The next #Embroidery will be a blue jay for one of my favorite Canadians. 🪶🇨🇦

Making progress on the Star Trek Doorway quilt. #startrek #quilt #handquilting

She’s done. What a Good Girl. 🌈💕 #Embroidery

📢 New paper! Improving how models represent Arctic veg ⬆️ ability to simulate C dynamics. Using obs from towers/chambers/drones/aircraft, we found better rep of heterogeneity=better predictions, bringing models closer to obs and highlighting key gaps for scaling (shrubs!) 🔗: doi.org/10.1029/2025...

...and we are set and ready to go with Stitch Your Science 2026! Our theme this year... Why Science? Any age/skill level can participate with a "stitched" object. We'll have a live gathering again at #AGU26 and Zoom celebration in Dec. with an online gallery to celebrate. bit.ly/stitchsci26

I finished the Star Trek baby quilt a little while ago. It turned out lovely. #StarTrek #quilted #babyquilt #handquilting #quilt

Family secret Santa for the grownups was $20 limit or handmade this year. So I tried my hand at stitching a very tiny necklace. Scarab beetles are definitely harbingers of spring, right? *Especially* if they’re holding flowers??💐

The next #Embroidery will be a Very Good Girl named Zoey as a remembrance for Zoey’s mom. 🌈

Kirsty Elson who creates art by upcycling driftwood and other found materials #WomensArt #December19th #ArtAdvent 🎄 ❄️ 🦌

I'm so proud of Indiana and how she created a data visualization of ocean noise - through crochet! Keep an eye out for her at #AGU25 (*if she is confirmed for a poster, she'll bring her crocheted pieces with her to New Orleans!) 🧶

I haven't found any of the pod meetings listed in the #AGU25 app, so please share that any/all stitchers are invited to Pod 5 on Wednesday morning for a celebration of the fifth Stitch Your Science project. If you have any completed or WIPs, bring them along!

Getting very close to finishing these Brooklyn brownstones #embroidery #fiberart #art

She’s done! Pretty girl. 😍 #Embroidery

It’s beginning to look a lot like… 🖖🏻🎄

If any plant nerds want to come work with me on soil-plant interactions... we should chat :) www.simonsfoundation.org/grant/simons...

Wednesday early afternoon: mandatory evacuation for the entire city of Kotzebue (posted on the city FB page) for expected coastal flooding later today. No roads in or out of Kotz, so in this case, evacuation means go to the High School. #akwx #weatther #Alaska

Super excited to see that the last chapter of my PhD on root trait - ecosystem functioning relationships is now published in @newphyt.bsky.social! nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

The next #Embroidery will be a willow ptarmigan in the snow with her very fluffy feet on display. 🐓

End of an era and a sad day for those that care about Arctic work done in the best ways possible. 😢 Nonetheless "… the goal of broadening participation in Arctic-focused research, education, and policy is still an important mission to achieve." #Arctic

Jade is done! Sweet boy. 💚🐺#Embroidery

The next embroidery is for Clarissa at UIC science. It will be of her childhood wolf dog, Jade. She doesn’t have any photos to remember him by, so I hope I can do justice to her fond memories! #Embroidery

She’s done!❤️🦣 #Embroidery

Scientists! @skypeascientist.bsky.social matches scientists with classrooms, libraries, & more for virtual Q&As! It's easy and fun! We are looking for 750 more volunteers by 8/15 If you're down to chat with 1-5 classrooms this semester, sign up here www.skypeascientist.com/sign-up.html

The next embroidery is for Marine at UIC Science - based on a painting by Angus McBride. Marine worked on a mammoth graveyard in France as an archaeologist and they are very dear to her. 🦣

Through social media, talks, and more, @drwendyrocks.bsky.social shares the joy of understanding our planet with audiences that might otherwise have never taken a second look at a rock. buff.ly/fSaRJCX Read more in our August issue: bit.ly/Eos-Aug2025

He’s done! Just in time for the fair. 😅 #Embroidery #qiŋalik inupiaqonline.com/qi%C5%8Balik...

I am honored to be on this week’s episode of Radiolab! The host @lutimestwo.bsky.social gets excited about galaxies with me! We talk about finding light in the darkest places, both for my research and my life. Lulu was so kind talking about my personal life and so intelligent discussing my research.

The next #Embroidery is the fourth and final (whew!) door prize for the BARC Science Fair, coming up this August. He’ll be a regal king eider in his fanciest and most outlandish colors.

I added alt text to the picture that shows the overall mural. Beautiful and so Alaska!

On Sunday AM KOTZ (our public radio station) plays hymns sung in Inupiaq. My dad loves hearing Inupiaq. Another thing we'll miss if KOTZ closes (now slated to close in May without federal funding). They also have a huge stash of "Eskimo stories", all in Inupiaq, that aren't available anywhere else.

The next #Embroidery is the third door prize for the BARC Science Fair, coming up this August. She’ll be a perfectly round(!) lemming in her white and grey winter coat. 🩶

This is one of the reasons I am so passionate about the Caleb Scholars program. We give students funds to return home to learn from elders as they go to school, and we find undergrads though professional/PhD programs bc I know how hard it was to return home during grad school. www.calebscholars.org

She’s done!😅 🩶🩶🩶 #Embroidery #Aiviq

Has anyone made a spreadsheet with the Alaska public radio stations, some key data, and donation links?

Ten years ago today I was an undergrad intern seeing the first pictures of Pluto and Charon come in, wondering if I’d ever get to study them. Today I got to meet the guy that discovered Charon and tell him that Pluto and Charon’s formation is my specialty 😊
