PhD Candidate @Columbia @LamontEarth: studying ancient oceans and climates using marine microfossils. Midwest transplant, he/him 🏳️‍🌈

@SashaOceans Congratulations Sasha! This is such incredible work - amazing!

[Lloyd Anderson @lloydband]

All in all, such a neat adventure applying the tools of isotope geochemistry and microfossil taxonomy to larger questions of past climates on Earth 🌍

[Lloyd Anderson @lloydband]

My first paper from my PhD was recently published, where we reconstruct (old!) atmospheric CO2 using the boron isotopic composition of ocean microfossils. special thanks to my coauthors, reviewers, editors, and Wiley. https://t.co/eDzcQVWBRs

[Lloyd Anderson @lloydband]

In these reconstructions we targeted an interesting interval of earth history from 28 - 18 million years ago, and cross-calibrated boron isotopes in three (one extant, two extinct) species of planktic foraminifera

@Bad_mon_Beeshie @NOAA Congrats Vee!! They are lucky to have you!

[Lloyd Anderson @lloydband]

Thrilled to share that in the fall I will begin as Assistant Prof at @WilliamsMystic! Looking forward to interdisciplinary explorations of the ocean with undergrads from across the country 😃 (+ excited to collaborate w folks on foram/paleo/oceanography research + beyond!)

@hICEstory @LamontEarth Love how they’re following a little melting river

@AJacobel @DeepSeaDrifter @lauralhaynes @oceans_O2 @natumling @vince_clementi @anya_hess Not atm, but I’m very curious to see what recs others may have

@PhoebeFossil @OGG_CUBoulder @BowdoinCollege Cool job opening- this was an amazing place to spend 4 years of college and there are wonderful folks in this department @BowdoinCollege , including @coralgeochemist !

Cute fossil (fragmented) foram à la Rose’s “Heart of the Ocean” pendant (Titanic, 1997) 🔬:

@lauralhaynes Symbiotic Audi! 🤩

[Lloyd Anderson @lloydband]

Ideal lab encounter during an unnervingly hot week? A tiny fossil foram shaped like stacked ice cream scoops (Chiloguembelina spp.) :

@DeepSeaBrittany @MasonAOES @GeorgeMasonU Congrats Brittany!! 🎉

Well, I suppose this is a natural follow-up to my previous 'job list' tweet.
I'm currently looking for opportunities outside R1 academia if anyone has any leads for a PhD-level earth/environmental scientist. Open to exploring many pathways #jobsearch #earthscience #climatechange

I wrote another @_geobites blurb (with excellent edits from @tellurianite)- it was fun to dig into a paper on the terrestrial paleo side!

🌧 What connection does the #TibetanPlateau have with the frigid #Antarctica glaciers?

Ancient rainfall/#paleoclimate patterns of #Asia's magnetic mudstones may hold some answers, writes @lloydband in this #geobite, edited by @tellurianite.

[Lloyd Anderson @lloydband]

This was an intriguing paper to read and a fun summary to write- thanks @waterwings88 for the helpful edits!

Check out my short @_geobites blurb RE: @AdinaPaytan’s recent paper on Sr isotopes + the carbon cycle:

[Hadley McIntosh Marcek @waterwings88]

Sediments hold lots of "buried treasures" that can tell us about past carbon cycling!

Got back to @_geobites editing this week! I had a lot of fun reading @lloydband 's #geobite summarizing a recent paper by @AdinaPaytan and colleagues. #scicomm #sciwri

Sometimes the hallways @LamontEarth surprise you with some magic - these were only minutes apart!

[Lloyd Anderson @lloydband]

Put some virtual pen to paper again;

what else could cause the CCD to deepen over the Cenozoic besides an increase in weathering..? These modelers had an answer!

Thanks @tellurianite for the edits!
