    AGU 2013 Session: Linking Microbial Communities and Biogeochemistry to Ecosystem Processes and Environmental Change

    I am co-organizing a session at this year’s annual AGU meeting in San Francisco focusing on the microbial influence on atmospheric chemistry and ecosystem processes. We are bringing together a group with diverse disciplinary backgrounds and scientific approaches to share approaches and ideas. We hope to see you there on Friday! Sessions: B51D (poster), B53D (oral), B54B (oral) -search the sessions- Section/Focus Group: Biogeosciences (B)   Conveners: Laura Meredith, MIT, predawn@mit.edu Catherine Febria, University of Maryland, febria@umces.edu Jake Hosen, University of Maryland, hosen@cbl.umces.edu Ed Hall, ed.hall@colostate.edu Description: Microbial communities are mediators of all biogeochemical cycles, controlling ecosystem responses to human-induced change. Advances in the molecular characterization of carbon and microbial communities have produced novel datasets…

    I survived the AGU 2011 Fall meeting

    I just returned to Boston after the six weeks of travelling. My two weeks in California, filled with conferences and colleagues, was quite different from the intensive and somewhat isolated period spent in India. First stop was San Diego, where I attended the 44th Meeting of Advanced Global  Atmospheric Gases Experiment (AGAGE) Scientists and Cooperating Networks at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography in La Jolla. Anita Ganesan’s instrument in Darjeeling may pave the way for the first AGAGE site in India, so the crowd was eager to hear her describe our success in deploying her instrument. Her dedicated and diligent work is paying off as she is collecting some of…
