Sexism in academia is bad for science and a waste of public funding
We just published this paper in Nature Rev. Mater. (2023) today.

How do we close gender gaps in science, particularly in historically male-dominated fields? In a Perspective paper published today in @NatureGeosci, we evaluated relationships among... https://t.co/hh3JdkiOjv 1/10
#Fieldwork: @USGS & @uafairbanks researchers are collecting sediment cores from shallow parts of the Bering Sea to reconstruct past #BeringLandBridge vegetation & sea ice and primary productivity as the ice age receded ~8,000-13,000 years ago. #ClimateR_D@NSF
NEW PAPER ALERT! I am fortunate to have published a lot, but this permafrost paper and review is really special to me. Let me explain why. 1/

I'm honored and elated to be selected for this award, and so very excited to delve into this important work! A big ty to all who helped make this possible :) woohoo!
HUGE congrats to @baileycnash - awarded a NSF Graduate Research Fellowship!! 👏🥳
Bailey is so deserving, from her deep fascination with Earth's past climate to her plans to make the world a better place through (among other things) compassionate public engagement with science.
In the 1950s, CEOs were paid 20x more than the average worker.
In the 1980s, CEOs were paid 59x more.
In 2009, CEOs were paid 180x more.
Today, CEOs are paid 399x more than the average worker.
We must put an end to this rampant greed and inequality.
Please share to help save permafrost. I spoke with @NPR@rhersher about permafrost as the world’s global freezer for ancient biomass carbon, and how the #ClimateEmergency is unplugging that freezer. The future is grim without swift action. #COP27 https://t.co/DXmKjtHPcl
The first paper of my PhD was published in Quaternary Science Reviews! It's called "Younger Dryas and Early Holocene Climate in South Greenland Inferred from Oxygen Isotopes of Chironomids, Aquatic Moss, and Moss Cellulose." https://t.co/rtI147WUO8.

@ComSciConChi was a major success this year!! Thanks to all of the other organizers and the wonderful group of speakers and participants for making it an engaging weekend full of important and inspiring science communication ideas and topics. Already looking forward to CSC-Chi23!
As of today, every person & sample is BACK SAFELY from the far N and S of Greenland & (after some rest) ready to SCIENCE! Long-ago & recent warmings, droughts & eutrophication, here we come.
Well done @PetePuleo@baileycnash@mia_tuccillo @ProfMaggie @aidan_burdick@rocknmudbun!

I am recruiting, come join my research group
@CoastalECU! I am recruiting Ph.D. student(s) for Fall 2023. Our group promotes interdisciplinary, actionable, and inclusive research on human dimensions of coastal and marine systems. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
I am recruiting a PhD student for my project Constraints on Last Interglacial and Late Holocene global mean sea level project based on coastal caves, with a preferred starting date January 2023. Email [email protected] for more info.
Today marks the end of what is surely one of the worst terms in #SCOTUS history. Guns and prayer and abortion got most of the attention. But that's not all the Court did. Here are just some of the Court's bad decisions:

Do you ❤️ underdogs? Please meet Sphagnum. While vascular plants stand taller & access nutrients in the rooting zone, Sphagnum mosses have evolved into tough competitors, flinging acid and locking away nitrogen. As a result, Sphagnum store more carbon than any other plant genus.

#IndigenousCommunities are on the front line fighting the #Climate & #BiodiversityCrisis to an extent most of us will *never remotely* know or understand. A debt too enormous to ever repay.
