🌊 Sediment transport + biofilm + EPS = a fascinating Virtual Science Talk this month! Dr. Stephanie Dohner (US Naval Research Lab) and Dr. Judy Yang (U of Minnesota) are teaming up on November 19 to talk about how tiny microbes and vegetation influence massive coastal processes. bit.ly/EPSP_NOV25
Two scientific talk abstracts on a blue background with wavy topographic patterns. Top abstract titled 'EPS, EPS, every where: Noncohesive seabed evolution with ecosystem impacts' describes how exopolymeric substances (EPS) in marine environments contribute to carbon sequestration and sediment transport, focusing on biocohesion and bioturbation impacts on sediment mobility and seabed roughness through in situ and laboratory experimentation. Bottom abstract titled 'Multiscale Fluid, Sediment, and Biota Interactions in Aquatic Ecosystems' discusses using microfluidic and flume experiments to investigate biofilm dynamics, sediment transport, and hyporheic exchange, revealing how microbes and vegetation influence sediment stability, geomorphic evolution, and pollutant transport for erosion control, water quality, and ecosystem health. Bottom section contains partial speaker biographies.

From NSF EAR program director Raleigh Martin on LinkedIn #climatesky #greensky
Yesterday, my federal agency (NSF) experienced a sudden and mass firing of over 10% of our workforce. My own Division lost 20% of its staff. In the blink of an eye, we lost many brilliant scientists, dedicated civil servants, and parents/spouses/caregivers who no longer have a paycheck. The firing was completely arbitrary, with no actual plan to achieve "efficiency" but instead just picking off anyone with the fewest job protections. I grieve for my former colleagues and extend my hand to be of help however I can.

I still have a job - not based on my abilities but simply because my status makes me harder to fire. But who knows what comes next. I'm hoping this assault on science and government is just a passing storm, but even then the damage has already been devastating - careers broken, research disrupted, and resources wasted.

Science is the goose that lays golden eggs - unleashing human ingenuity and systematic thinking toward discoveries that transform our society for the better. Public science funding creates space for research that may not have immediate applications but will yield dividends down the road. Unfortunately, right now the science goose is being strangled and those golden eggs are being lost. Our society will be poorer, sicker, and weaker as a result.

A promotional flyer for an AGU EPSP Connects Virtual Science Talk featuring Dr. Safiya Alpheus. The flyer has a deep blue background with white and yellow text. It shows Dr. Alpheus smiling at the camera in a casual plaid shirt against a canyon backdrop. The flyer includes her talk title about braided rivers, abstract, biography, and registration details with multiple time zones listed.
A virtual science talk promotion showing Dr. Safiya Alpheus, a fluvial sedimentologist who studies river dynamics and sediment transport at ExxonMobil. Her research examines how braided rivers record ancient environmental changes, focusing on how channels move and change shape in response to landscape conditions. Using numerical modeling and satellite imagery, she studies river mobility patterns to understand how factors like slope, sediment flow, and channel networks affect river behavior, helping decode ancient geological records. Dr. Alpheus earned her Bachelor's and PhD in Geosciences from Penn State University. The flyer features registration details with multiple time zones, and shows Dr. Alpheus smiling at the camera in a plaid shirt against a canyon backdrop, set on a blue design with white and yellow text.

New federal directives have instructed agencies to cancel any external presentations for several weeks. As a result, the EPSP event with David Callery and Cara Sponaugle of the USFS BAER team for Wednesday January 29th, has been canceled. We are sad. We hope to reschedule this event in the future.
