Excited to share our new review in Reviews of Geophysics! We explored the latest advances in tracer-aided mixing models for studying water in the Critical Zone. We synthesize new tracer methods, models, & key insights. I think it'll be a valuable resource for the community doi.org/10.1029/2024...
Recent Advances in Tracer‐Aided Mixing Modeling of Water in the Critical Zone
Tracer-aided mixing models are uniquely capable of identifying water flow paths and sources within the Critical Zone Recent advances offer novel tracers and models for deeper and more accurate in...

You know the way we all talk about leveraging 'omics information to improve ecosystem/biogeochemical model performance - well here's a step in that direction - led by Zhen Li integrating across many scientific teams to make this happen www.nature.com/articles/s41...
A framework for integrating genomics, microbial traits, and ecosystem biogeochemistry - Nature Communications
Microbes drive the Earth’s biogeochemical cycles. Here, Li et al. present a framework for integrating genome-inferred microbial kinetic traits into ecosystem mechanistic models, and use it to benchmar...
