My former colleague Min Chen, now at @uwmadison.bsky.social , has a great "Proposal Coauthor Tool" uw-gcrl.github.io/coauthor_tool/

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join a newly funded project on “Coupling in situ high-frequency soil moisture data and remote sensing products to bridge spatio-temporal gaps explaining forest health, evapotranspiration, and water availability dynamics across forest biomes”.

❗❗ New Python Notebook For USGS Data❗❗ There have been multiple requests to get the Streamflow data from the USGS National Water Dashboard. Well this notebook will do just that. It will get the data, plot it, AND provide a KMZ to be loaded into your systems. Go and play! github.com/jjrennie/usg...

Hosting Giova Mosquera at CNR has been a great way to end the semester! He gave great insights into the hydrological processes of tropical and subtropical landscapes during his research seminar talk and guest lecture to the Watershed Hydrology class at NCSU.

NEW: NSF has been funding research at a fraction of its historic rate. Last week, the agency finally began distributing money to its directorates and is now likely to pick up the grantmaking pace. But these allocations also amount to substantial cuts across the sciences. My reporting:

BIOGEOMON 2026 attendees will have several opportunities to get out of the conference hall and into the field with several excursions planned for the June event in Sweden. Details here: bit.ly/BIOGEOMON_Ex... 🌐🧪

Seminar alert for NC State College of Natural Resources students and faculty: @giovamosquera.bsky.social will present his work on "Streamflow generation in a Tropical Intermittent Hydrological System under Changing Land Use" on Thursday, 23 April, 11:30 AM-12:30 PM at JORDAN HALL ADDITION, ROOM 3212

North Carolina friends! I'm heading your way this coming Earth week for public talks at Wake Forest, Elon, and Duke (plus over two dozen more small events including guest-teachings classes, meetings, interviews, and more). If you're in the area, I'd love to see you there. Details below ⬇️

The river was popular with whitewater kayakers and rafters. Helene hurt, but the trouble kept coming.

We had the pleasure and honor to host Magali Nehemy at our Department of Forestry and Environmental Resources at NCSU. The Watershed Hydrology students appreciated her insights on transportation and the hands-on activities on how to measure it in the field.

Review: TEACHING STORYTELLING TO AMPLIFY STUDENT VOICES Maru Gonzalez, Michael Kokozos & Christy M. Byrd offer an inspiring & transformative vision for reimagining education through the power of student narratives. #edusky #teachersky @routledgebooks.bsky.social www.middleweb.com/53287/amplif...

How do mountain streams keep flowing during record-low snow years? Our new paper in Nature Geoscience explores how old groundwater buffers streamflow during low-snow years in the Upper Colorado River headwaters. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Oh this is great: there’s now an #Artemis II Lunar Flyby Gallery on the NASA images site: www.nasa.gov/gallery/luna... (thx @dpmanchee.bsky.social for pointing it out)

What will happen to the 82 USFS experimental forests around the country? Many sites have decades-long experiments that are tracking how forests are changed by timber harvesting practices and climate change. As I say here, “you can't just pick up an experimental forest site and move it to SLC.”

The US Forest Service. This is madness. Illegal, obviously. But madness even if it weren’t. WTAF morethanjustparks.substack.com/p/breaking-t...

@hydrochrista.bsky.social @domciruzzi.bsky.social, and I asked hydrologists across the country for their syllabi so we could investigate how instructors were teaching hydrology courses and think about the future... Here’s what we found + suggestions agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

Stop Guessing, Start Planning. Ever look at a single snow forecast and think, "But what are the actual odds?" The Probabilistic Precipitation Portal is a resource to help you get ahead of the storm by moving beyond a single number to give you the full picture. www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/Prob_Precip/ 👇

The differences in type will likely be quite variable across the Eastern US this weekend. If it's going to be snow or freezing rain will have important consequences. You can report the type of precipitation with @noaa.gov's mPING app: mping.nssl.noaa.gov See resulting maps here mping.ou.edu/display/

Over 160 million people are under winter hazards associated with the impending major winter storm. Disruptive snowfall is likely from the Rockies to the Northeast, including dangerous ice from the ArkLaTex to the Mid-Atlantic. You can find a detailed forecast at weather.gov. Here's the latest...

I just created a series of seven deep-dive videos about AI, which I've posted to youtube and now here. 😊 Targeted to laypeople, they explore how LLMs work, what they can do, and what impacts they have on learning, well-being, disinformation, the workplace, the economy, and the environment.

Does anyone have experience with a Accomplishment-Based Renewal proposal to NSF? What would qualify as competitive metrics of accomplishment? number of publications? number of mentees?

The Boston Globe Test: This satirical front page imagined a Trump presidency in 2016. Critics (including Trump himself) dismissed it as "alarmist" and "propaganda" at the time. Do these headlines feel normal today? Even...quaint? If so: we have grown more accepting of what was once unthinkable.

Sigh. Shutting down the National Center for Atmospheric Research will make the world a more dangerous place for all of us.
