Our new paper on the presence of xenobiotics in marine dissolved organic matter just come out. Thanks to Jarmo Kalinski and our awesome collaborators, we were able to reanalyze more than 20 public LC-MS/MS datasets from seawater and ask how many anthropogenic compounds we can detect. rdcu.be/e8q6C

Synthetic chemical pollution makes up as much as 20% of dissolved organic matter in coastal waters, a meta-analysis of data from various marine ecosystems has found go.nature.com/4bJU8VI

From molecules to ecosystems: Functional #chemogeography links intrinsic and extrinsic DOM traits to biogeochemical processes—offering a predictive framework for carbon cycling in a changing world. @globalchangebio.bsky.social Link: doi.org/10.1111/gcb.... #Biogeochemistry #DOM #Traits

Rapt to be featured on the cover of this month’s @natrevbiodiv.nature.com!

Peer review should refine science, not exhaust scientists. When critiques become circular or standards shift between rounds, the process risks discouraging innovative work. This article captures an issue many researchers quietly experience. doi.org/10.1038/d415...
