#FieldworkFriday y'all!!!

Closing out winter break with a quick lap around Coler!

You won't want to miss these seminars! Recordings of past seminars are also available and make great teaching and lab meeting discussion material.

Big shout-out to Ashleigh Kirker for her going away gift!!! (I LOVE working with folks in front of a white board...but apparently not everyone in my lab does!) We're going to miss Ashleigh, but we're also excited to see what she does in her new role at VT FREC!

The correlation coefficient fully characterizes the relationship between two features only in the case of a bivariate Gaussian distribution, where it captures both the linear dependence and the strength of the relationship. When I teach this, I show students what this looks like

Applications for the 2025 Summer Institute are closing soon, so apply by January 12! We're wanting graduate student fellows to join the 2025 National Water Center Innovators Program Summer Institute to be held June 9 - July 25. 🌊👉 cuahsi.org/summer-institu…

Happy First Day of the Semester Y'all!!! Friendly reminder to everyone teaching -- turn off your mic before going to the bathroom! (And no...I've never done this!!!)

Salt is essential to keeping our roads and walkways safe when it snows. But when salt is washed off the roads, how does it impact nearby microorganisms? Read about a recent UA System Div of Ag study on it at aaes.uada.edu/news/road-salt…. Bumpers College Shannon Speir, PhD The Speir Lab

Today, the USGS released the National Water Availability Assessment, which integrates info on water quality, quantity and use to provide a comprehensive view of water availability. Visit the Key Findings Interactive Website to learn more: water.usgs.gov/vizlab/water-a…

NEW REPORT 📃- PFAS measurements from 280 streams in Pennsylvania were used to estimate the effects of PFAS on fish at those sites. Potential effects were predicted at more than 110,000 stream reaches.

📢Editor's Pick📢 A new study in Chile shows how small differences in rock type can drive large differences in erosion, vegetation, and river networks, illuminating the role of mineralogy in shaping landscapes. Learn more in AGU's Eos: eos.org/editor-highlig… #AGUPubs #Chile
