High-performance computing can enable essential research that wouldn't be possible otherwise. We are soliciting proposals for the ASCR Leadership Computing Challenge to allocate time on supercomputers @ORNL, @argonne, & @BerkeleyLab for such research: content.govdelivery.com/accounts/USDOE…

🪴#rhizosphere alert: @DraSuelosMari 's new paper in @EnvSciTech revealed how different exudates released along growing roots create functionally distinct soil microenvironments that evolve over time! Thx team: @ReneBoiteau @EMSLscience @CardonZG! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Looking for a postdoc on wetland GHG fluxes? Exciting opportunity to work on a collaborative project with LLNL and USGS in the Prairie Potholes based out of Argonne National Laboratory. Link to apply in the comments. Pls share!

Getting to net zero is not a zero sum game. Theres no evidence of finite financial or political capital. We’ve got to remember it’s going to take an ENSEMBLE of approaches! (see roads2removal.org)

Another article, the same silly criticisms: 1. There is little evidence that DAC is taking capital from other clean tech 2. No one is suggesting we *only* use DAC to reach net-zero, we need all CDR 3. Cost declines are possible 4. Oxy=/=all DAC thebulletin.org/2023/12/direct…

Warning Self Promotion — I’m up for @jgi User Exec Committee this year. If you’re a JGI user I would appreciate your vote! There were no DOE Natl. Lab researchers on the committee and thought there should be. Hope to help them expand both the diversity of users & capabilities.

This Thursday is #CDR day at #AGU23! Join us for posters in the AM & then a series of talks re. opportunities to capture & durably store atmospheric CO2. Many of the #RoadstoRemoval authors will be presenting. roads2removal.org

Don’t miss my poster at #AGU23!! Untangling plant and soil responses to nitrogen limitations in a switchgrass GxE experiment. Poster B41F - 2524! Please stop by!! I’d love chat about it!

New paper 📄 @alan_knapp and I argue that co-prioritizing ecosystem services and energy using an ecologically informed, ‘ecovoltaics’ approach to solar design and operation has multiple benefits for climate, biodiversity and restoration of degraded lands. nature.com/articles/s4155…

Cover crops provide many benefits in West Texas #soil but how do they effect the #microbes that drive biochemical processes? In short, the environment selects, but the cover crop host refines. Check out our new paper in Applied Soil Ecology! @TxSoilFert sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

(1/2) Have you seen Caro Arevalo’s incredible work? "The Fungi Painting" takes you on a journey through phyla, subdivisions, and microscopic wonders of the Fungi Kingdom.

Great work by @jlw_ecoevo and @MMcDonaldSoil on leading our new publication out now in @TrendsMicrobiol!! It is a thoughtful re-evaluation of microbial dormancy and its interpretation in various field of science. Check it out here!!! doi.org/10.1016/j.tim.…

From wetlands to the Arctic, understanding Earth's systems is key to predicting how climate change will affect them and adapting to those changes. @ENERGY is providing $13.1 million for 17 new projects in environmental system science: energy.gov/science/articl…

Fellow soil microbial ecologists!! Which conferences are you attending this year?

Permafrost is different from other soils. Microbes survive at sub-zero temps for millennia. What controls the microbial biogeography and distribution of genes ? What are the strongest selective pressures shaping communities? Read our paper in @ISMEJournal nature.com/articles/s4139…
