We are so excited to share the results of this work! Annalise Guthrie’s hard work demonstrates how the loss and regeneration of deep roots can change the way deep soils are structured at a continental scale. This was such a joy to work on! @agu.org

I’m old enough to barely remember the Reagan assassination attempt and how folks in Sears were crowded around TVs when the news hit.

I get that the college roster is big enough that 0-99 might not be enough, but how does this happen. Also, like 9 must be different from 09, right?

What mechanisms underlie near-universal export patterns of dissolved carbon from land to rivers?

Reactions at different depths regulate their directionality (+ or -); subsurface flow paths control strength

RFK Jr. taps his top deputy, Jim O’Neill, to be the new CDC director. Both men appear to wear skinny ties from Otaa. Otaa's ties are made in China from microfiber, a kind of plastic that, under the right conditions, can migrate to your balls.

A photo of Jim O'Neil getting sworn in by RFK Jr. You can see a close-up of his tie.

The same tie on Otaa's website. The site shows the tie is made from 100% microfiber.

The label for Otaa'a ties. It says "Designed in Australia."

The back of the label. It says "100% Microfiber. Hand Made Made in China"

NEW: RFK Jr's purge of CDC leadership isn't shaking Democratic Gov Jared Polis' enthusiastic support of Kennedy to lead America's health policy. Today, Polis praised his collaboration with Kennedy, saying "We hope to work on making America healthier." #copolitics

I don’t shop at Temu, and think it and things like Shein are symptoms of a larger problem, but “Temu tax” is sitting right there to use as a talking point

On Friday, the U.S. is ending its de minimis rule that made it easy for cheap goods to reach consumers. The change will affect roughly 4 million such packages processed each day.

What will the end of the 'de minimis' rule mean for U.S. consumers?
