I’m really excited about this paper, which links #seaweed species’ nitrate uptake & photosynthesis rates w/ functional #traits, providing a predictive framework for understanding roles in nutrient cycling & productivity. 🌊🦑🧪📏🌐 @jngriffy.bsky.social @intertidaleco.bsky.social @mle425.bsky.social

My phone range at 5:20 this morning - it said possible spam and went to voicemail. It was a textbook rep. 🙄 Instead of an apology for a pre-sunrise call, there was some spiel about not having time to fit calls to CA in later in the day. Even 8:20 am would be too early for that.

I tried to put together an honest assessment of why we even care about weather balloons in a satellite world and why these cuts probably won't be noticed by the public 90% of the time. But the 10% of the time? That's a very, very, very big and concerning 10%.

The current administration is straight up censoring the scientific record by requiring authors to alter an already-accepted research paper because it uses banned words such as "gender" and "equitable" and presents data broken down by sexual orientation.

My mollusc pop lab is a little harder in the winter b/c snails & slugs do a good job hiding when it's cold! But we still found some snails (only 2 slugs) plus many empty shells. And of course everyone loves finding the non-mollusc salamanders. Not sure what the other labs found in a different spot.
