Hot off the press! New paper characterizing storage and release processes in two permafrost catchments with @theoryofciaran.bsky.social @seankcarey.bsky.social. We characterized these processes by closing the water balance, EMMA, and StorAge Selection Functions (1/n) doi.org/10.1029/2024...

A fantastic job opportunity for someone to work at the interface between Atlantic salmon habitat modelling and management. Cutting edge research as part of an excellent project team.
Postdoc offer : Remote sensing modeler of Atlantic salmon river habitat suitability
We are looking for a resourcefull person with cross-over expertises in remote sensing (Lidar and satellite imagery), programming, wildlife habitat modelling... and ideally hydraulic modelling and AI. ;-)

Wow, here's the Yukon River ice break-up in the territory of the Trʼondëk Hwëchʼin. Our research group at YukonU had boots on the ground and eyes in the sky (plane/UAV) to make observations. These observations help researchers create models to better predict and respond to flooding due to ice jams.

NEW PAPER, JUST OUT! 👀
Insects from the '70s and '80s were already collecting microplastic, decades before the term microplastic even existed. 🤯
A thread on the surprising history of this pollutant and the incredible insect larvae that helped us uncover it. 🐛

Happy field work Friday!
Had 2nd year undergraduate students out measuring stream flow on @mcmasteruniversity.bsky.social west campus this week for a hydrology lab session.
Despite a couple leaky waders, the students loved the practical hands-on experience. We saw a mink too! 🦦 #Neature

First paper of my PhD published, woo!
It asks how stream thermal sensitivity is influenced by northern environmental factors *cough* permafrost *cough*
Key pf. take-away: permafrost may both increase and moderate thermal sensitivity.

Another field work photo from Yukon, Canada. This one shows pH dependent mineral precipitation at the confluence of two streams. The white colour is from aluminum precipitates and orange colour is from iron precipitates. This phenomenon results from natural weathering of shales.

First salt tracer study successfully completed in my Yukon study streams!! Lots of surface and subsurface transient storage in these permafrost-rich headwater streams. Having some good tunes makes the stirring much easier. Many thanks to Matt Lindsay at USask for lending the geopump!
