Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.

In a newly published Agricultural and Forest Meteorology paper, we developed a method that successfully migrates eddy covariance based carbon flux measurements to thousands of meteorological stations. Led by postdoc Dr. Wenqiang Zhang. Check out the paper here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them. Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is. Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙

ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change. Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk: www.noaa.gov/noaa-wildfir...

Forest gain is not the mirror symmetry of forest loss. We knew this for their biophysical effects. We now also know this for resilience - the gain of the same amount of forest cannot compensate for the loss in forest resilience. Check out our new paper in Nature Ecology & Evolution: rdcu.be/d6kUI

Research suggests that deep roots are beneficial for temperate #grassland species subjected to longer periods without rainfall, when #plant-available water is lacking in shallow #soil layers but remaining in deep soil layers besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

NASA JPL chief Laurie Leshin says that over 150 staffers at the research center have lost their homes in the LA fires; the lab has set up a relief fund to help them out, which you can support here: caltech.imodules.com/controls/ema...

#JPL has so far been safe as well thanks to round the clock work of our first responders. But over 150 JPLers have lost homes that we know of so far. We are raising funds to support them through Caltech! Please consider supporting: caltech.imodules.com/controls/ema... Thank you!

While November was quite disappointing, it might be a good idea to self-comfort with reading. I chose Steven Pinker's "The Better Angels of Our Nature" as my to-read for December. Quite curing, right? #onebookamonth
