Excited to share our new #Nature article published yesterday. It showed that rainfall variability is almost as important as total annual rainfall amount in determining global vegetation dynamics. Led by @a_feldman24, with Konings, @PierreGentine, @Wkolby, Poulter, and 4 others

It WAS an incredible night and I'm so humbled, overwhelmed, and grateful for those the awards recognize too - collaborators (e.g., technicians, students, postdocs, PIs), decision-makers (e.g., land managers), funders, my friends & family and the awesome @USGS. Thank you @theAGU❤️
What an incredible night for Sasha Reed of USGS at #AGU24!🌟 Sasha received the Joanne Simpson Medal and the AGU Union Fellowship! A true trailblazer, Sasha tackles pressing challenges like drought, rising temps, and energy options. Congrats, Sasha! 🙌 @theAGU

On average, the sensitivity of vegetation to daily rainfall variability is almost as large as the sensitivity of vegetation to annual rainfall totals. Wow! Check it out here... https://t.co/Ix2irlV3fw

Go @allegra_mayer! This going to be a great conversation —particularly the role of agriculture in helping to remove CO2 from the atmosphere #CDR
Join the authors of #Roads2Removal, including #LLNL's Allegra Mayer, on Oct. 28-29 at @IUONeill for a free symposium to explore how carbon dioxide removal opportunities and technologies might be effectively utilized in #Indiana. Register today: https://t.co/HLXGQIiFYH

Today I couldn’t help but be emotional as I visited the homes of my ancestors at Mesa Verde National Park. I’m grateful to those who work to ensure that these sacred spaces are cared for and respected for future generations to experience.

Reposting from one of our @ChapmanU students: Are you working in environmental research, education, social science, or a related field? I am conducting a survey to examine how environmental practitioners' emotions are impacted by climate change. https://t.co/eNndqAh5xg
