It has taken more than two years (plus all the years data contributors have spent on their data collection), but finally our data descriptor manuscript preprint on Arctic-boreal carbon fluxes across terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems is out: essd.copernicus.org/preprints/es... Go have a look!

A fabulous #postdoc opportunity to work with my colleague Nick Ward at PNNL on forest trace gas cycling, studying a poorly constrained component of the Earth system! Please share widely: careers.pnnl.gov/jobs/10985?l...

Registration and abstract submissions for oral and poster presentations are now open for #ASLOSIL2026 ! Don't miss this opportunity to share your insights at the ASLO-SIL 2026 Joint Meeting 12-16 May 2026 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. 🇨🇦 @aslo.org

super excited to share that my first dissertation chapter is out in WRR! here, we operationalize the river corridor of a headwater Coastal Plain network into hydrogeomorphic features to characterize hydrologic connectivity across dimensions check it out here: doi.org/10.1029/2024...

My first paper of my PhD research on catchment biogeochemistry in Michigan is live! Wetlands, Groundwater and Seasonality Influence the Spatial Distribution of Stream Chemistry in a Low-Relief Catchment agupubs-onlinelibrary-wiley-com.proxy2.cl.msu.edu/doi/10.1029/...

What mechanisms underlie near-universal export patterns of dissolved carbon from land to rivers? Reactions at different depths regulate their directionality (+ or -); subsurface flow paths control strength Congrats to Dr. Bryn Stewart! rubyfu.caltech.edu/people/bryn-... doi.org/10.1029/2024...

Hydrology Paper of the Day @profbobhilton.bsky.social on transport of river-dissolved inorganic carbon on a global scale: isotopic analyses indicating decadal and millennial-age carbon stores; constraining river carbon emissions; and landscape-scale controls in context of the global carbon budget.

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!

Hydrologists! Ever heard of a Spatial Hydrograph? Our new paper in @agu.org GRL shows that the SWOT satellite can capture spatial flow waves propagating down rivers—something previously only only observable at river gauges: doi.org/10.1029/2024... #SWOT #hydrology #RemoteSensing #EarthObservation

The relationship between topography & the terrestrial water cycle has been documented for thousands of years, yet there is still much to learn about Earth’s complex dynamics–both above, at, & below the surface.🏔️🌧️ 🔗 Learn more in @eos.org : buff.ly/y6r3yAr #AGUPubs @reviewsgeophysics.bsky.social

Congratulations to Dr. Amy Burgin (@burginam.bsky.social), our 2025 Leadership Award recipient! Dr. Burgin received this Career Award for her extraordinary work in furthering SFS' mission. freshwater-science.org/2025-leaders... We look forward to celebrating with you at #2025SFS!

Latest paper out of the WS hydrology lab! Here we show spatial variability in lithology is important for streamflow behavior and carbon export, but geogenic solute export behavior is similar. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

When streams dry up, it can mean big changes for the nitrogen cycle—but those changes don’t appear to be what scientists expected. eos.org/research-spo...

I passed! I’m so grateful for all the support :) Dr. Pruitt sounds pretty cool!

So excited for my first first author paper of my master’s research to be published!! Woohoo!! Couldn’t have done it without the amazing coauthors and AIMS team!

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

EPA's "WOTUS Notice" press release. With this updated guidance, most wetlands will lose federal protections under the Clean Water Act. www.epa.gov/newsreleases...

For anyone curious about what "indirect" (Facilities and Administrative) costs related to government-sponsored research, this video is helpful F&A are imperative to be able to perform research and a massive cut to this would jeopardize American science writ large www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxTD...

Fellow nonperennial stream enthusiasts and researchers! We are excited to announce that we are hosting a special session at SFS 2025 “From the mountains to the seas: Expanding the sciences of non-perennial streams."

... AND got to present a poster on our new project understanding the drivers of channel initiation across the larger Southeast! thank you to Mark DeGraff for the opportunity to share this work with the larger community, and excited to see where it goes from here!

Looking forward to seeing LOTS of amazing science & scientists at #AGU24 next week! Reach out if you're going & would like to connect. One panel, several posters, & two talks I'm associated with are listed below. (Thurs will be busy!) #wetlands #streams #carbon #AGU #biogeochemistry #hydrology 💧🌎🧪👩‍🔬

@thatsmedelp.bsky.social giving a great talk on hydrogeomorphic features at AGU Fall Meeting!

Registration for Michigan State University Extension's award-winning Introduction to Lakes Online course is open! This six-week online class is designed for anyone interested in gaining a greater appreciation for inland lakes. Come learn about lakes with us! www.canr.msu.edu/courses/intr...

Worried about the climate convo with your uncle at Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow? Jimmy and I have you covered.

Hi BluSky! I want to brag about a paper we published in August (I didn't post then b/c I was having knee surgery). We investigated the competing influences of the Maumee River and algal blooms on the carbon budget of Lake Erie's Western Basin. (1/6) agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

I personally use option B because it makes sense to apply it in the geom function, but I love the idea of option C for mapping your aes and then doing your geometry functions separately. Either way all options need to be taught to new R users. Great post — check it out!

The #UConn Microbial Ecophysiology Lab studies the biology of methane-producing microbes (methanogens or methanogenic archaea) and their role in ecosystems & host-associated microbiomes. We are people who do science, but we also actively work to include diverse perspectives in higher education.

This is such a great resource, and if you are feeling unmoored or helpless or lost or burnt out, consider signing up.

Wow-one of the most interesting comments I've gotten for #SciComm: "Schimel’s book, “Writing Science” and BIOL 735 have served as invaluable resources. They have transformed writing from a vague, iterative, hope-for-the-best process into an algorithmic approach to creating easily digestible works."

Navigating Academic Waters: Giving Back and Providing Service as a student and early career hydrologist is happening Thursday! NOV 14 / 1 PM ET Panelists will discuss types of service opportunities that are a good fit for student and early-career researchers! us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

We've long known that ferns were the first to establish after the ☄️ that killed the 🦕. They're also some of the first species to arrive after 🌋. In a new paper, led by former BEAST Lab postdoc Lauren Azevedo-Schmidt, we suggest that ferns may play a special role in ecological recovery.
