#river #CriticalZone #hydrology
How has the river corridor already been studied as an integrated system? Why is the CZ approach appropriate for river corridors? What elements of the CZ approach are lacking in river science? What opportunities would the CZ approach bring to of river corridors?
The CZ is a continuum from uplands to convergent locations. While uplands are highly represented in CZ science, they are not the only landscape element of the CZ.
We propose organizing our work along a continuum, and considering interactions along the gradient.

The #Amazon has absolutely crucial functions for the Earth's #biodiversity #climate #hydrology #carbon but is now rapidly changing! We humans are doing so at a rate that far outpaces natural processes: A thread of our Review in @ScienceMagazine

The #Amazon still covers vast areas of tropical rainforest, producing huge amounts of biomass, and concentrates at least 10% of all known plants and vertebrates on Earth. But intact ecosystems are now rapidly being reduced....(2/9)
We show that the rate of #deforestation and #degradation is much more rapid than previously throught, especially in southern Amazon. Main drivers are land-use changes, water-use changes (e.g. damming), and #climate change. These now combined are making a dangerous cocktail. (3/9)

We use a state of the art coupled 4 subglacial water representations and ice dynamics model to investigate their impact on the future contribution to global mean #SeaLevel of the #AntarcticIceSheet
The basal sliding law is the most controlling factor.

Hello! I’m Sáde Cromratie Clemons. My work involves Eco-hydrology and fluvial geomorphology. I study tree response to flooding and how that affects carbon transport and storage. #Colorado #hydrology #gueSTAAR
When floods happen, big pieces of trees can be moved into or near a stream, causing a jam of wood pieces. Wood jams are pretty neat because they can store carbon. Since floods create wood jams, flooding affects how carbon is transported through forests and rivers.
Wow! That's a crazy logjam! But where did the wood come from? That’s what I try to figure out by looking at tree rings and isotope values. Last fall and spring, I took samples from a logjam near a stream and samples from hillslope trees in the same area for reference.

How can we design robust sensor networks? How do we assess the future value of data BEFORE we invest in several years of observations? Tyler Balson & I explore this in a new pub @HydroProcesses. a 🧵

Motivation: To improve a forecast (e.g., 1-day forecast of in-stream #nitrate in the Wabash River Basin), where do we put a sensor? To benefit whom?
Does a sensor to improve city A forecast also help City B? Can we leverage for network-scale benefits? Is there an optimal?

First problem: How to assess the value of data you don't have? We used Agro-IBIS to generate a synthetic data set. We proceed to analyze these model outputs at locations of current and potential sensors.

TLDR: data science to generate interdisciplinary hypotheses
This is the paper I'm MOST PROUD OF in my career to date. A (long) thread to tell you why. 1/n

Scene: @geosociety meeting in Charlotte, NC, 2012.Brainstorming with @stefankrauseh2o about hyporheic science.
Problem: If we only measure what is in our narrow areas of expertise, we can plausibly explain our data as a function of unmeasured.
Solution: Lets do this!

Next step: Acquire funding.
Assembled a team, wrote a proposal to support many-disciplinary studies of hyporheic processes.
With support from @LeverhulmeTrust and @bIGIdeas_UoB we embarked on a series of studies to learn how to work together in truly integrated science

Image-based #water level measurement from fixed ground-based cameras. This method is based on classic machine vision techniques and requires specialized imagery, but provides visual verification not possible with other methods. There are always tradeoffs to achieve accuracy ...
#opensource software, background template, and tips & tricks are available on our website
A stationary background and camera are important for accuracy
Join us in just 45 minutes for our undergrad panel - hear from students how the transition to online education went for them. Our panelists are ready to give honest feedback to help instructors prepare for next semester. #hydrology @CUAHSI

Plus - have a question you want answered? Tweet it at me or @skuylerherzog - we'll ask the panel and report back on this thread!
What are we learning so far?
1 - Professors are trying. Even if it hasn't been perfect, the effort is noticed and appreciated.
2 - Synchronous meetings are helpful. 100% asynchronous is lonely and doesn't help students isolate key points from 'noise'

New week, new jobs thread! Check in throughout the week for early to mid-career postings for #environment, #sustainability, and #SciComm jobs in Canada. #GreenJobs
A few jobs still active on last week's thread. Take a look here 👇
Two postings from the Central Coast Indigenous Resource Alliance - Marine Program Director and Fisheries Program Director. Based in Campbell River, BC. Apply by Apr. 17. #GreenJobs ccira.ca/career/
I'm grateful for those of you who follow my work here. I love tweeting about #hydrology, but I also tweet about #environmentaljustice & the Atlantic Coast Pipeline (#ACPipeline). This 10-Tweet thread briefly explains why. 1/10
I am #Lumbee. My ancestors have lived in what is now #EasternNC since time immemorial. Most of my large, extended family lives in Robeson County, NC - the heart of Lumbee community & culture. I've written some on Lumbee+Hydrology & plan to write more. 2/10

Here's a recent @wpmagazine piece (not by me) about Lumbee people. It's a good entry point AND has stunning photos, but it's a little weak on distinctions btw race & citizenship. For deeper dives, read works of historian @malindalowery. 3/10
