#Introduction

I'm a PhD candidate at the Kansas Geological Survey & University of Kansas studying non-perennial streams, carbon cycling, and biogeochemistry. Interested in ecosystem ecology, hydrology, rstats, and data viz. I’ll mostly post about non-perennial streams, aquatic ecology, fieldwork, and reproducible science.

Functional diversity of shredders, not species richness, drives the decomposition rate of leaf litter in ponds

#firsttoot Hi everyone. I am currently an MS student in the Department of Biological Sciences at Towson University. I study #streamecology, #benthicecology, and #popandcomecology. I also have a big-time interest in #statistics and #programming languages.

I have a pet mantis named Lotus and I love hiking, working out, and playing guitar.
