Hello, Bluesky! I’m a German Americanist at UT Austin. I study the link between the earth sciences and cultural production in 20th-century America. My current research looks at paleontology, land use policy, and ideas about deep time in US culture.

Actually, @stephchildress.bsky.social and I have been thinking about this since we spotted some gators and other wildlife in the Cattail Marsh Wetlands (Beaumont, TX), which was built in the early 90s by the by the Beaumont Public Utilities Department to treat wastewater.
I saw this alligator in Freeport, TX, right next to gigantic oil refineries. The intersection between marshlands and oil development on the gulf coast is so fascinating to me. Does anyone have book recommendations on this relationship from an environmental history perspective?
