Lovely #soil art from @deh75.bsky.social Starting work together on a soil #watercolor #art diary of sorts this spring!

Come learn about soil health!

Happy to share another paper from the loess tablelands of the Great Plains, on organic C in buried soils and how it becomes susceptible to decomposition. We sampled the Brady Soil along transects of decreasing depth of burial and increasing erosional exposure. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I’ve got one, love it

Come say hi at #AGU25 and hear about our work on post-wildfire water quality issues. eppro01.ativ.me/appinfo.php?... #AGU25

More soil celebrations! Soil properties greatly impact water storage & transport across the landscape. In eastern Oregon, geologic events have continually changed the distribution of soils & reshaped the hydrology. Here we’re looking at the changes induced by basalt flows & recent ash deposits.

Happy International Soils Day! With likely 100k plus soils worldwide directly and indirectly supporting humanity, it’s difficult to overstate how important they are to our wellbeing. Don’t let soils go unnoticed, dig into how soils impact your lives! soilhealthinstitute.org/our-work/ini...

Spent the week at the USFS Starkey Experimental Forest in north-central Oregon (near La Grande). Extensive old basalt flows capped by ~7500 year old ash deposits that drastically changed the distribution of vegetation, making for interesting hydrology today.

Good idea!

New in @science.org: Natural hazards aren’t “one and done.” They alter the landscape, changing the likelihood of follow-on events. We argue there’s an urgent opportunity for geomorphologists—working with other disciplines—to better understand and forecast cascading hazards.

Summer rains (and snow) on severely burned hill slopes. We’ve seen several slumps and debris flows throughout the Boise NF this spring/summer.

Life is hard if you are a GNSS station on a volcano with lots of fumaroles – everything wants to corrode you. This station was part of a National Science Foundation funded project (details below). Under the FY2026 proposed budget, NSF Earth Science funding would take a 64% hit. #VolcanoMonday 🧪⚒️🌋

Latest Blatten aerial survey 4:30 pm! 🚁 Authorities expect the lake to overflow the dam this night or at last early tomorrow morning! 🌊 They have partially emptied a dam lake 6 km down the valley and are ready to evacuate Gampel/Steg in the Rhone valley during the night 🎥 SRF

These tactics, as we note, are not new (see my 2015 @nytimes.com op-ed linked below (www.nytimes.com/2015/12/08/o...). But Republicans, polluters and plutocrat overlords are taking it to a whole new level now.

Seeing Blatten buried again and again, from every angle... Properly staggering! 😮😱

Good news! Northwestern University scientists have delivered a one-two punch against Lyme disease in two recent studies published in Science Translational Medicine. The research reveals a more effective treatment option and explains why some patients experience symptoms long after treatment.

Seismic transects in Dry Creek Experimental Watershed. Teaching a summer field course on soils and geophysics with fellow @boisestate.bsky.social faculty Qifei Niu. Students are killing it!

My USDA soil health and rural development program was frozen and then terminated this semester. My amazing colleagues at Boise State stepped up to temporarily support me and my staff. I’m working on 4 short-term projects until I find something permanent. Scattered but some great summer fieldwork 🏔️

Post #fire debris flow impacts on river water quality and downstream food webs. Spring melt and new debris flows starting. Anyone interested in doing some complementary #eDNA sampling? This is a Blue Ribbon fishing area in case that’s incentive 😅

Made a post about What Worked and What Didn't at last night's Climate Change Crafting night! Every time I run a new type of event, I learn something. I write these posts almost like a lab notebook so YOU can run science community events wherever YOU are! Read here: www.patreon.com/posts/126134...

Such a cool discussion on Dunning-Kruger effect. Wondering how this breaks out by gender, especially for the highly skilled individual. My experience in academia tells me we are or are perceived as being really bad about this (male academics,that is).
