📢Exciting tenure-track opportunity @IUBloomington. @IUONeill is looking for a colleague in the field of environmental pollutant fate and transport, focus on aquatic ecosystems and/or interface zones between terrestrial and aquatic. indiana.peopleadmin.com/postings/25499

@thiagotoyoyo 👏🏽A fila estava grande ontem p/ parabeniza-lo pessoalmente!

Conhecido por muitos como Dioguin, essa figura especial foi merecidamente nomeado com "fellow" da Sociedade Americana de Ecologia. Que demais! I believe this is a first step toward ESA incorporating many, many Latinx ecologists conducting outstanding ecological research!

This is everything.

@WalterAndriuzzi @MorrienElly Hey, so exciting you both are coming. Make sure to check the @ESASoilEcology mixer Monday evening and let's connect! Walter, there was rumor in FoCo of a sizeable outstanding balance in espresso shots at Alley Cat. Watch out at the border!

I am about to leave to #ESA24 in Long Beach. As a European I am nervous I might not know anyone (so that what it was like being a PhD-student 15 yrs ago...) any other #plant, #soilecology, #soilcarbon, #soilfauna, #soilmicrobe peeps from EU going?

Our lab is recruiting a lab manager / technician! Please consider applying or help circulate. Applications due July 10. jobs.wisc.edu/jobs/lab-manag…

@ftmaestre @MatthewBowker1 @ecology_awesome Congrats Fernando! You look great in that @IUHoosiers shirt! It was great chatting with you at EGU. All the best in the new place!

📢The ESA Soil Ecology Section is receiving: (1) Applications for Student Travel Awards: forms.gle/bdGSfasE2x3wdB… (2) Nominations for the Deborah Neher Career Award: esa.org/soilecology/aw… Both are due MAY 31, 2024. @ESA_org @ESA_EarlyCareer @theGSBI @WomenInSoilEco

Diana Wall obituary: ecologist who foresaw the importance of soil biodiversity by Richard Bardgett nature.com/articles/d4158…

@Jeffinerca @theGSBI @DianaWallSoil @sgrandysoil Sad I will miss SES this year, but three awesome students from our lab will be presenting there. Three emerging branches in @DianaWallSoil's science family tree. Show them some love @soilecol!

Come join us in beautiful central Michigan for SES. We've partnered with @theGSBI on special session to celebrate and honor @DianaWallSoil; you'll also get to hear from awadees @sgrandysoil Dr. Angela Possinger Dr. Ernest Osburn. Final reg. deadline is Friday, May 3rd!

@Sprunger_PhD @aaberhe @Jeffinerca @ecology_awesome @StevenDAllison @hormiga @nitrogenfixer And VERY well deserved!!! Congrats Christine!!

Soil Zoology: we're hiring! Two tenure-track and one postdoc positions. Taxonomy, Soil Biodivesity Data, Soil Macroecology. It comes somewhat late (deadline is 30.04), but if you're interested - write me. Details below senckenberg.de/en/institutes/…

The @IUONeill faculty also voted concerning @IUBloomington response to protests “that all students, staff & faculty who were banned from IU property for violating the new policy adopted by the ‘ad hoc committee’… be allowed back on campus immediately”: 45 Yes/3 No/6 Abstain

Vote by @IUONeill faculty yesterday regarding @IUBloomington response to recent protests was “that the new policy about the use of Dunn Meadow adopted by the new ‘ad hoc committee’…be withdrawn immediately: 56 Yes/1 No/3Abstain.

Also, join us on Tuesday for a full section on the 'Linkages Between Soil Fauna and Biogeochemical Cycles'. Excited to be part of this. meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU24/EGU24-10…

Are you a soil ecologist attending #EGU24 in Vienna and looking for a postdoc position? I will love to chat with you about the position below. Be in touch! indiana.peopleadmin.com/postings/23854 @IUONeill @theGSBI

@WalterAndriuzzi Right! Cecilia got someone to fix that.

The world loses a trully extraordinary woman, soil ecology loses a titan, and I am among the many who lose the most amazing mentor, colleague, and friend. You are deeply missed D.

We were thrilled to host 30 top-level officials from Brazil in Bloomington over Spring Break. They took their leadership skills to the next level through the IU Executive Education leadership program spearheaded by professor Claudia Avellaneda. go.iu.edu/6iIs

Periodical cicadas influence food webs and N cycling, but how do they impact soil C fluxes? Emergence holes are ~1 cm in diameter but can be spatially extensive. We investigated how the 2021 #BroodX emergence holes impact C fluxes in the eastern US. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111… 1/
