Introducing "TEXAS" — a PSM for #TEX86!
Culture & mesocosm data constrain T response above 30°C. Ring Index brings culture/mesocosm GDGTs into agreement with coretops. Not linear, not exponential — the T–GDGT relationship follows a logistic S-curve.
Preprint: tinyurl.com/2kfadt9p
Stay tuned!

One of the things that makes this Fellowship special is that unlike NSF fellowships it is open to non-citizens, with the aim of retaining climate science talent in the US. The furlough creates significant problems for non-US postdocs in how it complicates visa status 😳

The Secretary of Commerce's new policy requiring his personal review of all NOAA contracts over $100,000 is directly harming American science. 🧪
How do I know? Because this morning, twelve of America's rising leaders in climate science (including myself) were furloughed.
