'As the ocean marches inland: How rising seas reshape coastal landscapes'

Dr. Chao Wang will be sharing a seminar in the Department of Geography and Environment Colloquium series this Friday at 3:30 in Carolina Hall room 220 -- join us!

Although we typically consider photosynthetic allochthonous and autochthonous carbon in stream food webs, chemoautotrophic sources (ammonia or sulfur oxidation) can contribute substantially, and incorporate ancient C. Recently accepted to FWS, online at www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

Another great trip studying how methane contributes to food webs of glacial rivers in Juneau, Alaska with Jason Fellman, Ryan Bellmore, Emily Whitney, and Amy Holt from ACRC and USFS.

The joy of working with brilliant mentees is the thread I am clinging to in trying to keep hope right now. Here is an introduction to our lab (in comments) prompted by a dinner celebrating the recruitment of PhD student Chloe Hall - see more at our weebly site.

This week we are sampling some incredible glacial-fed streams near Juneau, Alaska - I can’t wait to learn about carbon sources and redox heterogeneity in these systems!

Excited to see everyone at #2024SFS ! Here is a list of work to be presented by our lab members and collaborators.

Every semester our lab takes first year seminar students and community members to see aquatic macroinvertebrates. Nothing like seeing stream life firsthand!

First year seminar students make jamboards to diagram the mysis introduction in Flathead Lake…thoroughly entertaining 😂

1st UNC and Duke freshwater chalk talks! - @jonnybehrens.bsky.social: urban stream productivity, Audrey Thellman: measuring phenological differences between ecological fcns quantitatively, and Spencer Rhea: measuring salinity efx on DOM. @wiseclimate.bsky.social TY all for great discussion!

The story of a remarkably adapted food web and unique ecosystem, 50 years of work synthesized: stoneflies as integrators of ecosystem processes in the “bioreactors” that are alluvial aquifers

Testing how longitudinal variation in GHG shifts over the seasons - Shreeya Patel, Chloe Hall, and Nguyen Anh Tien Quach pictured collecting Q.

Come work with us to understand contributions to riverine GHG flux! We’re looking for a postdoc to join us at UNC in collaboration with Dr. Emily Bernhardt. Pref. quals incl. useful skills but can be developed during postdoc as well. Likely >1yr. unc.peopleadmin.com/postings/266... Email me with Qs
