Last week I was in the tundra doing field work, now I’m heading to Baltimore for ESA2025. I kinda miss the tundra and our awesome field crew.

On my way to ESA2025, but still thinking about these cool zoops we found in permafrost troughs this field season. This was from just 100 ml!!!

"A report by economists at American University in Washington DC estimates that a 50% reduction in federal science funding would reduce the US gross domestic product by approximately 7.6%." Science is an amazing engine of economic activity and progress for the US ... or at least it was.

New(ish) paper to share with all the new & familiar folks on Bluesky (I'm glad you're all here!): Iannucci et al. #Temperature and #Flow Control Organic #Carbon #Metabolism in #Boreal Headwater #Streams agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/... 💧🌎🧪👩‍🔬 #JGRB #AGU #MacroCO2 #BonanzaCreek #LTER

Figure 1. Map of study sites in the Caribou-Poker Creeks Research Watershed (CPCRW). Darker shading denotes estimated permafrost extent (<4 to 54%). Sampling locations for sites C1-C4 are at the outlet of each catchment. Inset shows the location of the CPCRW in Alaska.

Figure 4. Metabolism and stream chemistry vary with permafrost extent. Center lines, boxes, whiskers, and points indicate the median, interquartile range (IQR), 1.5 × IQR, and outliers (n = 57–119 per site per year). ER = Ecosystem Respiration, GPP = Gross Primary Production, SUVA254 = specific ultraviolet absorbance at 254nm scaled by DOC, DOC = dissolved organic carbon.

Figure 5. Carbon (C) and phosphorus (P) co-limit respiration in laboratory incubations. Center lines, boxes, whiskers, and points indicate the median, interquartile range (IQR), 1.5 × IQR, and outliers of O2 demand (μmol O2 L−1 h−1) across all sites.
