Interested in how microbial interactions influence carbon biogeochem? So are we! Check out our latest work using lots and lots of simulations to explore how removing functional taxa from a microbial community influences decomposition. Spoiler: Stress matters! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

The Impact of Microbial Interactions on Ecosystem Function Intensifies Under Stress
We use a trait-based model of microbial litter decomposition to build a novel framework for how different taxa impact ecosystem function. We highlight the interplay between taxon traits and environme...

Today, thousands of American-Jews and allies gathered outside of the US Capitol and on the National Mall in Washington, DC for a "Jews Say Stop the Genocide of Palestinians" protest organized by Jewish Voices for Peace. Beautiful solidarity in the face of so much darkness.

I'm excited to see the new edition of "Wetzel's Limnology: Lake & River Ecosystems" out! It was an honor to contribute to this multi-year project & work w/ Tonya DelSontro on the Organic Carbon Cycling & Ecosystem Metabolism chapter (LOTS to update post-2001!)🌎🧪 www.sciencedirect.com/book/9780128...

Teaching intro data science or stats in environmental sciences / ecology this fall? The lterdatasampler package is now on CRAN, with curated real world datasets from the US Long Term Ecological Research program! Check it out: lter.github.io/lterdatasamp...
A hexagonal design with the words lterdatasampler at the top. Within the border are plants, animals and weather patterns representing the different datasets currently in the package.
