Everyone go see 'Hoppers' ASAP In Pixar's new film, humans and animals fight to block a freeway overpass that would destroy a wetland habitat. It's a brilliant climate parable.

Beaver scientist @emilyfairfax.bsky.social, who consulted with Pixar on "Hoppers," loved the film's message.

EPA & Army Corps Unveil Clear, Durable WOTUS Proposal | US EPA EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, and Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works Adam Telle, today announced a proposed rule that would establish a clear, durable, common-sense definition of “waters ...

The rule also removes protections for ephemeral streams (waterways that flow only after rain or snow) despite their importance to downstream water quality. In short, this proposal rolls back long-standing protections and leaves millions of acres of waterways more vulnerable to pollution.

ABCFlux v2: Arctic–boreal CO2 and CH4 monthly flux observations and ancillary information across terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems Abstract. Measurements of surface-atmosphere carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) fluxes have been relatively sparse across the Arctic tundra and boreal biomes, causing significant uncertainties in ...

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!

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

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!

Example of how the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite's water surface elevation measurements can be used to record flow wave propagation over space and generate a “spatial hydrograph.”

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...
