This short film gives soil (biocrust) the credit it deserves! Well done @KrstinaYoung
Biocrust is so beautifully portrayed in this film project I was fortunate enough to be a part of 😍 I am so grateful for the opportunity to tell a whole new audience (outdoor recreation enthusiasts!) about how amazing #biocrust is! #scicomm youtu.be/XguYw16YsDY?si=UvuX…

Here’s to all of us who don’t have anyone to watch their children if they’re sick but still make it work. And to our supportive colleagues and students.

We just posted the latest #Utah water conditions update! Have a look & learn about how the latest monsoonal moisture impacted our #water supply. water.utah.gov/utah-water-co… Pictured: Sunrise at Deer Creek State Park — a reservoir that supplies water to over 1.5 million Utahns.

Looking for a good podcast for your commute? The folks @ConstantWonder_ make a good one!
Efforts to save the June Sucker fish are bringing new life to the ecosystem of Utah Lake. In this episode, @thermokarst and @cyclientist discuss how scientists, government officials, and community members are looking out for an ecosystem unlike any other. bit.ly/cw_UtahLake

I wonder if they'd take any of my classes if I started teaching summer term?
The on-campus enrollment is probably a half dozen, but they tend to only register for the really early and late classes during summer term 🙂

Next semester my wife goes back to work and I’ll be on parental leave. As an assistant prof, I am equal parts excited and anxious. Anyone else out there who has taken a pre-tenure semester of leave have any advice? @AcademicChatter

No better way to spend the last day of classes than in the field! Thanks @LambertAusten (TA extraordinaire) for all your help this semester!
Beautiful winter morning with @cyclientist and the Environmental Soil Chemistry class learning more about the unique chemistry of Utah Lake! @BYUgeology

My birthday is next week and to celebrate I’ll be in the field all week! Hoping all our prep leading up to this pays off. Utah Lake and Bentonite Hills here we come!

Revisiting a 50 year old dataset and applying current geostatistics is fun. These images show carbonate distribution in the sediments of Utah Lake as measured in 1974. Can you guess which is the newly created version?
