Big shout out to former @Sihi_Lab postdoc @ZhuonanWang and co-authors @JituOr @sr_weino @KatheMathBio and Umakant Mishra! Our SOC estimates outperformed commonly used gridded soil products.https://t.co/6A6NYmMPvh

This new paper quantifies how well working lands are represented by LTAR sites, and explores strategies to leverage complementary sites from @NEON_sci and @USLTER

[Agricultural Research Service @USDA_ARS]

ARS researchers are looking to ensure that working lands in all U.S. regions are represented within the USDA Long-Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) Network. https://t.co/1orhY8b6me

@BharatSharma_IN's paper on carbon cycle extremes from long-term global Earth system model simulations is out in #JGRBiogeosciences. He attributes changes in those extremes to climate drivers that change over time @ORNL @ORNLComputing @ComputationalS @ORNLBio_Env

[Jitu Kumar @JituOr]

Paper just out on analysis of carbon cycle extremes from long term (1850-2300) Earth System Model simulation, led by PhD candidate @BharatSharma_IN, from his research at @ORNLBio_Env @ORNLComputing

[Dr. Bharat Sharma @BharatSharmaPhD]

Our Paper is out in @JGRBiogeo, quantifying the impact of CO2 and land use & land cover change (LULCC) on GPP extremes and their attribution to compound climate drivers. https://t.co/4j4gT7PEDm. We used CESM1BGC simulations, forced with RCP8.5+ECP8.5 and with and without LULCC.

@aJollyAdventure I used their Python API and it worked reasonably well for small regions. I had to do few variables and year at a time since it crashed if asked for too much. Did all processing after downloading locally.

[Jitu Kumar @JituOr]

How are editors still allowing "available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request" in the "Open Research" statements.

@jawzsh @BenjaminSulman @Colleen_Iversen @vgsalmon @AmyAkillk @ORNL We have done it with AVIRIS-NG around NGEE study Watersheds (manuscript in near final draft stage), currently extending it to broader Seward with S-2.

@NASAEarthData @GEDI_Knights Will GEDI Finder be updated to work with v002? And any timeline for v2 for rest of 2019 and 2020 data to be released?

[Jitu Kumar @JituOr]

@Kate_J_Fuller @GEDI_Knights @Web_LiDAR As per ATBD Section 5.2.2, rh metrics are relative to elev_lowestmode, and rh0 is often times a negative value. Can @GEDI_Knights help clarify where the ground is (elev_lowestmode) vs rh0?

[Jitu Kumar @JituOr]

@Kate_J_Fuller @GEDI_Knights @Web_LiDAR Not sure, still trying to understand the documentation. Fig 8 of https://t.co/XSvJ7RoiTh, and Fig. 3 of https://t.co/Qr82NMNB0q don't show ground elevation and rh0 as same.

Ever wonder where the flux source areas (#footprint) of eddy-covariance towers are? esp, when using large datasets like #FLUXNET @AmeriFlux. Check our new synthesis collaborated by many AmeriFlux teams & ~214 sites
