Was really fun to cover this work in a Perspective w/ @freeassocdesign. Sediment austerity is the new coastal norm, but resuspended sediment is likely behind surprising temporary marsh resilience. Creative coastal planning needed. doi.org/10.1126/science.adl4…

Very happy to share that my research team's most recent paper is now available #OpenAccess at @geosociety!
In short, we found that #beaver dammed river corridors in the Rocky Mountains are incredibly fire resistant, even during megafires.

Congrats to @deni_trogen on her WRR paper looking at wet deposition-stream N synchrony over 17 years of data in the Lamprey River. Spoiler: wet deposition magnifies assimilation and mineralization in the watershed but is not a main driver of river N. doi.org/10.1029/2023WR034794

Was reflecting on value of communicating hope in conservation with someone yesterday. Before cancer I approached that discussion from intellectual, strategic perspective. But yesterday I felt the conversation viscerally. With cancer, I remember exact moment I first felt hope.
