"The agency has been operating streamgages in the United States since the 1880s. One of the first 120 gages the agency installed was in Wisconsin in 1899 ... That longevity gives scientists an essential resource for tracking Wisconsin’s bodies of water." via @wisconsinexaminer.com

I've reached out to multiple authors this week to try and get data from their papers. So far, all I've got is a collection of bounced emails.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

Every scientist, long before they were a scientist, was a little kid who stood in front of a fish tank or stared up at the stars or turned over a rock to look at the bugs underneath and said “wow”. On the best days, working in science still feels like that.

The making of last week's #TidyTuesday visualisation, recorded using {camcorder} in #RStats 📹 There was something weird going on with the interaction between {ggtext}/{marquee} and {ggpattern} for displaying images, so the hardest part ended up being arranging them with {patchwork}

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Vizlab has just released a new, interactive data visualization website about the USGS National Water Availability Assessment Report and Data Companion. Explore the data and the key findings of the assessment at water.usgs.gov/vizlab/water... #DataViz #rstats #USGS

Stylized illustration of the water cycle of the lower 48 United States, showing the fate of water that enters through precipitation. Most of the water returns to the atmosphere through evapotranspiration, but much of the water ends up in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, in Canada, or in the Gulf of Mexico through streamflow.

Map of water limitation in the lower 48 United States by watershed. Areas with relatively high water limitation are in the high plains, Texas, California, and the Mississippi Embayment hydrologic regions.
