Not sure if I’m supposed to promote my work as a furloughed government employee, but our paper comparing vegetation communities of the now-submerged central Bering land bridge and modern (Holocene) Bering Sea islands, with implications for the timing of sea-level transgression, is out!

The term “abrupt permafrost thaw” is increasingly used in the scientific literature. The concept comes with challenges as authors look at “abrupt“ change with different perspectives on time scales, magnitudes, and impacts. Webb et al developed a new conceptual framework: doi.org/10.1007/s406...

A Review of Abrupt Permafrost Thaw: Definitions, Usage, and a Proposed Conceptual Framework - Current Climate Change Reports
Purpose of Review We review how ‘abrupt thaw’ has been used in published studies, compare these definitions to abrupt processes in other Earth science disciplines, and provide a definitive framework f...

I have a new paper out, a result of a postdoctoral project I was doing at Kumamoto University between 2021 and 2023. In this study, we investigate how the ~120 m sea level fall at the Last Glacial Maximum might affected the temperature and precipitation in Eastern Asia. ⚒️🌊🦣 🧵 doi.org/10.1186/s406...

Impact of topographic change on the East Asian monsoon in Japan and Eastern Asia during the Last Glacial Maximum - Progress in Earth and Planetary Science
The rainfall patterns in Eastern Asia are largely a consequence of the Asian winter and summer monsoons. On timescales 10 $$^4$$ 4 –10 $$^6$$ 6 of years, the position and strength of the monsoons chan...

Bring back the wetlands to reduce fire severity. Fire smart landscapes must include wetlands. Protect, restore, reclaim wet soils.

I have never stayed at AGU so long that they announce the poster hall is closing! Great meeting seeing lots of old friends and new, energetic faces.

Hi everyone! I have been lurking but probably should introduce myself. I am a research geologist interested in wetland vegetation, climate, and carbon cycle dynamics on sub-centennial to multi-millennial timescales. I have sites from the tropics to the Arctic. I love peat, especially ancient peat.
Temperate swamp with some dying trees impacted by sea level rise. Open water in the foreground with sparse, saturated forest in the background.

In my big thread of #AGU24 talks I missed a couple by @miriamcjones.bsky.social about charcoal methods for paleofire reconstruction (Tuesday morning: PP21E-0510, PP21E-521)
