I'm incredible excited to share that @thatsmedelp.bsky.social successfully defended her PhD last week. Delaney's dissertation focused on hydrologic connectivity of headwater systems across the southeastern US (i.e., "Headwaters and their hollows.") #RollTide #BamaEcoHydro

Big CONGRATS to @morejam59.bsky.social for successfully defending her MS thesis today on groundwater and surface water connectivity in headwater wetlands!!!

Jasmine is headed to Boise State this fall to pursue a PhD in Hydrology.

Another great GRC Catchment Symposium in the books! Enjoyed catching up with old colleagues/friends, meeting new colleagues, and all the fun of science summer camp! #BamaEcoHydro

Grades submitted.

What a wild year! I'm grateful for my students, our collaborators, and the larger hydrologic science community. I'm also grateful for the meaningful work we're doing and everything we've been able to accomplish together.

Keep up the good fight y'all, and Cheers!

Reading one of my favorite articles today in class!!!

This is one of the best pieces of #SciCom I've ever read -- it does an incredible job of describing why our atmosphere is ~21% O2, how modern #MegaFires will (not!) impact O2 levels, and how burning #FossilFuels short circuits global C cycles!

Big CONGRATS to @kacizarek.bsky.social!!! Her new paper is out in @agu.org's JGR-B!

The paper has a little bit of everything -- N biogeochemistry, intermittent stream hydrology, concentration-connectivity relationships!

Check it out here: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Just guessing here...but the dog in question looks to be a heeler mix. If so, totally normal behavior.

At our house atleast, it's the heeler's world and we're just livin' in it!

(Although, we just got a BC pup, and she's giving the heeler a run for his $$)

Cut and pasted my citations into ChatGPT and asked it to provide a one paragraph description of my research program. Not too bad...

Got 'Does it fart' for my nieces!!!

When my wife opened the package, she thought I was researching topics 'for conversation starters next week when we visit [her] family.'

In dealing with the uncertainty of changing federal F&A rates this weekend -- I've found it useful to revisit my list of alternative careers:

) Start a bike shop, brewery, and coffee shop business

) Go back to raft guiding

) Start a homestead (and maybe sell eggs on the black market)
