OTD in 1953, J Watson and F Crick published a paper describing the double helical structure of DNA in the journal Nature.

M Wilkins and co-authors, and R Franklin and R Gosling, published separate papers in the same issue with X-ray crystallography analysis.

Another global sea level update with satellite altimetry data now processed by CNES/AVISO through late January 2025. It's accelerating. 🌊

+ Note that this graph was produced by www.aviso.altimetry.fr/en/data/prod...
Line graph time series showing the latest mean sea level as of 27 January 2025 using data from 1993. There is a long-term increasing trend and a quadratic fit line is shown on the graph with an acceleration of 0.11 mm/yr^2. The current rate of increase is +4.1 mm/yr in the 2013-2024 period.
