🚨New Paper 🚨
The PeatPic Project: Predicting plot-scale green leaf #phenology across #peatlands
So happy to see this paper online — one of my favourite projects!
We explored how to capture how peatlands change colour using smartphones and community science!
iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...
Are you fascinated by how peatlands form and how they are impacted by human land use? I am seeking PhD students to join my lab at the Asian School of the Environment in Singapore. For more, visit dynamicpeatlands.org/phd-programme
Attending #AGU25 with caregiving responsibilities? Whether you're joining virtually or in person, our Caregiver Grant is here to support you!

New study where McKenzie Kuhn, I and co-authors show that accounting for differences among wetland and lake types is crucial for estimating current and future boreal-Arctic methane emissions – out now in Nature Climate Change.

IPS is proud to announce that it will co-host the AsiaFlux 2025 conference in Riau, Indonesia. Register now if you want to participate in this important event. www.asiaflux2025.com #peatlands #southeastasia #climate
Already getting abstracts! Submit yours by July 30 to join us and invited speakers @rswamper.bsky.social (UC Santa Cruz) and @bmcgivern13.bsky.social (UW Eau Claire) in New Orleans for #AGU25!

We'll be hosting invited speakers Hinsby Cadillo-Quiroz from Arizona State and Jonathan Gewirtzman from Yale to share their work on methane cycling inAmazonian peatlands and trees! Submit an abstract by July 30 to join us in NOLA for #AGU25

I totally acknowledge that many folks who may regularly consider attending AGU will be hesitant and/or unable this year. Hopefully those of us who are able (and feel comfortable) to attend can make the most of it and celebrate the good work our community is doing despite immense challenges.
Also convening a session on #peatland and #wetland carbon cycling at #AGU2025! ⬇️
We'll be hosting a session on #methane cycling & emissions across ecosystems again this year at #AGU2025! Submit your abstract by July 30 to join us in New Orleans for another year of great methane discussions! @drbenrunkle.bsky.social

Simons Graduate Fellowships in Ecology and Evolution, provides 3 years of PhD support to perform research in ecology and evolution.
If interested in pursuing a PhD in the Tumber-Dávila Lab, I encourage you to submit an LOI (due July, 31st)

First paper from my postdoc is out in WRR with open access!
We explored how contrasting watershed features influence NO3 and DOC transport and transformation in an agricultural watershed

Long letter from NSF Director Sethuraman Panchanathan, available here: https://nsf-gov-resources.nsf.gov/files/Letter-to-the-Community.pdf
🧪 The NSF director is lying to you.
Let’s fact check 7 claims from yesterday’s letter to the community, while pointing out 3 critical omissions. 🧵
If they are really cancelling NSF REUs, then we need to change graduate admissions to exclude or minimize the importance of past research experience. There's just no way to compete unless you are well connected or monied otherwise.
if you’re 25 years old with control of the entire treasury system and you don’t delete every student debt file, you are the biggest loser the world has ever seen
Absolutely fucked up beyond all recognition.
NSF has an insanely low administrative overhead. Laying off staff saves nothing and the cost to our leadership in scientific advancement (with massive public and business implications) will be long-lived and dire.
list of banned keywords
🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
There's a postdoc in peatland biogeochemistry advertised on our project by Dolly Kothawala and Gustaf Granath
at Uppsala University. I can highly recommend Uppsala as a place to live and work.

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives
Watching in real time how the policy of complying in advance actually reduces scientific productivity
I'm very sad that "I have a paper on this" continues
Funding delays of > 30 days lead to, after 5 years:
- 40% increase in scientists exiting US labor force (constrained among those born in the US)
- 20% decrease in wages
- Burden is born by postdocs, grad students, and staff
Really appreciate Jonathan Lambert pointing out that NSF grants are congressionally mandated to weigh how grants broaden participation in science, putting the administration's executive order against DEIA in conflict with, and potentially undermining, congressional legislation
I mean, literally, the answer to this is "I am federally prohibited from telling you anything about my students without a subpoena or judicial warrant; if you have a subpoena or judicial warrant, please submit it to [Legal Officer/Office] to ensure it is in compliance with all relevant federal laws"
🚨PIs of Training Grants and Programs, ESPECIALLY training grants that support students from historically excluded groups (T32s and T34s, IMSD, MARC, PREP, MOSAIC, etc.)🚨
We need to push back on the loss of information and the disappearance of websites about these resources.
I'm hiring, two fully funded PhD positions! Come work in Umeå in Arctic Sweden, a leading place for high-latitude ecosystem ecology and carbon biogeochemistry
So excited to have this paper from my dissertation out! We explored shifts in the interactive effects of climate, deposition, and watershed properties in driving lake DOC over the past 40 years. Open access ⬇️ link.springer.com/article/10.1...
