Here are some useful tips 😊 youtu.be/FHvnq7uBoM8?...

Great idea actually!

Why are increment borers so expensive? The 20" chainsaw on the left is $419 but the 20" increment borer on the right is $613 😔

Looks awesome!

Just how massive are trees in the Pacific Northwest? Here's a stump at Forks Timber Museum!

So cool, thanks!

Beautiful! Which species are those trees?

I am once again pitching my romantic comedy:

- two academics start dating
- discover they are each other's terrible reviewer
- hijinks ensue

Yes! This is the Hoh Rainforest in Olympic National Park.

Can you hear the dendrochronologists in their natural habitat? 🧪

Put my #rstats skills to good use today: I helped my student fix their code that took 3 minutes to process 1 month of data but now only takes 110 milliseconds to process 1 year of data. I'm happy with little things like that :)

Nice! Barrelhouse?

Celtis occidentalis - Wikipedia

Celtis occidentalis. It's a cool tree! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celtis_...

We don't know yet, but we'll find out!

I haven't tried the fruit yet. I'm curious!

Oh that would be awesome! Thanks Justin.

Close-up microscopic view of a cross section of a hackberry tree, showing the annual rings. On the left we see some tree rings with normal sizes (1 - 3 mm in width). In the middle we see a row of 8 very narrow rings (0.1 mm or less) signifying suppressed growth.

Belated #microscopicMonday. A region of suppressed growth in a hackberry tree from a local forest in Urbana, IL. This is a piece of deadwood so we still only have a floating chronology and can't pinpoint the time yet. #dendro 🧪

I keep seeing "post-doctoral student" in the news. Dear @nytimes.com, postdocs are full-fledged PhDs, not students. Please refer to them as researchers or scientists. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/n...

Column | Carolyn Hax: Career-dazed college student wonders how people choose their jobs College student decided on time off this summer but feels pressured to take an internship and worries about falling behind.

Lots of good advice here for college students (or anyone) being pressured to decide on a career, including: "People ask [about your plans] because they are trying to connect. A great answer is: 'I’m weighing options. How did you choose?'" wapo.st/4mbNOKH by @carolynhax.bsky.social [gift link]

Three things I want to spread in the world: the love for trees, the curiosity for science, and the joy of riding bikes.

The RPubs document has also been updated. rpubs.com/ntthung/bi-c...

After our paper and code were published, an R package that we used got an update and that broke our code 🙃 Thanks to @utk-dendro.bsky.social for alerting us. I was able to identify the issue and released a simple patch. The new code repo for the paper is now available: doi.org/10.5281/zeno...

Today I have presented
"Relating Roman Rings: an open and reproducible approach to understanding provenance patterns of wood using networks" in S41 on archaeological networks at #CAA25. A great session with many wonderful network applications

On Friday, my son stayed home from school because he had a sore throat and wasn’t feeling well. He went with my husband to his office for the morning while I handled our daughter. When he came back at lunch, he was not interested in eating, saying his throat hurt too much. 1/n
