AGU is gathering info/stories on impacts for this lawsuit and other potential actions here: forms.monday.com/forms/f553b2...
If you are in the US, please take a few minutes to share your input!

In this mountain biodiversity review, we emphasized roles of habitat creation, disruption, and oscillation in driving biodiversity. Additionally, we developed a set of geomorphic predictors that may influence biodiversity patterns, with the potential for application to other montane systems.

Wow. This is bonkers www.commerce.senate.gov/2025/2/cruz-...
just looking quick through the spreadsheet, apparently Andean tectonics, LA-ICP-MSs, and the physics of turbulent flow are now advancing "neo-Marxist class warfare propaganda"? So sorry for everyone caught in this insanity 🤯

From reddit: a letter from a postdoc who survived the Bolsonaro years. This is helpful framing for how to science in this administration. 🧪

1/ How often does a major droughts hit the Alps? A deep dive into the data. 🌍

Having free and accessible drought data makes it easy to check how climate change has already impacted a region. Using our global drought dataset envidat.ch#/metadata/gl..., I took a closer look at the Alps. 🧵👇

For geomorphologists going to EGU - registration is now open for Steepest Descent! This is an awesome 1/2 day meeting on the Sunday before EGU. Completely ECS community organized thanks to Jesse, Caroline, Rocio, Amanda, Jonah, Reha, and Emma!

Who’s going to EGU this year? Into tectonics and climate? Submit an abstract to our GM session Interactions between tectonics, climate and surface processes by Jan 15! Invited speakers: Loraine Gourbet & Jingtao Lai meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/sessio...

Geomorphologists often study climate change impacts without involving local communities in the research. The Sediment Cascades workshop in Chile aimed to combat this through meaningful engagement with community members. New post in @eurogeosciences.bsky.social GM blog! blogs.egu.eu/divisions/gm...

Some colleagues from our Centre and Potsdam University commented on that — and yes, statistically not so convincing 👇🏻

We are advertising for a PhD position in landslide-flood interactions in the Himalaya as part of the IAPETUS DTP programme - please get in touch if you are interested in a PhD in cascading hazards, geomorphology, sediment, and machine learning! iapetus2.ac.uk/studentships...

Can anybody update me on the state of the art for landslide mapping nowadays? Are people still using Sentinel or did everybody try to switch to Planet data? Are there still folks hand-mapping and/or using image segmentation, or am I a fool if I don't use AI?

Great to see so many people out demonstrating (again!) against the proposed budget cuts that would gut research and education in The Netherlands.
