Super fun to visit @JosephTumber at @HarvardForest and test out some of @WorkingTrees tech in an operational environment! Stay tuned for some exciting results
Had a blast hosting @HydroGeoPhys from @WorkingTrees together with the newest member of the lab, PhD student Junior Burks, at @HarvardForest

Grey pine growth is more sensitive to water supply -- esp. soil moisture -- than demand. Thanks to a v. talented undergrad, Jackie Ho, coauthors @MPDannenberg, @anto_cabon, & P. Moorcroft, and the supportive groups at @BerkeleyBiomet & @HarvardForest for their partnership. [2/2]

For those at #ESA2024 who have bought too much unopened, nonperishable food that they'll otherwise trash or leave behind, I've looked up a couple food pantries that accept drop-offs during business hours.
Closest to the #ESA2024 Convention Center: coalongbeach.org/in-kind They accept non-perishable food donations from 10-4 daily. I have a rental car and can drive food things over. What do you think, @ESA_org - can we organize people to drop off at registration by Thursday at noon?
**wild applause**
**mad respect**
