Discovering biological wonders of plants in the arid southwest US, monitoring plant phenology & promoting appreciation for planet Earth. Opinions are my own.

"The early bird gets the worm" or The early culm gets the shallow soil moisture. Lehmann's lovegrass (pictured at the base of mesquite shrub) is the first to show sign of unfolded leaves at @TheJornada on 2/7/2023. #phenology#drylands
As I reflect on what we've accomplished and where we are headed in 2023 (& beyond), I'm grateful for our interdisciplinary team @TheJornada in fantastic partnerships with @USLTER@USLTAR & @NEON_sci

In loving memory of Dr. Thomas Meixner
Tom was a wonderful and kind person, whose larger-than-life approach to being and doing inspired those around him and elevated the community. The world is different without him. He will be missed and loved by all. @uarizona
Happy to share our new paper on Global Biogeochemical Cycles. We link long-term satellite remote sensing observations with ground CO2 measurements to explore how terrestrial carbon fluxes shape and change CO2 seasonality. Please check https://t.co/lE041RFBRa.
I can't un-see that now. They are henceforth "Loki-cows" ๐คฃ๐คฃ #Criollo#MCUcows
"With their Loki-style horns, the Raramuri Criollo are cousins to the Texas Longhorn, which grew larger as they evolved alongside commercial English Angus production" https://t.co/Ee85RiE2XW
