Working on my lecture for next on #carbonate #diagenesis, I'm rather pleasantly surprised how much I can take from the papers Daniel Petrash and I wrote on dolomitization - notably our recent one on the interactions in the #MixingZone.

Does making #seashells 🐚 in seawater to draw down atmospheric CO₂ sound like a good #climate solution to you?
Then you’re the target audience of this blog from @mtyka explaining how precipitation of calcium #carbonate to make shells actually releases CO₂.

It's back to the #RockyIntertidal of #Washington's #SanJuanIslands this #MarineLifeMonday, this time to visit an odd #seaweed group. Coralline red #algae are distant relatives of plants, but they're named because they look like some types of #coral. In fact, this similarity is more than skin-deep. Just as coral animals often encase themselves in calcium #carbonate shells, these algae line their cell walls with the same #mineral, making them much more rigid than other #seaweeds.

My #firstpost on #Mastodon:
🌏 🌊 I am an Earth/climate scientist at the University of Arizona in #Tucson (southwestern US) focusing on the areas of #climate change, #paleoclimates, and #paleoceanography, with an emphasis on #ENSO, #monsoons, & #variability.
⚗️🐚 Our group uses #inorganic #geochemistry incl. measurements of #stableisotopes & #tracemetals in #carbonate rocks & #fossils (e.g., #foraminifera, #mollusks, & #speleothems) alongside climate #observations as well as #simulations to advance understanding of how the Earth's #climate & #oceans have changed in the past and can change in the future.
Some of my hobbies include:
🎵 #music: I am a fan of #metal and heavy music of all sorts, but tend to migrate towards #black, #death, #doom, #drone, #sludge, & #thrash. I also have a soft spot for #carnatic/#hindustani #ragas, #darkambient, oldschool-ish #hiphop, #triphop, and various forms of #electronicmusic.
🦜 #birds & #birding #photography bring me joy. Right now, I feel v lucky to be briefly back in my hometown of #Bengaluru, southern India, after three long years being able to see #oldworld birds I grew up with.
👨🏾💻 #GTD, #mindfulness, #organization, and (vs?) #producivity are things that I enjoy thinking about. Of late, I've been using #Things3, #Streaks, #Hobonichi w a #Lamy Safari, #Obsidian, #Overleaf, & #Bookends to get things done.
🙏🏽 Thanks for reading!
