Excited to share the first publication from my PhD work on swamps!
We conducted a synoptic study of 12 swamps across southern Ontario looking at carbon pools and fluxes.

So at noon we find out that the last six months was the joke, right?

Right?!!
Some beautiful winter fluxing in the swamps over the last few weeks
Whether it's the bog, fen, swamp, or urban wetland, we love to get fluxy 😁

The swamps are coming alive again
Happy meow-loween from the peatland cats, Black Spruce and Larch!
Then ---> now
2017, 3rd yr undergrad, the summer that started it all w/ @kenzco4.bsky.social in AB & NWT.
2023, 3rd yr PhD, the swamp project that just keeps growing w/ @wetland-ghg.bsky.social in southern ON.
Thankful for these two amazing women for taking a chance and believing in me.
Taking a nervous system reset break with my wonderfully chaotic native gardens. Love this corner.
Check in on your queer friends and family today 💔🏳️🌈
Super exciting Friday evening in the lab

Someone come work in the swamps with me and tell me about the hydrology!!
Wettest day yet after a big storm last night - 45 cm at the collar in the pool!
