@hydrochrista.bsky.social @domciruzzi.bsky.social, and I asked hydrologists across the country for their syllabi so we could investigate how instructors were teaching hydrology courses and think about the future... Here’s what we found + suggestions agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

Happy new year! Women Advancing River Research (WARR) 2026, featuring woman scientists from around the world. 3rd Thursday each month, 11 – 12 noon US ET Pls spread the word. Register: psu.zoom.us/meeting/regi... @waterbarnes.bsky.social @agu-h3s.bsky.social @aguwaterquality.bsky.social

Happening this morning! Run don’t walk to room 228-230 to hear @zhaozhechen.bsky.social talk hydroclimate-ET synchrony!! @agu.org

Calling fans of temporary waters! We invite you to submit an abstract to our ASLO-SIL special session "SS015 Drying waters: the science and management of temporary aquatic ecosystems". More details at www.aslo.org/aslo-sil-2026/ Deadline 251125 @ryanmburrows.bsky.social @kuglerovastripe.bsky.social

Happening tomorrow, 11/17, 11 am Eastern!

Looking forward to talking non-perennial streams with MZ tomorrow! She'll do an overview of all of the great synthesis work in the NPS literature in the last ~5 years, and I'll do a deep dive on the organization of the Aquatic Intermittency effects on Microbiomes in Streams (AIMS) project! Join us!

Teach hydro modeling? Want to introduce modeling in an intro class? Check out this web-app, activities, and code (in case you want to spin off your own).. Thanks @jansei.bsky.social for working with me on this, which was inspired by his HBV-lite teaching software! dx.doi.org/10.1002/hyp....

Wrapping up your PhD? I’m planning to hire a postdoc in the next few months (start date flexible). Will start formally advertising soon, but you heard it here first!! Possible research topics include - critical zone hydrology, agricultural water quality, SW-GW interactions. Reach out if interested!

Recently, all the AAAS Science & Tech Policy Fellows at EPA were terminated from our positions with little notice and for no clear reason. This effectively ended a partnership that had been going since 1980 and which had brought hundreds of scientists to the EPA as fellows, many of whom stayed. 1/7

Coastal Massachusetts in August? Sure! Apply to attend our CUAHSI-sponsored workshop on stakeholder-informed spatial modeling for hydrologic sciences. Let me know if you have any questions! www.cuahsi.org/workshops/st...

Hydrology Paper of the Day @margaretzimmer.bsky.social on how subsurface geology influences discharge and transport processes in two headwater catchments of the Diablo Range, California affected by wildfire: sedimentary and mélange lithologies, and understanding spatiotemporal DOC export.

#CriticalZone #research

Pleased to announce my lab will soon be hiring a postdoc! Join an interdisciplinary group working on ecosystem change following the last glacial maximum in southeast Alaska. Substantial modeling skills are a big plus! Applications due April 20th. coreykrabbenhoft.com/join-us-2/

Latest paper out of the WS hydrology lab! Here we show spatial variability in lithology is important for streamflow behavior and carbon export, but geogenic solute export behavior is similar. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Oh I absolutely can’t wait to read this new paper! The “little bit of everything” in this paper is everything I love!

Remember to apply and register for this summer's Catchment Science GRC! The best conference you'll ever go to. Deadlines coming up on March 16 for graduate students to submit their oral abstracts to the GRS. www.grc.org/catchment-sc...

Yesterday was the darkest day of my professional life so far. Many of NSF’s best and brightest people fired indiscriminately. The terms of their firing cruel. My colleagues matter, they are valued and they make a difference. I have no words. www.npr.org/2025/02/18/n...

Today’s the day!!! So excited for Lauren!!

Wednesday 2/12 at 1 PT is Lauren Giggy’s PhD defense presentation, titled “Hydrology and Biogeochemistry of Non-Perennial Streams in Coastal California.” She will talk streamflow generation processes, wildfire impacts, and more!! If this sounds exciting to you, message me for the zoom link!

Check out this thread with Fact Sheets and interactive tools to learn about NSF’s impact across the US, in your state, and at universities in your community!

A little bit delayed, but I hear it's picking up over here so sending this out into the world: our Lafayette team including Rachel Hurley (now grad student at WPI), Dave Brandes, and me put out this piece on flashiness across the Mid-Atlantic: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Our department at the University of Nevada is looking for a Chair to help lead us into the future! We are young and very research active applied ecology and environmental science department. Come join us!

Happy new year! Thrilled to announce Women Advancing River Research (WARR) 2025, featuring inspiring women on water research from around the world. 11 am, US eastern, 3rd Thursday every month. Register: psu.zoom.us/meeting/regi... Recordings 2021- 2024: www.cee.psu.edu/events/women...

It was great to chat with interested prospective students at #AGU24! If you’re looking for a graduate position or postdoc in the field of hydrology - reach out!!

‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens theonion.com/no-way-to-pr...

I’m recruiting graduate students and a postdoc to work on a range of hydrology topics- from water quality in agricultural landscapes to critical zone process (a)synchrony! Interested? Let’s chat at #AGU24!!!

Excited to be back at #AGU24 after a 4 year hiatus! I’m not presenting, but lab members are!! First up- check out Sam Motz’s poster Monday AM on transit time distribution modeling in non-perennial streams! Poster H11T-0957

@agu.org I’m not sure if it’s possible to do this last minute, but could you remove X as the default platform for posting on the #agu24 app? Aside from all the issues with the platform, we aren’t there anymore. We’re here!

Do you study or work in non-perennial, intermittent or ephemeral streams? Please take our survey to better understand the data, opportunities, and challenges of your research!

Obviously dry rivers should win! Don’t forget to vote!

Agricultural tile drains, which are widely used across the Midwestern USA, are used to reduce waterlogging. In this new Env Res Letters article, Seth Adelsperger (IU PhD candidate) et al. show that they also increase the duration, frequency, and severity of streamflow drought. #climate #geosky 🧪

Looking for a non-perennial / variably inundated ecosystem session at AGU?!? Please consider submitting an abstract to “Interdisciplinary Investigations of Non-Perennial and Variably Inundated Ecosystems” We have confirmed two amazing invited speakers Drs. Li Li (PSU) and Alex Webster (UNM).
