My collaborator @anthonydn is looking for a PhD student to work on CrustNet in 2025. This is an awesome opportunity for students interested in ecology, globally distributed experiments, and soils. Go to anthony.darrouzet-nardi.net/ for more information.
I'll be at ESA next week and am looking to connect with prospective Ph.D. students (you or someone you know!) We have funded opportunities between our Dryland Critical Zone project and the soon-to-launch CrustNet! See anthony.darrouzet-nardi.net for more details and get in touch!
Congrats to M.S. graduate Lindsey Dacey who finished a great thesis, and to Matthew Jones who finished his B.S. with honors! It has been awesome having both of these students in our lab for the last several years!

Happy faces after three hours of group presentations and discussions on our work at the Ivey orchard, perfect for the #FaceOfScience day. @SciencesUtep @DrylandCZ @anthonydn @LinMa15 @jmochoar3 @MargueriteMau
We had some great conversations with national lab folks and it was fun to say hi to @aaberhe and see her leading the pack!
Our students and faculty had a chance to share their work today with the directors of national laboratories and the @doescience. Thank you all for visiting UTEP and exploring deeper partnerships with the @HSRUalliance!

I am truly honored and thrilled to be selected as an @EMSLscience Exploratory Research awardee! Looking forward to exciting collaborations with the EMSL team! Special thanks to my advisor @anthonydn for the support and guidance! @UTEP @DrylandCZ – at El Paso, TX
👏 Introducing the fiscal year 2024 awardees of the @EMSLscience Exploratory Research proposal call!
Read about the 17 awarded projects, which are focused on aerosols, plastic pollution, methane production, and global climate change.

We are doing a search for a department chair (Biological Sciences @UTEP), and I am serving on the search committee. Please see the ad and send it to anyone who might be interested. Reach out if you have questions. utep.interviewexchange.com/j… @college
I enjoyed a one-nighter in the Gila Wilderness over the weekend. Even over Memorial Day with nice weather, once I got off the river trail I saw exactly no one. It was great! In the picture are some neat white rocks I was hiking toward.

Huge congratulations to Valeria Molina, Briana Salcido, and Viri Orona for receiving their MS degrees @UTEP @SciencesUtep. Their projects have improved our understandings of soil CO2 production and transport in natural and managed @DrylandCZ! @anthonydn
Congrats to Viridiana Orona and Briana Salcido on completing their M.S. degrees and Dr. Jane Martinez on her Ph.D.!! @UTEP @utepscience @DrylandCZ
I was really pleased to get this paper out there on nutrient dynamics at our @DrylandCZ field site! It was based on data originally collected by REUs working with Jennie McLaren and myself. There are some neat shrub island effects and nitrate stuck out as behaving differently.
From our Ecology of #CriticalZones track:
In the Chihuahuan Desert, "resource islands" around shrubs remain relatively high in nutrients & microbial activity - even during wet periods

Dryland CZ deep sonic drilling at the Red Lake Playa in @TheJornada
It was fun to be a part of the sampling team for the 100 m soil cores!

Sonic drilling at the Ag site, TX @DrylandCZ to understand the recharge during irrigation and mobility of salts, nutrients and metals. @LinMa15 @anthonydn
Prepping for drilling 50-100 m cores over the next week to characterize our dryland critical zone pecan orchard and playa sites @DrylandCZ @LinMa15 @UTEP

The McLaren lab @UTEP is searching for a PhD student who is interested in studying nutrient cycling & microbial communities in dryland ecosystems! This research is part of the Critical Zone Thematic Cluster grant @DrylandCZ Info: jenniemclaren.com/prospectiv…
If you've always wanted to be my department chair, here's your chance. utep.interviewexchange.com/j…
Yes this class has been a lot of fun, especially this periodic table geek out! Here is one more picture Mark sent me from the Viz Lab today. @DrylandCZ @SciencesUtep @UTEP
It has been fun to bridge geo-bio and co-teach a soil class with @anthonydn this fall and more so if your favorite geochemistry colleagues like Mark Engle and @LinMa15 came and talked to students about the periodic table
