@Max_VWDV @CamUniGeography @EarthSciCam Delighted for you what this means for the future! Wishing you exciting journeys, real and within the mind, en route to answering critical questions in this century of the geosciences. And let's keep an Act 2 together in mind.

I would like to thank the reviewers for their thorough comments, although really, I could have done without them.

SAFL grad student @MohammadaliOly1 uses a hyperspectral spectroradiometer to detect the spectral reflectance signatures of plastic. Mohammad & advisor Ardeshir Ebtehaj hope to equip drones with these sensors for quick & inexpensive detection & cleanup of plastic in water bodies.

@JamesMLea Exactly the point. There is some very good science in first-round submissions to any journal. The difference is that @MDPIOpenAccess usually provides a farce of Editorial and reviewer oversight, so it's practically a community-sourced pay-to-play blog.

Also for clarity, there is some *very* good science in some papers, but I inevitably end up reading them with an extra degree of caution and scepticism...

This is not a faculty or a research position, but it can be a very fun job if you like big experimental facilities, SAFL is a playground for the curious minds
Andy Erickson@andrewjerickson

@saflumn is hiring!! This position is a mix of Facilities Operation and Maintenance, Health and Safety, and of course, Research Support, all in a historic facility on an island in the middle of the Mississippi River with views of downtown Minneapolis. z.umn.edu/SAFLhireFOM

I hit the wrong key, my Twitter messages popped open, and this. Exploratory conversation about using ancient DNA to map past Manoomin (Wild Rice) extents in MN (my childhood home) and WI (hers). I miss you, my friend.

I don't think I've shouted to the stars loudly enough. @KerryLCallaghan dodged and weaved as I learned how to be her advisor in real time. After a postdoc at @LamontEarth with the fantastic @j_austermann, she is now Prof. Callaghan and my MSP-CHI neighbor!

I would love to hire a quality machinist for my lab -- but can't afford it. And as a professor, I encounter students who would excel in a hands-on environment. Tactile intelligence is intelligence. Spatial intelligence is intelligence.

This is important! 🙌

We're a month out from reviewing faculty applications in Sedimentology, Stratigraphy, and Earth-surface Processes @UMNEarthScience. (Think @saflumn too!) If you want to talk about the search in person, I will be at #AGU22.

What is #COP27? I don't want to assume everyone knows so let's take some time to break it down ... COP stands for Conference of the Parties and it is an international meeting of the "parties" or states that are in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)
