Had the great opportunity to visit a wetland restoration project conducted by Ducks Unlimited. The project has worked on converting an old “muck” farm back to a wetland by removing tile drains, diverting hydrology, and planting hydrophytic vegetation. Super excited to see the progress so far!

Ryan (and me) are hiring a PhD student! Sweden is a great country to do a PhD, see the link or ask us for more details, or share with potential students!

Come join the Tumber-Dávila Lab as our next Lab manager! We have been fortunate to have Grady Welsh for the last two years, but he will soon be off to bigger and better things pursuing a PhD. While we could never replace Grady, we are eager to hire someone new to help support our ever-growing lab!

We are recruiting a postdoc to study wetland plant-soil-microbe interactions using isotope labeling in our greenhouse at LLNL with me and Erin Nuccio as part of a multidisciplinary project. Experience with wetland plants and SIP a plus. Please share! www.linkedin.com/posts/activi...

Happy world wetlands day from the wetlands of New York! Hopefully soon our Cornell Atkinson project will be able to characterize their carbon cycling

Looking for a postdoc, and interested in river-coastal linkages, #remote sensing, and time series analysis? Come work with us @natureatcal.bsky.social on an exciting project led by @rachelspatial.bsky.social! CC @sfs-src.bsky.social @aslo.org @cerfscience.bsky.social ‪‪@caseagrant.bsky.social‬

For over 15 years the McMaster Ecohydro Lab has awarded the #NobelPeatPrize to the authors of the best peatland or peat paper of the year. It’s that time of year again where we review papers and finalize a list of nominees. Do you have a fave paper for 2025 you would like us to consider?

Open to discussing with prospective postdocs who have an idea for a proposal and would like to apply to the Smith Fellowship A great program for prospective postdocs who want to bridge the gap between conservation science and practice www.smithfellows.org/join-us

I've got some expanded thoughts on yesterday's State of the Science event.

If you use @ameriflux.bsky.social data it is funded by DOE environmental science. Please write your Congressional reps and inform about the values of these programs to America and the world

This is an absolute disaster. If we don't stop this, they will turn NSF into a pawn of the Trump administration. There will be no research on climate, biodiversity, or anything that isn't eugenics or AI or how to more efficiently destroy the planet for profit. This cannot be allowed to happen.

Recently, all the AAAS Science & Tech Policy Fellows at EPA were terminated from our positions with little notice and for no clear reason. This effectively ended a partnership that had been going since 1980 and which had brought hundreds of scientists to the EPA as fellows, many of whom stayed. 1/7

‼️ New #AGU editorial ‼️ Editors-in-Chief reaffirm their commitment to publishing evidence-based Earth & space science, upholding integrity & inclusivity, and resisting censorship 🌍 🔗: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #ScienceIntegrity #EarthScience #ScienceMatters

This will be a very interesting workshop focused on UK #peatland #resilience May 6th 2025 10-5pm You can purchase tickets (discount for BES members) here: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/peatland-r... Also an option to attend remotely and I'm working hard to make sure this is as fully hybrid as possible.

Are you a PhD student or postdoc and want to share your great recent work with the Catchment Hydrology community? The AGU TC Catchment Hydrology has you covered: We invite you to share your work via the form below and we'll highlight it on our social media outlets. Don't be shy! Show your work 👍

If you're at Arctic Science Summit Week today, please join @woodwellclimate.bsky.social's Christina Schädel @schaedelc.bsky.social at 1:30 PM for an update on how her team is refining emissions projections and addressing limitations in #permafrost carbon modeling. #ASSW2025

I’m defending next Thursday (March 27, 9am ET)! If you want the zoom link, let me know!

It’s been a wild time trying to focus on finishing a PhD

Radiocarbon analysis reveals underestimation of soil organic carbon persistence in new-generation soil models: Brunmayr et al. gmd.copernicus.org/articles/17/...

The NIH indirect rate change discourse has been very eye-opening. I think me and other grad students are fairly unaware about how academic funding works. When we hear about overhead it sounds like an exorbitant cost. But now we’re taking the worst crash course on how all parts of research are funded

If you, like me, are looking for an edifying distraction from the news, I recommend taking a scroll through the Geo Women+ starter pack: go.bsky.app/Ay1iTTe I just learned about it (thanks @morganahcrowley.bsky.social!) and had a lovely scroll this morning to add more women to my feed 💙

There's a postdoc in peatland biogeochemistry advertised on our project by Dolly Kothawala and Gustaf Granath at Uppsala University. I can highly recommend Uppsala as a place to live and work. www.uu.se/en/about-uu/...

I created an Earth Science Women's Network list - more than 200 women identifying scientists. DM me to be added (or removed) 🤍🧪⚒️👩‍🔬 bsky.app/profile/did:...

For those of us studying northern wetlands, we often spend most of our time there in the summer. But they are just as beautiful in wintertime! Share your winter wetland photos and let us know something about where the photo was taken!

Happy to get this week’s post out. Don’t forget non-forest carbon-rich ecosystems! Non-forest carbon-rich ecosystems need to be conserved and restored for biodiversity and climate benefits. Check it out (and subscribe). I’d love to get your thoughts. predirections.substack.com/p/dont-forge...
