Great turnout at Rocky Mtn NP today! Proud to be a Coloradan!

Zack is a top-tier climate scientist and data visualization wizard. This did not need to happen.

Sending all the love to my old office of Alaska Pacific River Forecast Center and Anchorage NWS coworkers, you deserve better

We’re losing NOAA which means we’re losing 😞🌡️

Cryosphere friends - do you know of papers that describe circular or concentric or radially symmetric crevasse patterns in glaciers due to ice surface lowering from an englacial or suglacial cavity or jokulhlaup? 🧪⚒️❄️

Back in the office full time, at least I have a disco candle to help me focus 🪩

It’s not hyperbole to say that American science is being destroyed before our eyes.

Were you fired from the Department of the Interior, U.S. Forest Service, NOAA, or Power Marketing Administration? Tell @naturalresources.bsky.social @rephuffman.bsky.social @altnps.bsky.social @altusfs.bsky.social @altnoaa.bsky.social @fedworkersunited.bsky.social @fedsagainstdoge.bsky.social

King Musk fired Arkansas NPS Ranger Stacy Ramsey. And thousands of other patriotic civil servants, who among other things, save people's lives. @altnps.bsky.social #holdtheline #coup #resist www.facebook.com/stacy42/post...

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my f*cking firing. I make $50K a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.” A federal employee

As an emergency manager - the cascading impacts of firing a bunch of federal employees, whose positions were each created specifically to fill an identified gap in service to the American People... This is a shortsighted decision that will have cascading impacts for generations.

This is fascism.

Dear federal scientists: If you have been affected by the probationary firings and would be willing to speak with Science, please reach out to me by email ([email protected]) or on Signal. We can guarantee annonymity.

Several colleges of mine were let go today and their knowledge, work ethic, and charisma will be greatly missed. I’m a term employed currently and just met 10 years of service with the federal govt, I fear I’m on the chopping block soon. Please use your voices to bring light to these atrocities.

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

We collectively haven’t been taking the plans laid out by Project 2025 seriously enough. They want to destroy NOAA so people won’t know that climate change is happening. It sounds stupid and alarmist if you haven’t been paying attention.

Re-sharing this recorded stream from before Nov 2024 election in which I describe why the National Weather Service is such a unique & indispensable public utility, history of efforts to dismantle it (including present one), & what's at risk if we lose it. www.youtube.com/watc...

Great day at the Berthoud snow site! Depth is right around 1-1.2 meters.

January 2025 has the second highest global average sea surface temperature (SST) on record (2024). This despite the ongoing, and strengthening La Nina. Truly remarkable - in a scary way. 🔥

Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Chappell, and Sabrina are the queens getting me though the past 2 years… I mean weeks 🫠

While everything is being torn apart around us, at least we get to see Doechii celebrate her Rap Album win by celebrating Black women and watch Chappell sing a song about the radical joy and freedom of gay bars and witness Beyonce win Best Country Album after everything they put her through

Anthropogenic Global Warming, Landslides, & Avalanches 🧵 “The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change warned that warming temperatures have destabilised mountain climates, leading to more avalanches, melting glaciers and more intense storms.” www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldvi...

I came across a post of a repost of a screenshot on deliberate information overload and finally tracked down the source: www.threads.net/@itsjennifer... It's a sobering, terrifying, yet likely necessary read. We can't do everything. But enough of us working toward 2-3 good things might be enough.

We need commercials for major academic papers the way they do movies, with the quotes and music and all. "Terrifying" "You won't sleep for days." "Shook me to my core" www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Officially broke up with my X (Twitter) :)

I've made the decision to make Bluesky the primary home of the Hydrology Paper of the Day project. Welcome to everyone on this website: to those I know, and to those I do not know, it is good to be here.
