I'm looking for postdoc positions in freshwater biogeochemistry! Interested in any projects investigating nutrient and carbon cycling, phytoplankton coupling with dissolved organic matter cycling in human-altered landscapes, or hydrology and spatial modeling!

Who said flying is limited to the sky?

This footage shows the largest known migration of mobula rays, captured in the waters of Baja California Sur.

Filmed by freediver and photographer Aidan Bedford.
A quiet reminder that art often begins with attention.

This team are searching for new "Asgard archaea" to sequence.

Let's talk about why these bacteria-like organisms are so fascinating, why they're named for Norse mythology, and why looking at them is unlocking a better understanding of our own genomes.

I'm looking to switch out the Winogradsky column lab I've been doing in my Wetlands course for something new (I never get visible diffs among treatments and I don't think students are getting much from it).

What are your favorite labs for an upper level Wetlands course? Bonus if biogeochemistryish!
