Two giants of #IsoEcol2024: a hydrologist and an ornithologist met in Saskatoon, Canada and became fast friends. Together, they discovered that bird feathers reflect local precipitation using dual inlet methods but had a hard time getting it published…

#isoecol24 = inspired. Great to meet all these amazing scientists. We will miss you Chris Stantis, PhD, but once you go SPATIAL Short Course you’re always SPATIAL. :) Jon Kuntz, PhD 🦈

#IsoEcol2024 is wrapped! Thanks to everyone who came to UNB Fredericton and contributed to an amazing week. Isotopologists truly are the best people! Safe home folks.

Is El Niño‐Southern Oscillation a Tipping Element in the Climate System? Experiments with the CESM1 model show that in a warmer climate, ENSO can lock-in into a state with high variability and nearly each El Niño is an extreme Eastern Pacific (EP) El Niño agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/20…

Fellow isotopists, I have just learned that Keith Hobson has passed away. I can’t possibly express how sad I feel. Keith was such a great person and scientist. He turned stable isotope based methods into one the most important and influential tools in ecology research. RIP Keith.

Rivers in the arid regions of the western United States can act as carbon sinks, absorbing more carbon dioxide via photosynthesis than they emit through respiration, according to a new Science study of river metabolism nationwide. The findings suggest that rivers may play a
