Excited to share that I'll spend this summer with the @latimes.com 🗞️ as a part of the environment, health and science team 🧪. Thanks to the @aaas.org with support from the @agu.org !

This is such a fun #Sciku by @mack-baysinger.bsky.social , travelling from optimism to realism over three short lines, accepting the positives of failures.
This time it will work
Or back to Bauhaus we'll go
Mostly, its Bauhaus

🌱❄️ As winter turns to spring, many cryospheric scientists are getting ready for the start of summer field work campaigns.
🧪 Check out this memory from the field, from PhD student Mirjam Paasch

New year - new team!
Today we would like to introduce you to the new chief editor team of our #cryoblog: please say hi to Mack and Leah! 🥳❄️

My first field expedition as a PhD student taught me that no matter how perfect your “sampling plan” is, the conditions of bog itself is what ultimately determines how many soil measurements you can take.
Here’s a #Sciku about this, from my lab notebook 🧪 to Bluesky!

my latest news piece for @eos.org
New #permafrost #peatland paper! 🥼❄️ 🌿 🧪⚒️
Here, my co-authors and I incubated soils from a palsa in northern Finland to see how the potential production of GHGs change at each thaw stage. We able to connect increases in CH4 to the effect of modern vegetation inputs.

A cool read for any wetland fan, and my first news story for @eos.org !
Image description:Dorothea on the day of her defense with her PhD Hat. Text reading: "division blogs: Cryospheric Sciences Cryosphere Caps: PhD hats and the researchers that wear them – Episode 4 read now."
Following the German tradition, after successfully defending a thesis, the labmates of the #PhD student craft a graduation #hat from a mishmash of scrap cardboard and memorabilia.Check out Dr. Dorothea Moser's fascinating PhD hat 🎓.

Today's #cryoblog is another episode of our #cryocaps miniseries, where @mack-baysinger.bsky.social chats with researchers about their PhD hats.
In episode 4 Mack meets @heartmeltingice.bsky.social who tells us all about ice core melt.

An amazing turn out for a beautifully sunny women and non binary @egu-cr.bsky.social lunch. What a wonderful community we have @egu.eu
We were interviewed about our PhD hats by the fantastic @mack-baysinger.bsky.social! Check out the Cryosphere Caps miniseries - thanks for the opportunity to discuss these lovely hats!

Hello! I'm a PhD student studying biogeochemistry with a focus on peatland and permafrost systems. Here is a link to my page on the department website : www.awi.de/en/about-us/...
A group of people standing around a person holding a intensely decorated PhD/graduation hat.
Today we extend on @mack-baysinger.bsky.social's PhD hat mini-series with an interview on #nitrogen -cycling organisms in Siberian #permafrost and how they found a place on @nitrogentina.bsky.social ' PhD hat! blogs.egu.eu/divisions/cr...
In Nature Climate Change, we show that a year above 1.5 °C signals that Earth is most probably within the 20-year period that will reach the Paris Agreement limit. @natclimchange.bsky.social
‘PhD hats’ tell the story of a PhDs students research, through the eyes of their peers. I’ve helped make a few of these hats during my time with @awi.de, and it’s become one of my favorite parts of studying in Germany. The hats are fun to make, and even more fun to write about :) 🎓
Excited to share the first paper from my PhD! Here, we found that soils with Sphagnum moss produced the most carbon at near-zero temperatures. All other soils in the transect produced more carbon, with higher incubation temperature. Sphagnum moss continues to intrigue www.borenv.net/BER/archive/...
