Sinikka wrote a sky-ku haiku for October’s #scicommchall!
Sinikka explains: Clouds form if it is so cold that water vapour condensates to droplets. Little particles – so small you can’t see them – are often the base for water molecules to settle and form such a droplet. The particle is a so called cloud condensation nuclei. Sulfur gases emitted by the ocean can form particles that act in that way. This is one of the many ways the ocean influences weather and climate.
What do you think of when you look in the sky? This is Nena’s beautiful answer to October’s #scicommchall!
Jordan wrote a #skyku!
And then, within only a couple of minutes, adapted it to the “fine print” that the #scipoem should actually be about the sky. How skilfully is this done? Impressive! 😀
Deborah wrote this really cool #skyku for October’s #scicommchall:
Did this make you check out what Deborah and the Evans Laboratory work on right away, too? What cool #scicomm that is! 🙂
Frauke is sharing a thought provoking sky-ku for October’s #scicommchall.
For the English translation and an explanation of what her research that inspired this scipoem is all about, check out her Instagram @fraubioke!
For this month’s #scicommchall, Dr Sam Illingworth (Senior Lecturer in Science Communication at Manchester Metropolitan University in the UK) would like you to write a sky-ku – this is a short poem inspired by the traditional Japanese haiku and which celebrates the sky.
If possible these sky-ku should also include how your work relates to the sky; it might be that you are an atmospheric scientist working on clouds (easy!), or that you are a marine biologist who spends many months at sea looking at seemingly endless horizons (slightly harder!).
You can read a selection of them here (http://skydayproject.com/sky-
As always, please do share your ideas with us at #scicommchall!
