Christmas is over. Time to panic submit your EGU abstract! Why not send it to our session on aquatic ecosystems and greenhouse gases?

🚨New paper!🚨 Models predict trees like beech will migrate north as climate warms, but rarely consider tree reproduction. Jessie shows these “refuges” are exactly where climate warming will disrupt seed production the most. They may not be such great climate refuges after all.

Peaty people: we're hosting a special issue in the Taylor & Francis journal Sustainable Environment. Do consider submitting to it - the scope is broad and multidisciplinary. think.taylorandfrancis.com/article_coll...

🚨Job opportunity🚨

My quote from an Axios interview, stating that: People often think of climate change as a separate bucket at the end of a long row of other buckets of problems we're trying to fix that are wrong in the world," Hayhoe told Axios. This includes poverty, disease and access to clean water. "Climate change is not a separate bucket," Hayhoe said. "The reason we care about climate change is that it's the hole in every bucket."

If you take the time to read the whole Gates memo (which I did), the bulk of the content was mostly solid and encouraging. Really!

It was the FRAME that was off--very off, from the first line.

And when your framing is off, then how you make decisions and set priorities is off. THAT'S the problem.

Thank you!

My plan is to use the prize funds to explore greenhouse gas isotope biogeochemistry in global rivers - keep an eye out for a postdoc position coming soon

It’s a real honour to be awarded a Philip Leverhulme Prize in Geography - looking forward to doing some more cool science with the help of this award! A big shout out to all my collaborators and mentors who have supported me along the way

A few more from our recent Svalbard fieldwork 🫧 what an incredible place.

New in JGR Biogeosciences: The Importance of Inland Water CO2, CH4, and N2O for Summertime Greenhouse Gas Exchange With the Atmosphere in Arctic Tundra Lowlands by Martyn Rosco et al. 2025

A new study investigates the three most important GHGs in ponds, lakes, and streams in an area of Arctic Siberia over two summers (2016–2017).

An algal bloom on a nutrient enriched lake encroaches into the Nymphaea alba and Chara hispida beds, causing plant dieback. Your work will develop a novel, targeted analytical method to allow us to rapidly screen samples to determine the molecular composition of the dissolved organic nutrients in these and other waters. These provide a critically important but overlooked nutrient resource driving ecosystem damage and biodiversity decline in waterbodies. We currently lack a unified technique that can rapidly screen samples in a targeted manner. You'll likely be highly motivated, enjoy both field and laboratory work, and be a good analytical chemist with attention to detail who is keen to make your mark through novel method development. Give Ian a ring or send him an e.mail (ian.d.bull@bristol.ac.uk), or contact me here or via my e.mail penny.johnes@bristol.ac.uk. We have a large team on the ERC REFRESH programme that you will be joining, along with two other PhD students due to start at the same time. Great team and learning opportunities.

We show that summertime CO2 and CH4 emissions from inland waters are an important component of lowland tundra carbon exchange with the atmosphere offsetting the terrestrial sink capacity. This is an important consideration for constraining future Arctic responses to climate warming

And that N2O inland water emissions were negligible compared to CO2 and CH4

We also found that a large flood pulse increased total landscape greenhouse gas emissions (and broke our eddy covariance tower...)

We found that inland waters (lakes, ponds and streams) offset the summer terrestrial carbon sink by about 9–13%

The Importance of Inland Water CO2, CH4, and N2O for Summertime Greenhouse Gas Exchange With the Atmosphere in Arctic Tundra Lowlands Integrating carbon emissions from inland waters into the carbon landscape exchange offset the summer terrestrial carbon sink by ∼9–∼13%. Carbon emissions from inland waters were higher during flo...
