First time on the Blue Ridge Parkway and in the Pisgah National Forest 🍂😍

Why Is This Lake ‘Burping’?

Our research on Seneca Lake has been featured in the New York Times! Check it out! @benuveges.bsky.social @nytimes.com

Not a bad day to collect/count lanternflies!

May everyone try to channel a fraction of the empathy, care, and kindness that Jane showed to all living beings.

The world was a better place with her in it 💚

“Scientists from Cornell and SUNY ESF have teamed up to try to figure out what causes the so called 'Seneca Drums'. Part of the mystery isn't just the noise, it is also that the bottom of southern Seneca Lake are covered with pock marks, some estimated to be as wide as four football fields.”

Researchers take samples from Seneca Lake in effort to figure out what causes the 'Seneca Drums' After hundreds, if not thousands of years of uncertainty, scientists from Cornell University and SUNY ESF have teamed up to try to figure out what causes the so called 'Seneca Drums'.

We were interviewed this week by WENY— check out the article about our research! www.weny.com/story/531154...

Field work snacks just hit different

A definitely have to agree with that!

Deep water sampling on Seneca Lake has commenced! Excited to check out the gas concentrations at the bottom of the lake 👩‍🔬

Weekend nature highlights! First time seeing a copperhead in the wild 🐍

We also have towers in the Adirondacks and Hudson, comparing forest carbon fluxes to freshwater tidal marsh fluxes!

Close, Montezuma!

LOVE IT 😂

Site #2 slowly becoming part of the wetland

POV from our methane sensor 😍

We are harvesting—It feels so good to grow your own food! Now to figure out how to eat many pounds of bok choy and Swiss chard

Firefly bike ride was magical 💚

Testing out our deep water sensor retrieval system. Exciting research coming this fall in the Finger Lakes, NY!

It may be 100•F but at least it’s pretty

I saw my first indigo bunting yesterday! A much worse photo but I was so excited!

Sunset over Lake Erie, PA. No filter at all!

Quick weekend trip to the #Adirondacks. Biking to and swimming here makes it finally start to feel like summer is coming ☀️

Measuring carbon dioxide and methane in our tidal freshwater wetland! So lucky to have fieldwork in such a beautiful place 🥰

Black fly season adding a few hurdles to our eddy covariance tower maintenance 😅 #adirondacks

My Strange Kinship with a Tick - Edge Effects Maxime Fecteau uses a bite to explore tick kinship and living entangled with other species in a time of accelerated ecological degradation.

Today on Edge Effects, Companion Species continues as Maxime Fecteau explores his experience with Lyme disease & how an undesired relationship with ticks still has profound impact on his way of seeing ecological degradation, multispecies kinship, and the Anthropocene. 🕷️ edgeeffects.net/tick-kinship/

Kale sprouted! Onion seedlings planted. Friendly visit by Gene 🥰

Two more for ya! Male and female dog tick found on my pants (NYC area). Fortunately these are pretty large and were spotted quickly.

Also just can’t get over how beautiful this place is. Wetlands are incredible ecosystems

Eddy covariance tower built! Excited to measure CH4 and CO2 in our tidal marsh system 🤗

Solar panel transport out into our tidal marsh 😅
