Usually I don’t talk about stuff like this because frankly it happens way too often. But not today…
As I pulled into the same faculty parking lot that I park in all the time @msstate, a white woman was coming out of my office building. Her car was parked next to the space I pulled into.

Jane Willenbring was the first to blow the whistle on sexual harassment and assault in Antarctica. Years later, women are still coming forward with tales of horror as a government investigation unfolds. wired.trib.al/cxF00iG

Dr. Diana Wall, famed ecologist and Tyler Prize recipient, began working in the Dry Valleys in the late 1980s and was a co-PI of the project from 1993 to 2016. She touched the lives of many generations of students, postdocs, and scientists in MCM LTER. She is sorely missed.
Diana Wall was a groundbreaking researcher, and a unwavering champion for soil biodiversity and the people who study it, globally. She will be sorely missed by many here at ESA Soil Ecology and beyond. source.colostate.edu/diana-w…

Back on the hellsite for a moment to say: I'm seeking PhD applicants for two funded projects in sunny Bristol and beyond: one on sensor networks and flood management (noc.ac.uk/gsnocs/projects/fl…) and one on engineering glacier sensors (link tbc). Please spread the word!

Your periodic reminder that less ice at the Arctic is consistent with a weaker jet stream that allows cold air to drift down into the Great Plains.
The frigid temps you're experiencing happen BECAUSE of a warming planet, not in spite of it.
