- The USDA postdoc fellowship is back! If you're interested in studying eutrophication issues in working lands, let's write a proposal together. Check my lab webpage for how to get in touch (ecostoich.weebly.com/join.html).

- Reposted by Jess CormanIt's over. Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut. www.dailynebraskan.com/news/adminis...
- A terribly sad day. After hours of testimony to the contrary, the Regents could not find the will to support Nebraska. Our Earth and Atmospheric Science, Stats, Textiles, and Education Admin programs are gone. Along with the faculty and their creativity, knowledge, and passion. Sorry, students.

- Lots of folks out to support UNL Earth and Atmospheric Sciences. The department is slated to be cut - a decision that would mean Nebraska would loose its only meteorology degree program (let alone the faculty and students). 🤦♀️ eas.unl.edu
- Research by my former PhD student, Daniel Gschwentner, on how grassland wildfires impact lakes is now live in Ecosystems: doi.org/10.1007/s100... Wildfires are contributing to P loading in lakes, but lakes are N-limited so that P is likely not being processed by algae. DM if you need access.
- What if we all just added as many of these words as possible to our proposals to see what happens? Better yet, squeeze them into empty spaces, but change the text color to white…
- Sampling the Niobrara River is one of my favorite parts of being a limnologist in Nebraska! Cool, clean waters, fascinating biodiversity, and beautiful scenery.
- Congratulations to my first PhD graduate, Dr. Gschwentner!

- Congrats to @unlincoln.bsky.social’s Sherri Fritz on her election to the National Academy of Science!!
- I spoke with a university administrator last week who said “NSF is fine. Don’t worry.” No, NSF is not ok. Are other universities responding better? What is your dept or uni doing to support its faculty, staff, and students?
- A stunning sunset reflecting on @lakesuperior.bsky.social, viewed from the North Shore. #LimnologyVacations
- Need an inspiring story of #NSF leadership? Look towards the former BIO AD. From starting the Graduate Research Traineeship & the Research Coordinated Network, to the National Plant Genome Initiative, Dr. Mary Clutter was a leader among leaders.
