As a geoscientist, this seems fine, but needs more rocks. Should probably ask some of our BRIDGES wildlife bio faculty for analysis though.

[BRIDGES @WEFNexusUM]

@DrLimnology Our @raspishake couldn’t see it down in Missoula, but that probably because our vacuum runs between 9-10p. It creates a background wiggle that can obscure smaller signals.

[BRIDGES @WEFNexusUM]

Check out one of our BRIDGES students giving a great look into the big-picture problem solving and interdisciplinary nature of FEWS work!

The eruption of #LaPalma in the Canary Islands has immediate safety impacts on the residents, but what will the longer-term food system impacts be? Large swaths of between the eruption and the ocean are now off-limits for quite a while. https://t.co/f7u5DTHuNo

[INVOLCAN @involcan]

Hoy se ha publicado y actualizado un nuevo mapa de coladas de lava de la erupción / A new lava flow map of the current eruption site has been published and updated today @IAVCEI_official

This research on the Texas energy grid and its multiple crises in 2021 is FASCINATING.

[Andrew Dessler @AndrewDessler]

Why is Texas electricity both unreliable and expensive?

Let me tell you about some new research by my grad student, Jangho Lee.

A 🧵:

[BRIDGES @WEFNexusUM]

Fun visual of how hydraulic changes alter sediment transport!

Geomorphology of a river: what happens when you install a dam or a weir and how the sediment transport changes [full video + full explanation here: https://t.co/cjyB0kqwm4]

[BRIDGES @WEFNexusUM]

@thatsMohrlikeit I am so excited! I want people to be happy and safe here! I want kids to go to school and parents to feel comfortable.

[BRIDGES @WEFNexusUM]

Field work in Montana means no matter what month it is, preparing for sleet is not an unreasonable precaution.

Only 2days left of #BiGWeek 🥲 Today's theme is #GeoSustainability.

Geoscientists are critical to delivering the @UN Sustainable Development Goals #SDGs, but how?

Groundwater modeling!

[BRIDGES @WEFNexusUM]

Yes, yes, interdisciplinary projects are super fascinating, but can we all just pause and reflect on the frustration of trying to reconcile various preferred coordinate systems into a single project?

[BRIDGES @WEFNexusUM]

Sci Comm skill development is a huge component of our program. Training brilliant systems-based thinkers to tackle some of the wickedest problems is amazing, but teaching them how to communicate and engage different audiences affected by those problems is *chef kiss*.

[Lee Constable 🔥 @Constababble]

Scientist: People should learn critical thinking and read my actual researched perspective so they will understand and trust this science!

Science comms researcher: That's funny because I know you haven't read *my* research on why that won't work.

Climate change and soil biogeochem and agriculture! @Svetlan63979109 this seems like an useful parameter for climate analogues!

[Mubaraq Olarewaju Abdulwahab @Mubaraqlanre]

My name is Mubaraq Olarewaju. I'm a 2nd year MSc student in soil biogeochemistry and global change. My MSc thesis is focused on the quantification of full GHG budget of an agricultural field using Eddy Covariance and Chamber techniques.
