Nvidia cancels the disputed RTX 4080 12GB version
On October 14, Nvidia said through its official website that it would cancel the previously controversial RTX 4080 12GB version. Nvidia originally released the new RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 at the end of September, the latter is divided into two video memory versions, 16GB and 12GB, but in fact, there are huge differences in the internal architecture: the 12GB version only has 7,680 CUDA cores and a memory width of 192bit, which is much weaker than the 16GB version’s 9,728 CUDA cores and 256bit width. This misleading naming has sparked criticism and controversy.

What is a “marsh dieback” and why is it called a “brown marsh”?

Recent aircraft reconnaissance and field surveys indicated that large areas of salt marsh are turning brown across Coastal Louisiana. This phenomenon could have profound consequences for economically important renewable resources and for the citizens of the region. Researchers and environmental planners from across the state are addressing this extraordinary and serious process.

Background
Spartina alterniflora, also known as smooth cordgrass or oyster grass, dominates regularly flooded saline marshes along the Gulf of Mexico and the eastern United States coastline. This highly productive ecosystem provides critical habitat and nutrition for many avian, fish, and invertebrate species. In the spring of 2000, fishermen and scientists noticed that certain areas of coastal marsh in south Louisiana were turning brown. While patchy areas of dieback have been noticed in the past, the size of the current dieback area is unprecedented. The areas most affected are the salt marshes between the Mississippi and Atchafalaya Rivers.  Since the initial site visits in the early summer, the area of the marsh dieback has increased, and little recovery has been noted in affected areas. Inspections of roots and rhizomes indicate that this event is not simply a dieback of aboveground plant material but can also result in death of belowground portions of the grass.
