Happy to share @kriddie.bsky.social's latest paper, published in L&O today. This figure compares data from our ~400-hectare watershed in Ecuador (colors) in relation to a synthesis paper of dissolved carbon concentrations in ponds worldwide (gray)

Huge shoutout to IREU students Penelope Brocco, Dylan Martin, & Ellis Clark. They have been in Ecuador 🇪🇨 for 1 month and have hiked tens of km of river network near Antisana Volcano collecting awesome data (more on the actual data later). They are amazing #NSFFunded @uncgeography.bsky.social

I recently completed ~3 weeks of field work in Ecuador 🇪🇨, along with the 5th and last cohort of international REU (IREU) students funded by a NSF CAREER grant. This project has funded the participation of 20 undergraduate and 3 Ph.D. students, many of them first-gen like me.

Congratulations to Kriddie Whitmore on successfully completing her PhD journey! From demanding fieldwork in Ecuador 🇪🇨 to mentoring 17 undergrads🧑‍🎓🧑‍🎓 to conducting rigorous data analysis, Kriddie set a high bar, and she'll be dearly missed. She now joins the Sponseller and Rocher-Ros labs in Sweden 🇸🇪

I’m pleased to share a publication led by recent Ph.D. graduate Andrew Murray. We present a new machine-learning approach for estimating water supply source (public v. private) at the census block level for the entire United States in 2020

We recently celebrated the graduation of two dear members of my lab: 1) Andrew Murray completed his Ph.D. in geography and is now a scientist at EPA's Office of Research Development; & 2) Chloe Hall completed a B.S. in environmental science and is now joining the Jones Center as a research assistant
