Electrify homes! Reduce exposure to NO2! 🙂 More programs like this one, please, to make induction stoves and heat pumps accessible to rural households, regardless of income!

Artemis II Commander Reid Wiseman took this picture of Earth from the Orion spacecraft after completing the translunar injection burn. There are two auroras (top right & bottom left) and zodiacal light (bottom right) is visible as the Earth eclipses the Sun. 🧪🔭 #Artemis www.nasa.gov/image-articl...

A massive No Kings crowd turns out in Minneapolis, Minnesota

thoughts on today: 1) the protests are good, actually 2) you should go to one of you can 3) it will do you good to see how many other people also hate this guy 4) you might meet people who you can organize with 5) there are more of us than there are of them 6) we are going to win

New paper in @annalsapplbio.bsky.social – "Overcoming environmental constraints to high-yielding eastern cottonwood productivity in the southeastern United States" onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

I just resigned from NASA. It breaks my heart to leave, but I’ve become convinced the best path forward is to do the best science I can, and that can’t be here anymore. I’m still in love with the promise of those four magic letters. Ad astra per aspera, and remember: Earth is the only good planet.

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

The heat energy we added to the ocean LAST YEAR is the equivalent of: - Detonating ten hydrogen bombs every minute - operating over a hundred large power plants continuously for all of written human history - Five times all the electricity human beings have ever used

Today was the last day for our SPRUCE experiment. Bringing it to a close after 10 years! mnspruce.ornl.gov

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

#AGU25 folks, there is a rapid- response town hall TODAY on the #NCAR dismantling at 1 pm, La Nouvelle Orleans ballroom C (per an AGU media advisory)

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

We could get rid of half of the radiative forcing of climate caused by aviation if we could get airlines to stop making contrails, mostly by flying a few thousand feet higher or lower. New open-access paper from a climate physics perspective. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

📢📢📢 The application window is now open for YCNCC's Fall 2025 Postdoctoral Fellowship call. Details and application via the below link. We will start reviewing applications after 12/1. Please share widely!! naturalcarboncapture.yale.edu/opportunitie...

Excellent, well-informed new podcast! Like a ship entering a storm, we’re now entering the overshoot - a world above 1.5 degrees C #globalwarming. This requires a whole new mindset, explored by Laurie Laybourn.

Jane Goodall, ethologist and conservationist, has died. She was 91

Reminder: two more days to apply for this opportunity!

Yessss new paper is OUT! Scott Ferrenberg led this effort to tease apart "nurse plant" effects in the Chihuahuan Desert. Spoiler alert: don't underestimate the power of a little shade in arid systems @scottferrenberg.bsky.social rdcu.be/eH1O8

New paper out in Biofpr: "Environmental metrics of ethanol production improve with increased biomass yield and carbohydrate content in Populus trichocarpa" scijournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

You still have 5 days to apply for this awesome postdoc opportunity in the Environmental Data Science Innovation & Impact Lab at the University of Colorado-Boulder! This could be your backyard!

New in @globalchangebio.bsky.social- "Which Plant Traits Increase Soil C Sequestration? Empirical Evidence From a Long-Term Poplar Genetic Diversity Trial".

The Department of Biology at Colorado State University is hiring an Assistant Professor in the area of plant-microbe interactions! Please spread the word! jobs.colostate.edu/postings/165...

Do you like acoustic data, community ecology, and desert oases? Apply for a PhD in my lab to investigate the role of ephemeral water sources (i.e., playa lakes and tinajas) in structuring desert bat (and maybe bird) communities. Visit lavertylab.org/join-the-lab for more. Applications due October 1

This will end the Hispanic-serving institution (HSI) program (schools with >25% Latino undergrads). For reference, current flagships that are HSIs include Arizona and Arizona State, 5 UCs (Irvine, Riverside, Merced, Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz), Rutgers, U New Mexico & NM State, UT Austin & UT El Paso

The 2025-26 Eco-Evo job list is out. Good luck to those applying! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Enjoying the cool weather in Baltimore this week for #ESA2025. Come hear about the long-distance movements of lesser long-nosed bats that my colleagues and I have been documenting this Thursday at 8:45am (COS 128 - Behavior: Migration and Movement 1). Please don't be afraid to say hi!

Also if you're at #ESA2025 and interested in bats (maybe birds too), bioacoustics, arid landscapes, and thinking of a PhD, please say hello. I plan to recruit 1-2 grad students. Spring or fall 2026 start with a focus on desert waters or renewable energy. lavertylab.org Happy to meet up!

NASA is making plans to shut down two Earth observing satellites that provide key data to climate scientists and farmers, despite lawmakers telling them it’s illegal to do it. Story by @astrokimcartier.bsky.social eos.org/research-and...

The EPA cited my paper in their argument against the endangerment finding today. However, their point is completely backwards: my paper actually supports the EPA's 2009 range of 1.8C to 4C warming by 2100. www.nature.com/artic...

Out today in Parasites & Vectors, Angelo Andrianiaina led a paper in which we described the seasonal diversity and effect of climate on ectoparasites on two species of Madagascar fruit bat, Eidolon dupreanum and Rousettus madagascariensis doi.org/10.1186/s130... 🧪🦇

Hey US weather folks...this is a big deal. Go follow @nws.noaa.gov cc @faineg.bsky.social

Excited to share our new global estimate of nitrogen fixation out now in Nature! This work sets a new gold standard for understanding how much nitrogen is fixed in the terrestrial biosphere. Huge thanks so Carla Reis Ely for leading this incredible work! urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=htt...

More congressional spending panels are pushing back against the drastic research cuts sought by President Donald Trump. And energy research would actually get a small boost. scim.ag/3TA0jD0

Bruce's first gotcha day: then and now. So glad to have this pup in my life. He's excited for @johnlfield.bsky.social to come back from TN soon!

Wishing we were still offline and at alpine lakes... Glad to have traded fireworks for wildflowers for the holiday last weekend with @johnlfield.bsky.social and our cattle dog mix Bruce along the Santa Barbara Divide in the Pecos Wilderness. Successful first backpacking trip for Bruce!

This is such a loss. I've served on the selection committee for this program for the past three years, because it has funded so many incredible people doing such important research over the years. It should be expanding to meet the new challenges of climate change, but instead is totally defunded.

If you have a R representative in the House, the time to call them to oppose the bill is today, right now actually. Takes 60 seconds. This action is worth, and I’ve done the math on this, the same as posting on here 100,000 times. 5calls.org

we worked so hard on this, nights and weekends, trying our best to do a good job for the American people

We cannot scicomm our way out of this, part …I-don’t-know-I’m-tired-of-counting

NASA just won an Emmy for our live broadcast of the total solar eclipse last year. We produced a documentary film about the James Webb Space Telescope that's out in theaters and on Netflix. We have podcasts, we write feature stories. People wear the agency logo on t-shirts. We're still getting cut.
