Hydroclimate Impact Lab (HydroCLIMP)

We are looking for a new postdoc to join a collaborative team at Indiana University. We are working to reduce bias in estimates of forest carbon uptake at local to global scales. Deadline for best consideration is November 15, 2025. More details below!

Huge congratulations to Ed Cook for receiving the @agu.org Revelle Medal, which 'recognition of outstanding contributions in atmospheric sciences, atmosphere-ocean coupling, atmosphere-land coupling, biogeochemical cycles, climate or related aspects of the Earth system.'

Another successful teamwork with the best dendro-team! 🌲💚 @utk-dendro.bsky.social @utkgeography.bsky.social

🌎 We’re hiring a tenure-track Assistant Professor in climate extremes and their impacts on the environment and/or human communities.

New blog post: authors selected for the @ipcc.bsky.social Assessment Report 7: www.antarcticglaciers.org/2025/08/auth...

We are thrilled to know that our PI, Dimitris A. Herrera, has been selected as a Lead Author for Chapter 7 (Projections of Regional Climate and Extremes) of the upcoming @ipcc.bsky.social AR7 report!

Promotional graphic for the AGU25 conference session titled "B008 - Advances in Understanding Water-Energy-Carbon Interactions." It announces a call for abstracts due July 30, 2025, at 23:59 EDT. The central question posed is: "How do water-energy-carbon interactions shape terrestrial biosphere responses to global change?" Key topics include coupling of water-energy-carbon cycles, bridging scales and processes, climate change sensitivities and impacts, and applications for climate resilience. The image features headshots and affiliations of invited speakers Julia Green (University of Arizona) and Gabe Kooperman (University of Georgia), and conveners YanLan Liu (Ohio State), Justin Mankin (Dartmouth), Dan Gianotti (MIT), Flavio Lehner (Cornell), and Xiangtao Xu (Cornell). The background shows a scenic natural landscape with trees.

Please consider joining our #AGU session on beautifully complex Water-Energy-Carbon interactions with a broad scope from theory to applied science.

Invited talks by Julia Green @juliakgreen.bsky.social and Gabe Kooperman.

This is awesome!

How 'tropical waves' carry confounding clues about huge hurricanes The patterns found in the atmosphere often uneventfully dissipate, but occasionally feed giant hurricanes.

Correcting the heartwood-sapwood transition in blue intensity measurements with change point detection methods Delta blue intensity is a commonly used method to correct for the heartwood-sapwood color change in blue intensity (BI) measurements. It is based on t…

The color of tree rings—especially the blue spectrum—can be used to reconstruct past climate. But the heartwood-sapwood color change complicates this technique since it's unrelated to climate. Our new paper tackles this problem: 🧪🧵https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1125786525000505

Our recent paper on droughts in the Po River gets an Editor's
highlight and is featured on Eos! We studied 1,000 years of droughts (1100-2100) from tree rings and climate models to understand how droughts manifest in the past, present, and future.

New paper led by @prehistormic.bsky.social out today in Science Advances. Something we have been working on for awhile, nice to see it published! See Josh’s thread for more details and please check out the paper!

Same here in Tennessee.

Fantastic work done by @prehistormic.bsky.social et al. on the reconstructed NASH and implications to hydroclimate extremes for the Southeastern US and the Caribbean!

How I’m learning to navigate academia as someone with ADHD Discovering how my brain works has helped me to better understand how to find equilibrium between my academic career and my well-being, says Ana Bastos.

When I decided to openly disclose my #ADHD 1/2 year ago, early career scientists started asking me for tips & how did I reconcile (undiagnosed) #ADHD with a science career. It’s been a long learning journey and some of it is laid out here: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

New work suggests much of North and South America were drier during the mid-Pliocene, last period in the pre-industrial with CO2 levels similar to today
