Evil Dead Burn is probably one of the most beautifully shot films that came out this year.

Random thought: Green Day’s “21 Guns” is still the ultimate anti-war emo song. It just captures the 2000s zeitgeist, that curious mix of angst and exhaustion from late-stage capitalist chaos. These words rock: Did you stand too close to the fire / Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone?
Spot-the-cat challenge but it’s a giveaway
Q: How much do dams alter river temperatures in the US? A: Quite a lot, according to Landsat data Check out our new paper in Science Advances: Satellite observations reveal widespread alteration of river thermal regimes by US dams doi.org/10.1126/scia...
Interesting and a little counterintuitive: shallow coastal urban flooding is exacerbated by paved surfaces, sure, but severe flooding mostly from inflow from surrounding rural areas to flattest, lowest spot in local topography: the urban area! Xu GRL agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...
Significant Rural Contributions to Severe Coastal Urban Flooding Through Flow Connectivity
Multi-scale Earth system modeling framework can capture compound flooding dynamics at actionable scales (i.e., 30 m) Severe urban flooding zone is significantly controlled by topographic factors ...

link.springer.com/article/10.1... It’s out! We’ve written a paper about volcanoes 🌋 in the movies 🎥! As well as the usual lava-based faux pas we’ve asked how well they do at recreating eruptive cycles, depicting human responses and what volcanologists can learn from compelling storytelling!
Mayhem, magic and dangerous myths? Volcanoes on the big screen - Bulletin of Volcanology
We examine the extent to which movies that prominently feature volcanoes and volcanic eruptions reflect the reality of eruptions and eruptive crises. To do this, we develop an interdisciplinary method...

One of the quiet bright moments of lockdown was Sam Neill serenading us on the ukulele. This type of tenderness feels rare nowadays, how lucky we were. Thank you for everything. ❤️❤️❤️
Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪
Really happy to share my new article, coauthored with students, “Working (around/within/against) prior appropriation: Diverse hydrosocial practices to secure water for rivers” in Journal of Political Ecology. Been trying to put together these ideas for a long time. #geosky #geography #water
Working (around/within/against) prior appropriation: Diverse hydrosocial practices to secure water for rivers
Water scarcity in the Western US, through the lens of political ecology, can be understood as inextricably shaped by power dynamics, governance structures, and legal practices of resource allocation. ...

Human-driven sea-level rise has quadrupled the frequency of extreme coastal sea-level events since 1900, according to a study in Nature Climate Change. The findings suggest that climate change has already altered coastal flood risk. go.nature.com/4v1eH89 🌎🌊🧪

Ms. Rachel: As the American Academy of Pediatrics says, there is no safe amount of time for a child to be in detention. The Dilley immigration detention center must be shut down. We need to end the cruel policies of family detention and family separation.

New paper out today in Nature Water! We examine how changes in the *width* of the streamflow hydrograph affect water allocation among junior and senior water users. Paper: www.nature.com/articles/s44... No paywall: rdcu.be/fgfl5 @natwater.nature.com
No actual scissors or glue involved 😉 – meteorological reforecasts can be post-processed and combined into long continuous time series, suitable for hydrological simulation and flood estimation, here using ~10'000 simulated years at hourly resolution. Paper in NHESS: tinyurl.com/2fu7uzsp
