Congrats to Dr. Jing Zhao and the NASA project team for publishing this important work! UMCES-AL Andrew Elmore JaniceSHLee

What kills me - literally kills me - is that Democratic politicians remain functionally allergic to making robust national security arguments. they are *completely fixated* on the specter of Kissinger directing the bombing of North Vietnam. the boomers just can’t. move. on.

The Republican Party of the United States, captured perfectly in one 48-hour news cycle: Trump’s adjudication by a jury of his peers is contrived nonsense, but Biden’s crimes must and will be inferred from our nonsense. This party must be discarded, for it stands for nothing.

Beyond excited to share that our NASA proposal to scope the next terrestrial field ecology campaign was selected. Looking forward to a year ahead of thought provoking and galvanizing science planning! 🧵🛰️🌍🌴🍃

The assumption here is that the Democrats did away with prayer and the GOP is bringing it back.

Two facts: Prayer and the pledge is a standard part of each day in Congress.

And, a majority of Democrats are people of faith. 50% Protestant/Catholic. 8% other faith groups.

Paper accepted in Methods in Ecology and Evolution this morning, so not bad! Great to work with Kyla Dahlin Matt Dannenberg @C_rHvG @hardimanFUSElab Aaron Kamoske Dr. Liz La Rue Dr. Carlos Alberto Silva 🌲🌍🛰 Andrew Elmore Matt Fitzpatrick Jennifer Costanza and Elske Tielens on this! Will post when online.

What started as an idea - that Black communities on the Eastern Shore, a bedrock of American history, were eroding quickly, in plain sight - turned into a master's thesis, then a film, and now a presentation I've done all over the country. Grateful for the interest!

A political consultant friend said despite polls, Dan Cox could win. A fascist-loving, election-denying, abortion-banning one-term delegate could become Maryland's governor. Make sure it doesn't happen. Vote. You don't have to love Wes to vote for him.

She had great questions, so it's worth a listen.

Interested in linkages between ecosystem function and carbon, water, and energy fluxes? Check out this new data set: High resolution phenology from Planetscope imagery (3.5 m) at 104 Ameriflux and NEON sites. Pretty cool! nature.com/articles/s4159… NEON FLUXNET_Coop @Planet

I wanted to get a better sense of the size of the clasts on the surface of Dimorphos, so I put some scale bars on the available images from NASA #DART #DART Mission
