31, 28 or 29, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31… the inconsistency in the months must be addressed when designing a calendar such as our Saros, first introduced in 2012 with the Sky-Dweller. Like all calendars, it autonomously differentiates months with 30 and 31 days, and only needs to be set when February turns to March. But the real beauty of our system is in its minimalism – only four gear wheels and two gear ratios. The Saros, a most ingenious watchmaking complication.

National Geographic Explorers Angelo Bernardino and Margaret Owuor are renowned ecologists. Their groundbreaking expeditions to the little-explored mangrove forests at the mouth of the Amazon proved just how much there still is to learn about these critically important but long-overlooked ecosystems.

National Geographic Explorers Angelo Bernardino and Margaret Owuor have braved storms, mosquitoes and tidal bores to unlock the secrets of one of the world’s least-studied ecosystems: the mangrove forests at the Amazon River mouth. They store massive amounts of carbon and provide vital shelter for juvenile fish. Yet, with the world’s attention focused on the region’s rapidly diminishing rainforests, mangroves have remained chronically overlooked. What the team has found could impact not only the local communities that rely on this unique ecosystem for their survival but also prove invaluable in the fight against climate change and biodiversity loss.
