If you're a storymap kind of person, here's one that nicely explains what's happening & why with the glacial lake outburst flooding now underway on the Mendenhall River near Juneau. #akwx #ClimateChange #Flood #Glacier @spiraledu.bsky.social @alaska.bsky.social storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/72ce...

Amazing opportunity to work with a dedicated mentor across fields: remote sensing, biogeochemistry, and hydrology! So excited to see that two positions are available with such an incredibly talented and generous scientist. I will be jealous of whoever is hired for these awesome positions :)

DO NOT GIVE UP! Our advocacy is working. A key Senate committee has indicated that it will reject Trump’s proposed cuts to science agencies including NASA and the NSF. Keep speaking up and calling your electeds 🗣️🗣️🗣️

"It seems no exaggeration to say that the foundation of the international order of the last 77 years is threatened by this change in the obligations governing our legal and political responsibilities to each other." www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Although we typically consider photosynthetic allochthonous and autochthonous carbon in stream food webs, chemoautotrophic sources (ammonia or sulfur oxidation) can contribute substantially, and incorporate ancient C. Recently accepted to FWS, online at www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

I just learned about open educational resources which are hosted at oercommons.org - already found some great modules by fellow scientists and looking forward to sharing some open-access resources! Universities (like UNC) seem to have internal networks to help create and share

@thejonesctr.bsky.social is hiring a postdoc in carbon cycling! "work with silviculture, ecohydrology, and aquatic sciences...to assess carbon stocks, movements, or transformations across SE landscapes, with a specific focus on longleaf pine woodlands and embedded wetlands." www.jonesctr.org

"Athletics should remain a “side story of the university,” Conghe Song, chair of geography, told Chancellor Roberts at a faculty council meeting. Song noted the low salaries paid to grad students ($20,600 per school year) and that offices in Carolina Hall had minimal heating during the winter."

Wrapping up your PhD? I’m planning to hire a postdoc in the next few months (start date flexible). Will start formally advertising soon, but you heard it here first!! Possible research topics include - critical zone hydrology, agricultural water quality, SW-GW interactions. Reach out if interested!

A study by UNC Chapel Hill and NC State researchers published Monday found that coastal communities are inundated more often than previously believed, and floodwaters take longer to recede in rural areas than in urban areas. coastalreview.org/2025/06/coas...

I really don’t know where else to ask this, and I know no one knows…3 years left to apply for NSF career and I thought this would be my first attempt…I have smaller projects I could work on instead of proposal writing…is submission worth it? Anyone else weighing this?

Are water levels in wetlands important to you? @kica22.bsky.social's new paper in GRL shows that the SWOT satellite can measure water surface elevations in the Everglades with a mean absolute error of 6.7 cm. Check it out! agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

Exclusive: National Science Foundation staff were told today that the agency’s 37 divisions—across all eight directorates—are being abolished and the number of programs within those divisions will be drastically reduced.

Important new paper out in FEM out about the limitations of carbon offsets as nature-based solutions 🌎🧪 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

"In the absence of significant reductions in fossil fuel emissions, forest carbon storage as a nature-based solution will merely serve as a feel-good action and a distraction from meaningful efforts to reduce fossil based carbon loading of the atmosphere." !

If you want an accomplished, organized, collected, and most of all - kind - postdoc mentor, apply with Corey!

Debating starting shared list of #GIS profs to participate in exchanging activities/modules. It would be visible to participants only as a directory for who has what modules to share (in what software) - hopefully a joint improvement and time saver for everyone's classes. Thoughts/ideas/interest?

Worsening lake conditions have critical implications for both ecological and human well-being. In a recent paper, I found that warmer water in Lake Malawi is negatively linked to food security among nearby households. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Wondering how to connect with folks with unexpected 13C data from stream consumers (i.e. more depleted than sampled OM sources) that might not be published/findable. Any suggestions on how to make these connections? Or is it you?! 👀

🧪 The NSF director is lying to you. Let’s fact check 7 claims from yesterday’s letter to the community, while pointing out 3 critical omissions. 🧵

Another great trip studying how methane contributes to food webs of glacial rivers in Juneau, Alaska with Jason Fellman, Ryan Bellmore, Emily Whitney, and Amy Holt from ACRC and USFS.

The joy of working with brilliant mentees is the thread I am clinging to in trying to keep hope right now. Here is an introduction to our lab (in comments) prompted by a dinner celebrating the recruitment of PhD student Chloe Hall - see more at our weebly site.

Sharing this brave piece that echos a lot of what I have been feeling. The silence around DEI from institutions means the damage is already done. Leadership asking us to keep our heads down to prevent actual damage ignore that it’s already here for people like me. stanforddaily.com/2025/03/03/f...

The 2014 toxic Microcystis bloom cost the city of Toledo over $60mil to do extra water treatments, take care of people who got sick, and in list economic activities because the city was without water for over 3wks.
