New paper out! "Patterns and drivers of Holocene moisture variability in mid-latitude eastern North America." Some of the best data-model agreements yet... the melting of ice sheets and changes in insolation were major drivers of changing rainfall patterns. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Ever wondered how reliable species distribution models (SDMs) are in the face of climate change compared to more mechanistic approaches? We did too, and our results are now published in Ecology Letters ⏬

See that big pine? You own that tree, and billions of other trees on public lands. The trump kleptocracy will overharvest, mismanage, and steal our forests. Our land needs care from highly trained people, but they are being fired. We have to stop them. We need to force congress to act on our behalf.

Happy International Day of Women in Science. The National Science Foundation’s list of flagged words includes both “Women” and “Female.”
Worried about losing access to US federal data that may go off-line, or already is? You’re not alone—but duplication isn’t the answer.
Many ongoing efforts have already archived key datasets and many more are ongoing. Check out these existing resources and, if you can, support their work. 🧵
I think this is my favourite report cover of all time. Any others?
I know this is kind of a dumb question but what should I say when contacting representatives? Is there some boilerplate language available?
