Find the scientist in this picture: In the most recent episode of #CZ17O fieldwork, a snowstorm blew through the Mojave Desert while Postdoc Dr. Julia Kelson was trying to repair wires and log data at our highest elevation site in a Mojave Desert Climosequence.

The UROP Spring Research Symposium is happening as we speak. Please join us in person at the Michigan League or on Zoom(link below) to support students like Matthew Salinas who conducted research on Michigan's Glacial Landsystems. courses.lsa.umich.edu/urop-symposium/

New paper led by the @AlexisLicht on a very unique set of pedogenic carbonates!

Just finished distilling the 50th soil water sample for the #CZ17O project and… look at the soil dance in hot water! Iso Paleo Lab @naomi_levin

This graphic about where people go after college is ENLIGHTENING and probably something my dad would have cut out from the newspaper if it was in there in 2002. Andrew Van Dam washingtonpost.com/business/2022/…

Highest honors for AGU (American Geophysical Union) were announced, and again the top early career award is given to mostly men. 5 year average is only 28% women, despite >40% PhD's awarded to women for this cohort eos.org/agu-news/congr…

Coming to us all the way from our very own halls, Dr. Julia Kelson will be giving a Smith Lecture this Friday, 3:30 p.m. in Room 1528, NUB. For more information, click here: events.umich.edu/event/99109

IPL'rs got a good look at fluvio-glacial sediments in our backyard at #UM_ESGR last week (before it snowed!) with the help from an excavator to clear some of the green stuff (RIP invasive autumn olive trees). Kames, eskers, and rhizoliths, oh my!

Making your #AGU2022 schedule? First thing Monday morning, bring your coffee to posters H12R: Stable Isotopes in the Critical Zone. I'm excited to share some new work: "Triple Oxygen Isotopes in Pedogenic Carbonates Reveal the Varied Role of Evaporation in Western US Drylands"

Sarah's new paper on 17O in Peruvian lakes is a showstopper!! Highly recommend if you need convincing to hop on the 17O train or if you want ggplot inspiration.

This is a really nice contribution mapping #Cretaceous climates using #Köppen climate zones in a #Bayesian framework. A great way to visualize the effect of higher global temperatures on climate zones! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

This made for some interesting conditions for soils research! We also bagged some snow for isotope analysis Iso Paleo Lab @naomi_levin Michigan EARTH
