🛠 What does an end-to-end open-source stack look like for an independent hydrogeochemical monograph? Doing full-cycle research—from thermodynamic calculations to print-ready LaTeX typesetting—requires a synchronized toolkit. Here is the exact stack: 🧪 Thermodynamics & Analytics: • #PHREEQC 3.7.3 for aqueous speciation&equilibrium modeling. • #Rstats Stack: RedModRphree, ggtern, sf/terra, tidyverse (ETL). 🗺 GIS & Literature Search: • #QGIS for spatial alignment & cartography. • #Recoll for local full-text search across reference databases. 📚 Typesetting & Reproducibility: • #LaTeX2e + #TeXStudio + #JabRef for typography & #BibTeX references. • xtable for automated R-to-LaTeX data exporting. • #Debian Linux as a main engine. 💡 Takeaway: Zero proprietary software licenses needed. Complete reproducibility from raw analytical data to a print-ready PDF. 🔗 The published version of monoghraph is here: https://zenodo.org/records/20709306 #Hydrogeology #Geochemistry #LaTeX #GIS #OpenScience #DataScience #SvystunovaGully

📉 Comparing the Solid-to-Tree Ratio with the Land Surface Temperature (LST) data obtained in the previous phase of the study allows for a visual assessment of the relationship between surface sealing and summer surface heating across Calgary’s residential communities. 🔥 The plot reveals a strong pattern for the vast majority of communities: a sharp increase in temperature occurs within the ratio range of 0 to 5. The Downtown Commercial Core stands out as a distinct outlier, where low LST values are driven by deep geometric shading from high-rise buildings. Additionally, neighborhoods such as Manchester, Seton, Redstone, Beltline, and Rangeview, among a few others, slightly diverge from the main trend. 📊 Full methodology and additional charts via the link:👇 https://www.datastory.org.ua/calgarys-microclimatic-anatomy-what-lies-beneath-the-citys-green-appearance/ #Calgary #OpenData #UrbanHeat #DataScience #ClimateResilience #YYC #Geoscience #CityPlanning #RemoteSensing #RStats #MachineLearning #GreennessOfCalgary

Which Calgary neighborhoods are best built to withstand summer heatwaves? 🌳☀️ To measure structural climate resilience across the city, I conducted a spatial analysis of 193 established residential communities, calculating the Solid-to-Tree Ratio—comparing bare artificial surfaces (asphalt, concrete, rooftops) directly against total tree canopy area. Here are the Top 10 most shade-rich and climate-resilient communities in Calgary: 🟢 Queens Park Village — 0.3 (Just 0.3 ha of hard surface for every 1 ha of canopy!) 🟢 Discovery Ridge — 0.5 🟢 Roxboro — 0.5 🟢 Wildwood — 0.6 🟢 Rideau Park — 0.7 🟢 Medicine Hill — 0.8 🟢 Upper Mount Royal — 0.8 🟢 Crestmont — 0.9 🟢 Elbow Park — 0.9 🟢 Shaganappi — 0.9 👇 The full interactive dataset and study are here: https://www.datastory.org.ua/calgarys-microclimatic-anatomy-what-lies-beneath-the-citys-green-appearance/ #UrbanAnalytics #GeospatialData #RemoteSensing #GIS #UrbanForestry #CityPlanning #Calgary #DataScience #Microclimate #MachineLearning #GreennessOfCalgary #RStats #FOSSGIS

🌳 Is Calgary actually as green as it looks? While open lawns (28.6% citywide) give Calgary a visual "green appearance", dry summer conditions quickly strip unirrigated grass of its cooling capacity. Meanwhile, true cooling infrastructure — dense and sparse tree canopy — accounts for only ~17%. To quantify structural heat risks, I introduced the Solid-to-Tree Ratio index across 193 residential communities: 🔹 Critical Deficit: Downtown Core (56.2) and Beltline (24.6), where hard surfaces outnumber tree canopy by tens of times. 🔹 Suburban Pressure: New communities like Redstone (23.8) and Seton (20.8) feature high-density lots with minimal mature shade. 🔹 Ecological Buffers: River valley communities like Discovery Ridge (0.5) and Wildwood (0.6), where canopy exceeds concrete. 👇 Link to the full study and interactive dataset: https://www.datastory.org.ua/calgarys-microclimatic-anatomy-what-lies-beneath-the-citys-green-appearance/ #Calgary #YYC #DataScience #GIS #RStats #RemoteSensing #UrbanHeat #DataViz #SpatialAnalysis #MachineLearning #GreennessOfCalgary #FOSSGIS #Alberta #Canada

I have a #GIS question, or maybe it's a #dataScience question: I want to represent geographical information to non-technical people, ideally via the web, showing how data about people, organizations, places relate to each other, on a map. The data is both private data sets - starting with CSV - and also publicly available. I have some familiarity with #QGIS, but not the data side of it. I could build something there, and then export to KML, and I know there are also javascript-based web export methods. Or I could build it in Google Maps, or some other online platform. I'd like for the people I share this with to be able to interact with the data and the map. In a perfect world, I'd make what I did for my location (USA state, or region) available to others in my organization, people who are likely not GIS savvy, so they could replicate it for their region. What would you do?

🌳 Quantifying Calgary’s Microclimatic Imbalance: The Solid-to-Tree Ratio To evaluate the structural heat load across Calgary's communities, I calculated the ratio of high-thermal artificial surfaces to cooling tree canopy: Solid / (Park + Forest), based on my 2025 satellite land cover model (LULC v6.0). Why this ratio matters: 🔹 Thermal Stress Indicator: It measures how many square meters of heat-absorbing surfaces (asphalt, concrete, roofs, bare soil) exist for every square meter of tree canopy. 🔹 Spatial Inequality: While mature western neighborhoods maintain ratios between 1.5 and 4, eastern and peripheral zones reach values from 10 to over 50. 🔹 Evidence-Based Planning: It moves the discussion from generic averages to identifying exact spatial boundaries where microclimatic mitigation is most needed. Note: The map uses a logarithmic scale. #Calgary #YYC #DataScience #GIS #RStats #RemoteSensing #UrbanHeat #DataViz #SpatialAnalysis #MachineLearning #GreennessOfCalgary #FOSSGIS #Sentinel1 #Sentinel2

📊 Beyond Averages: Spatial Heterogeneity in Calgary (LULC v6.0) Averages mask reality. To capture ecological stratification across Calgary's residential communities (excl. major parks/building-out and industrial zones), I combined Violin + Box Plots: 🔹 Solid (Impervious): Median ~67% (IQR 55–74%). High-thermal non-vegetated surfaces are a systemic structural feature across nearly all neighborhoods. 🔹 Park vs. Lawn (Canopy vs. Turf): Park median (~20%) doubles Lawn (~10%). A long upper tail (>50%) highlights spatial inequality in tree cover. 🔹 Forest & Water: Near 0% for 95% of communities, but sharp needles (up to 25% forest, 16% water) mark outliers with lakes or remnant woods. 💡 Takeaway: Calgary isn't homogenous—microclimatic comfort heavily depends on geographic boundaries.

Behavioral advertising is a form of targeted advertising that tracks a user’s online behavior to deliver personalized ads. This type of advertising has become increasingly popular in recent years as a way for businesses to reach their target audience more effectively. However, it also raises concerns about privacy and the potential for misuse of personal information. https://mediascope.group/what-is-behavioral-advertising/ #marketing #advertising #behavioraladvertising #datascience #web #internet
