📢 We're starting a new blog series in which we'll be interviewing PhD students about their research on climate processes, impacts, adaptation and mitigation!
In the first edition, we speak to Dalena León Fon Fay about spectrally nudged storylines 👇

For over 15 years the McMaster Ecohydro Lab has awarded the #NobelPeatPrize to the authors of the best peatland or peat paper of the year.
It’s that time of year again where we review papers and finalize a list of nominees.
Do you have a fave paper for 2025 you would like us to consider?
I picked the worst time to learn how to use em dashes effectively.
“Wait,” I said, before clicking the link. “What does Google have to do with earthquake emergency alerts in Turkey?”
spoiler alert the answer is “giving us all a haunting glimpse into the privatization of science and emergency management”
It’s NSERC PhD season!
If you’re :
➡️ finishing an MSc (or supervising someone who is)
➡️ looking for a PhD in 2026
➡️ into mountain hydrology (glaciers, snow, groundwater)
Let’s chat! 🎉
Happy to support curious and keen applicants as a potential advisor 😄

I might be a bit biased, but this was a good conversation
“Amazon intends to build on the [10-acre wetland, in the middle of the complex], pointing out that it is a small, shallow wetland, not a major nature preserve.”
Except it’s widely known now that small wetlands play a disproportionately large role in ecosystem services!

Spent seven days on the West Coast Trail, hiking across incredible landscapes with amazing people.
I feel lucky to be able to immerse myself in nature and witness all the earth's processes around me. To be an earth scientist and be able to see and hear the earth is such a gift.

I passed east of you! I took the I-90, going from Mt. Rainier to Grand Teton NP through northern Idaho/Montana.
Thanks Rachel! 😊
That was in Olympic National park! I wish I would have made it to Crater Lake. I decided to go east after Washington towards Jackson Hole/Grand Tetons instead of south. Still very beautiful, but I definitely need to get myself to Crater Lake at some point.
😊 Thanks Nate for the validation! It was a great trip, all of the ups and downs included, and the hard reset has been so nice!
It's a privilege to take this time off, but if folks find themselves in this position, I highly encourage the break.
I hesitated, worried people would question my "passion." But the goal of hard work is partly to enjoy what you've built! So, if you can, take the darn break!
I am giving myself space to reflect on what I want, away from others' expectations (perceived or real).
I am still burned out, but I can feel the space being made and excitement for my work creeping back in.
The past 6 years have been full of challenges, lots of caretaking, and burning the candle at both ends, trying (and many times failing) to keep the balls in the air.
I got some fresh snow in CO and I found myself giggling, as I floated through the powder and moved around the trees. Pure catharsis.

Been quiet on here lately. I have been intentionally carving out time post-PhD to have fun, take a breath, and finish up some remaining papers.
Started off the break with a cross Canada-US trip in my van to ski, hike, and camp, from Ontario through the Pacific Northwest down to Colorado. ⛷️🥾

I have limited capacity right now, but I'd be happy to sign it.
I forwarded to a few other folks.
Would anyone be interested in workshopping an open letter to AGU on this?

When asked why I studied the US instead of Canada, my answer was always the same: the US had more data and better data management.
I am feeling devastated watching as agencies' websites go dark... I can't help but feel like the sheer loss of data will thwart the progress of our science.
This news item covers our preprint (version online not peer reviewed) where we looked at the difference between guaranteed minimum stipend values for graduate programs in physics and biology, and measures of local cost of living.
Hope to have peer reviewed version out soon #PhDsky #academicSky
We are currently seeking a MSc domestic student (i.e. Canadian citizen or permanent resident) to join a cohort of newly recruited HQP. The project will focus on developing and testing novel stream biomonitoring methods incorporating eDNA to assay community membership from microbes to fish. These rapid bioassessment techniques will be tested against traditional approaches in their ability to produce functional, community and multi-trophic indicators of ecosystem integrity and biodiversity along a gradient of impact recovery. The student will be hosted at Laurentian University (Dr. Brie Edwards) and co-supervised by Dr. Erik Emilson (Natural Resources Canada). Field work will begin in Spring of 2025 and will be conducted in the Sudbury area. As such we are recruiting a student interested in starting May 2025. Ideal candidates will have a strong background in aquatic ecology and an interest in benthic bioindicators, molecular techniques, and population and community responses to environmental change. Quantitative skills in statistical analysis are desired but can be provided through training programs at the respective institutions. Interested students should send a CV, cover letter expressing interest and relevant skills, as well as a copy of unofficial transcripts to Brie Edwards (bedwards2@laurentian.ca). Please include “CRADLES graduate interest” as the subject line.
GRAD POSITION: MSc position aquatic ecology and conservation at Laurentian University w/ flexible start date. Contact Brie Edwards (see ALT text) for more details #AcademicSky

Text: Help us document the experiences of geoscientists with disabilities in the workforce by taking our survey. The logos of the International Association of Geoscience Diversity and the Mind Hears appear beneath the QR code that links the survey.
We are looking for geoscientists who are or were in the workforce to take a participate in a survey about their experiences. There is almost no data on disabled geos beyond the student level and we aim to change that. Please share widely!
New study uses machine learning to map US industrial poultry facilities using satellites, finds clusters of facilities in high social vulnerability areas.
