Get your abstract in before Aug. 4th for #AGU21 session - Advances in Hydroinformatics : Building Accessible Knowledge base and Resilience, convened by @SudarshanaCE and co-convened by our own @BalesJerad link for details https://t.co/LrZjjTqtgV

The biosphere is getting thirstier as the planet warms--outstanding global study by @ecohydro_wang @jiaowz and colleagues

[Dr. Lucky Tran @luckytran]

Comms fails:

In 2020 authorities said “Don’t wear a mask, they don’t work!”

Instead of “Wear a mask, but save the best ones for healthcare workers”

In 2021 they said “Ignore the pandemic once you’re vaccinated!”

Instead of “Get vaccinated. But be careful until others are too”

Me: the climate is warming
My family at Thanksgiving: then explain the polar vortex!

We’ve all encountered the frustration of #falsifiability in conversations about #climatechange. Check out @EvanArnet’s article on the history, importance and pitfalls!

You may have heard that science is falsifiable. But what exactly does this mean? SCIU’s Evan Arnet investigates https://t.co/ilYadNEl0P

We’re at the @SciNetUCS Team Leaders 2021 Summer Summit! As Dr. @luckytran says, when it comes to making good public policy, data alone is not enough - we need science advocacy!

May is #JewishAmericanHeritageMonth. Fittingly, today we recognize two #vaccine pioneers: Jonas Salk & Albert Sabin. Each developed a #polio vaccine, that together allowed us to approach global eradication of polio. @ScienceMagazine explored in June, 2000: https://t.co/L8cJJHbmIG

[News from Science @NewsfromScience]

Early Native Americans were among the first coppersmiths in the world, creating a flourishing culture in and around what today are the Great Lakes. But then, mysteriously, this culture faded. A new study suggests why. https://t.co/CEGleDkcAp

Previous attempts to thwart the pesky blue light wavelengths us students soak in all day have been focused on masking. This new LED starts at the beginning to straight up make less of them. Still a prototype - if you need testers, we’re here!! 🖐🖐🖐🧑‍🔬👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

"These days, it seems like even the most basic, demonstrably true scientific facts are drawn into the sphere of politics and debated through the lenses of competing ideologies." https://t.co/fXkywjo1wt
