It was so fun working on this one with @paleomunoz.bsky.social and @charlottewiman.bsky.social!
Lots of papers out by the @paleomunoz.bsky.social lab this week! Starting with blue carbon from paleo-seagrass beds in Virginia! This was a fun one with @mmglacialgeo.bsky.social and many different labs @northeasternmes.bsky.social. aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
Century‐scale resilience of stored seagrass blue carbon
Blue carbon sequestration in coastal ecosystems is only relevant to climate change mitigation and carbon offset crediting if the carbon is taken out of circulation for at least a century. Here, we ex...

the crew that’s kept me going. of course none of this would be possible without the unstoppable @radatmines.bsky.social
I'm so proud of my little Rates and Dates family and everything we have built together these last couple of years. ❤️ In a time of so much uncertainty in U.S. science, I'm finding so much comfort and joy in focusing on this brilliant crew and the amazing work we're doing together.

An absolutely travesty for such a critical program for our field to lose funding
Well, we're learning more about what "harmful DEI" is. Inspiring Girls* Expeditions Alaska just lost a large chunk of their current funding. This is an outstanding free program that has brought great young women into earth science. Consider a donation, maybe? www.inspiringgirls.org/donate-uaf-e...

🔥New paper alert!🔥 We show that ice near Thwaites Glacier was thicker 1.4 kyr ago, which fits West Antarctica growing in the Common Era. Led by @cosmokeir.bsky.social, with key work from @radatmines.bsky.social, @mmglacialgeo.bsky.social, @geologicaljo.bsky.social, @stever60.bsky.social, + more. 🧵

Nice poster by Marion McKenzie and Ellie Abrahams on machine learning and scientific filtering to identify bed forms. By combining the two techniques they get a really high accuracy with low false positives.

Automatic identification of streamlined subglacial bedforms using machine learning: an open‐source Python approach
Morphometric values of streamlined subglacial bedforms provide valuable information about the relative speed, direction, and maturity of past ice streams. This paper presents a new tool that utilizes...
