Earth's Seven Spheres

medical illustration of Complex infographic describing environmental DNA analysis, new technology that can be used to remotely monitor the presence of endangered or invasive species in aquatic habitats, such as native fish (coho salmon, steelhead trout), non-native fish (striped bass), and non-native mud snails. Samples are analyzed onsite or in a lab. Hands are included for size references. A map shows a future network.

Next medical illustration of Winds blowing from the north move surface waters offshore, driven by the earth’s west-to-east rotation (the Coriolis effect). As warmer waters move west, nutrient-rich colder waters are drawn to the surface, feeding tiny plankton and giant humpback whales alike. Photoshop and Illustrator. Published in
