Hey @agu.org - did you take down your "Ethical, Diverse & Just Science" page? When I click, the page is down. AGU has long been a leader in ethical and equitable science, and I wasn't expecting AGU to give into anticipatory obedience (www.aaup.org/news/against...). What's going on?

Thanks @marisaexplores.bsky.social :)

How Rock Type Shapes River Networks and Influences Landscape Evolution - Eos A new study in Chile shows how small differences in rock type can drive large differences in erosion, vegetation, and river networks, illuminating the role of mineralogy in shaping landscapes.

Some very cool research on how lithology and vegetation impact landscape morphology was highlighted in Eos! 🥹I worked on this with colleagues at the GFZ-Potsdam, Uni Marburg, and University of Chile as part of the Earthshape network 🌎🫶 eos.org/editor-highl...
