Excited to share our paper in Estuaries and Coasts (tinyurl.com/3ree52mj)! If you're interested in dissolved & particulate organic matter in estuaries, check it out! We found river discharge and terrestrial DOM were key while POM was both terrestrial and phyto dominated. (1/3)

A big thank you to my co-authors (incl. @closburn) for sticking through the process! This is the 3rd chapter of my dissertation - it's amazing how far this story has come since I defended (sometimes things take time...) and I'm excited to see it out!

Hey SFS'ers, we have a severe judging shortage. If you can take a little time to support students by evaluating presentations, it will make this annual experience so much richer for all of us! Sign up here: duke.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/… @BenthosNews @sfs_src

Huge congrats to @DexterHoward77, whose 1st first-author paper is out! We monitored 10-min fDOM for a full year in #FallingCreekReservoir: link.springer.com/article/10… Take-homes: 1) organic matter concentrations vary a lot day-to-day in reservoirs! 1/4 @GLEONetwork @VT_Biology

In a first of its kind study, Drs. Cayelan Carey (@CareyLab) and Alexandria Hounshell (@Seashells1111) of @VT_Biology have found that oxygen levels in lakes & reservoirs have significant effects on concentrations of CO^2 and methane in the atmosphere 🌌

Excited to see our work in #ASLO_Letters highlighted by @vtnews this AM (tinyurl.com/y696l9mf)! We conducted a 3-yr whole-ecosystem experiment & found higher CH4 in the bottom waters of reservoirs with depleted oxygen (anoxia) vs reservoirs with oxygenated bottom waters (1/4)

This is one of the 1st studies to show this using a whole-ecosystem manipulation experiment and could not have been completed without collaboration with the Western VA Water Authority and co-authors @CareyLab, @ryan_mclake, and @MEL_phytos! (Note: photo from Summer 2019 : ) (3/4)

Next steps include linking greenhouse gas concentrations with DOC concentration and quality using fluorescence, which you can hear more about during my AGU talk Friday (tinyurl.com/y2kbl4dh). Preview slide below! (4/4)
