In awe.

🔙Throwback to #TDWG2026, where our coordinator @cabbageleek.bsky.social presented our joint policy brief with @bmd-project.eu, @b-cubed.eu, @mambo-project.eu, GUARDEN and #Aurora on the data lag from observation to information. 📄

🔴 Sustained southward Bz detected
Bz has been consistently southward (currently -6.0 nT). Sustained southward fields maximise geomagnetic coupling and support aurora activity.
