New article alert! Is there always longitudinal connectivity in rivers? What about those fragmented by lakes and semi-alluvial reaches? We found extremely low connectivity in paraglacial regions based on continuity of channel width changes and in riparian vegetation. www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Disrupted geomorphic and biotic stream connectivity in paraglacial regions - Communications Earth & Environment

Natural disconnectivity in paraglacial river networks disrupts downstream trends in channel width and riparian plant richness, as revealed by two catchments with local controls on channel width and species dispersal.

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

🚨 all EGU journals have cancelled their Twitter/X feeds 👏👏 But for reasons beyond me have decided not to engage with BlueSky 🤷 - if you’d like a BlueSky presence for your favourite EGU journal - I’d suggest getting in touch with @eurogeosciences.bsky.social (or liking this message?) pls RT 😀👏

Sharing this from Rt. Rev. Jonathan H. Folts, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of South Dakota. “One of our own priests was targeted at his home—so let no one say, ‘it can’t happen here.’ It can. It has. It is. And rest assured, we will not remain silent or passive in responding.” My heart aches.

Keep pushing back. Hard. He blinked on tariffs. His California water stunt failed and has been ridiculed. He was forced to roll back cutting grants and govt payments. NSF support is resuming. CDC webpages are being restored. Street protests are starting. Lawsuits are being filed. Fight back.

Hear me out — If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is. Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.

Re-posting to encourage everyone to reply to this to be added yourself & suggest other — early & senior career, from the northern hemisphere, global south, East & West— fluvial researchers! I def don’t know all the fluvial researchers out there (or who’s on bluesky yet). There’s room for >100 more 😊

So exciting to see Bluesky taking off literally overnight— I’ve missed the academic, science, river social media community! To celebrate here are 3 diverse stream/river pics from my morning commute. Any fluvial geomorphology in anyone else’s commute?
