Rivers and streams each help remove excess nitrogen from surface waters, but there are important differences between them. New research by @abagaelpruitt.bsky.social, @ajreisinger.bsky.social, and coauthors in new @jgrbiogeo.bsky.social research.

The Arctic is warming, rivers are turning orange & the marine ecosystem is rapidly changing, according to the 2025 Arctic Report Card, in which #UCDavis wrote about Alaska’s rusting rivers. Postdoctoral researcher Abagael Pruitt shared her insights on a #NOAA panel. www.ucdavis.edu/climate/blog...

This year's Arctic Report Card from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration finds that the northernmost part of the Earth is warming faster than the global average, leading to melting glaciers, shifting fish populations, and rivers running orange. n.pr/4rYZwLP

Check out our new paper, led by @abagaelpruitt.bsky.social, quantifying whole stream/river denitrification rates in an ag river and its tributary across seasons. Abagael did a great job leading this work and its a really great application of the open-channel N2 method! dx.doi.org/10.1029/2025...

We conditioned these handy recirculating mesocosms (at #NotreDame) under a range of temperatures. Then we added #eDNA from from two fish species and and took H2O samples over time to measure removal rates for different eDNA sizes. SO to @abagaelpruitt.bsky.social letting me use her experiment setup!

New paper out today!! We know warming speeds up eDNA removal in lakes and ponds, but what about streams and rivers where physical removal may obscure the impact of decay? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Warming Increases Environmental DNA (eDNA) Removal Rates in Flowing Waters
This study experimentally investigated how warmer water temperatures impact eDNA removal rates in flowing waters. Using recirculating mesocosms with varying water temperatures (20°C, 23°C, and 26°C) ...

She first got involved with SFS as an undergraduate at The University of Kansas when she attended SFS 2019 in Salt Lake City. Her favorite part of her program is being able to travel for conferences and research. Here is a photo of her two cats, Dr. Meowstus and William’s Original Chili Seasoning.
