My team is presenting at AGU this year! Come check us out at the "Accelerating Impact: User‑Driven Earth Observation Solutions from the Satellite Needs Working Group" session. 🛰️🌎⚒️ (I'm also accepting AGU attendance tips. I'm already overwhelmed by the agenda.) studio.m-anage.com/agu/agu26/me...

Aquarium Friday 🦑 I’ve been out for a few weeks and the Aquarium has some new residents. This black sea nettle can grow to be over 15 feet long! 🪼
Tomorrow I’ll be speaking at NASA JPL’s OPERA Stakeholder Engagement Workshop 🛰️ Come check it out (in-person or online)! 🔗 www.jpl.nasa.gov/go/opera/ope...

🦑 Aquarium Friday! 🪸Today we are talking blue coral, which means we’re talking Okinawa, C. Anne Claus, and the concept of “conservation-near”! 🛰️ IMO, this is an especially important lens when your work (like many of ours) involves a lot of remote sensing and mapmaking from far, far away.
Aquarium Friday! 🦑 Today, we talked about how smuggling fish is not a very cool thing to do, and about how there aren’t any alligator gar at Texas Roadhouse. That’s my bad!
This article on the NASA Science website discusses our work in EPA Region 1 to automatically detect Clean Water Act violations using remote sensing and GIS tools -- as well as two other use cases for DIST-ALERT, my favorite dataset. #gischat + #eochat + ⛏️ + 🧪 🔗 science.nasa.gov/missions/lan...

Aquarium Friday! 🦑 (A stingray emoji would be really cute…) This week, one of our leopard whiprays was especially interested in interacting with guests. You can really see the size difference between the whipray (~10 feet long) and the other rays in the exhibit (~2 feet) in this photo.
Aquarium Friday! 🦑 The Aquarium has a new resident since I was last here — Astoria, a young giant Pacific octopus. She’s not quite as tiny as Tako was when he got here, but still has a lot of growing to do! ❤️
Another one! #gischat Dark ships are vessels that are not broadcasting AIS signals. Using 2025 data from @globalfishingwatch.org, this dashboard shows which protected areas have the most dark ship traffic. 💻 bit.ly/4uX94Ic
Eleanor 🌎🛰️🗺️🌲🌊@ellaonearth.bsky.social · 4mo agoHaving some fun making quick ArcGIS Dashboards today! This one is looking at land disturbance alerts in the critical habitat of our once-neighbors, Atlantic Salmon 🐟 These guys have been extirpated through most of New England because of human infrastructure development. 💻 bit.ly/4ebXxNY

🚨 Parents: If your teen's texts are full of mysterious acronyms, don't panic, there's a good chance they're really just talking about fish, clean water, and free-flowing rivers. Check out our handy translation guide to see what they’ve really been saying!
Aquarium Friday! 🦑 Ahead of World Ocean Day this Sunday, the New England Harbor exhibit is almost complete. I met this cool sea cucumber who quickly joined my list of top ten Aquarium gallery residents.
We're starting in 20 minutes! Our opening lineup includes: @adamsobel.bsky.social Jen Kay (UC Boulder) @zacklabe.com @ametsoc.org @drjeffmasters.bsky.social @solilyquy.bsky.social Nadir Jeevanjee (NOAA GFDL) Abby Swann (UW) Join us here: wclivestream.com/watch

Per @nstewwx.bsky.social, that loud boom in greater Boston may have been a meteor! You can see an anomalous flash in the GOES-19 animation below. Satellites are cool. For Earth, from space. ☄️🛰️🧪
More Clean Water Act fieldwork photos incoming! We were in Vermont and Rhode Island for the past couple of weeks, and were lucky enough to have (mostly) gorgeous weather. ☀️🌊🛶🧪
This Public Service Recognition Week, we celebrate public servants—including federal scientists—who uphold scientific integrity every day. When decisions are guided by evidence, not politics, government works better, and the American people are safer, healthier, and better served. #PSRW2026
Aquarium Friday! 🦑 Last week was school vacation week, Earth Day, and North Atlantic Right Whale Day! The Aquarium was super busy and the weather was great, getting us all excited for summer.

Aquarium Friday 🦑, and I got to see 3 of my favorite aquatic noodles — Wilson the anaconda, and Thomas and Marie the moray eels. (Only one video per post here, so Thomas and Marie will be below 😉)
We got to take the Streamflow Duration Assessment Method training in North Carolina this week! Got some beautiful spring weather and met a lot of critters 🧪🌱🐸🦎
Many of us don’t work directly in space science, but we were inspired to become scientists by NASA. Today was an inspirational day, and I hope Artemis II galvanizes the public to recognize the importance of having a strong science program for our identity, not to mention our security and prosperity.
Aquarium Friday! 🦑 Huge news — we got a SECOND gar skull. The original is named Yorick, so we’ll have to keep with our “famous skulls” theme for the baby.
