last chance to get in on the votes for Round 1!! check out these eight human-impacted catchments! my loyalty will always lay with the Chesapeake Bay — I fell in love with hydrologic science there, and really appreciate all the beaches, tidal marshes, sunsets, and critters the Bay has to offer

more river cup!! vote for your favs and stick around for some fun facts! in my humble opinion, Hubbard Brook is the clear winner here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

another day another group of catchments to vote for! head to the H3S website to vote for your favorite rain-dominated catchments! I am preferential to Panola, because I think our southeastern, slightly less steep watersheds deserve some love! pls enjoy this nearby Piedmont watershed (Talladega NF)

The last two rain-dominated catchments in Round 1 of #CatchmentCup2025 : Panola Mountain vs Piabanha You have until 5 pm EST TOMORROW (10/7) to vote at: www.agu-h3s.org/rivercup Scroll below for facts!

also life update: a lot happened in Sept… I defended my dissertation, and got to share all the exciting things we’ve learned about small southeastern streams! I also started as a postdoc at Oregon State! i’m stoked to work with @wardhydro.bsky.social on the role headwaters play in downstream WQ!

RIVER CUP IS BACK AND GOT A REBRAND THIS YEAR!! vote for your favorite research catchments and maybe learn some new fun facts along the way!! I’m team #headwaters for sure!

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...

[email protected] & others show stream networks in the Mobile Bay watershed are much more complex than shown in USGS maps. 🧪 eos.org/articles/mob...

... 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!

had an wonderful time at #AGU24! I had the awesome opportunity to present my first dissertation chapter in the long-standing CZ session (preprint available here: doi.org/10.31223/X5M...) and think about how our perceptual model of Coastal Plain hydrology fits into the larger picture ...
