Images of calcium carbonate deposits as travertine, covering leaves, as microbialites, on a macroinvertebrate, as a whiting event in a lake, and as a benthic microbial mat.

My first post on bsky to announce my first solo author paper is out in @aslo.org L&O Letters. doi.org/10.1002/lol2...
Thanks to lots of amazing conversations with collaborators and a call out on that other social media to gather info on lakes, rivers, streams, wetlands, etc with calcium carbonate.

Saros et al. found a shift from blue -> brown lakes in Greenland following hydroclimatic extremes in 2022, with implications for lake ecosystem function (light environment, phytoplankton, carbon emissions, more)

I'm hiring, two fully funded PhD positions! Come work in Umeå in Arctic Sweden, a leading place for high-latitude ecosystem ecology and carbon biogeochemistry
