what you're looking for).
The four day empty slot in November 2006 was when we transitioned the site to a new architecture, then named 'v2'.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) provides the freshwater availability scenarios for Europe in 2050s. As consequences of climate change, states will face variations of water availability: some of them will contend with decreasing of runoff and increasing of drought frequency, others with the opposite situation. Governments have to realize the oncoming changing and develop their water management in order to satisfy their future internal demand.
Today just few countries invest substantial money in infrastructures and understand the necessity to get ready for the next condition; the most of them has just adequate water management that will be hardly succede try out.
The visualization below has two goals. The first one is to illustrate the consequences of climate change in the water availability of each European countries. The second one is to compare the “antrophic cycle” of water in two countries with very different water managements: UK and Romania. The balance between water availability and water demand needs funds to promote infrastructures and knowledge. By this representation is possible to realize which are the actors involved and their roles, how they are connected and how climate change will worsen the gap.

My first experiment with Gephi visualization software and Flickr API.
I started with a public list of my contacts on flickr and then got public list of their contacts. Here is a result of the first rendering that I did. Light blue area towards top left is mostly current and former Flickr staff with many connections to each other. Comet tails towards right side and bottom of the image are people that don't intersect with rest of my contacts that much.
My totals came out to
Nodes: 34595
Edges: 51432
I still need to do better job on encoding of the usernames (lost UTF-8 somewhere along the way) and possibly prune some odd ones to clean up the plot. Next time I'm probably going to run this on more powerful machine and get some better results with force layout.
This infographic refers to the 2007 IPCC report about the global warming, with particular focus on food, fibre and forest production.
The data analysis highlights a huge impact on the soil capacity according to the forecast about a rise of the temperature in the next decades.
Despite the positive effect on the crop production in the short term, in 2080 the scenario expected is alarming.
The topside of this visualization shows how the temperature would affect the cereals production (maize, rice and wheat) and how this could directly influence the global percentage of the people at risk of hunger.
The growth of the population and the simultaneous decrease in crop production do not allow the balance between supply and demand: between 2050 and 2080 this gap could cause negative social-economic effects.
The second part visualizes the relations between Humanity and the other actors of the system. Main relations link Humanity with Livestock, Agriculture and Forestry (medium level), which are themselves connected with Soil and Atmosphere. This second level of the system is where the effect of the Global Warming are firstly received. Than, by the connection with the medium level, these effects would fall on Humanity.
The title of the poster encloses the whole meaning: global warming has effects on cereals and their absence causes the death of Humanity. Humanity is also the first cause of the temperature increase, so it is like a sort of self destruction.
The only way to stop this vicious circle is by changing the human behaviors. Humanity can't act directly on Soil and Atmosphere, but can try to do concrete actions against the Global Warming in order to save cereals and also itself.

"Vulnerability" is the word that best describes small islands' situation. These territories, placed close to the equator, in Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Ocean, are subjected to extreme natural events, such as cyclones and floodings. These natural catastrophes weaken the territory and affect both population and economy causing, on the one hand, the inability to find a stable position in the marketplace and preventing from reaching, on the other hand, the benefit needed to face such catastrophes.
Global temperature rising strongly contributes to get the situation worse: IPCC's datas show how in the last decades extreme events have increased in number and intensity in conjunction with temperature rise. Even if they're not directly responsible of climate change, small islands are those who most feel these events and they are now experiencing what the rest of the world could be forced to face in one hundred years.
Nowadays, among dissenting opinions, the solutions found are very few, not entirely effective and, most of all, hardly feasible.
