My yearly plea to please don't coerce grads by making their offers expire before April 15th! Your deadline becomes everyone's deadline. Students need time to make a major life choice, and advisors need time to cobble funding together. April 16th is the time for ultimata

Early doors, but this is ridiculous and ridiculously encouraging. A long way until we've got heights, but my god that backscatter!!! If anyone needs me, I'll be processing data until November.

Want a real method test? Let @lin_peirong run it globally. No hedging, no excuses! @CraigBrinkerhof geoBAM still strong, plenty for #SWOT to improve on This is the limit of optical widths-> discharge without @Dongmei_Feng global assimilation

@uncglobalhydro @TedLanghorst @FreshEyesonIce @ckluetmeier @UNCResearch Why did you build the sensors beneath the ice? Surely it would have been better to build and then install :)

Here are some better photos of what it was like to visit real mountains and their rivers! Featuring Dhaulagiri, Machapuchare, Annapurna I, and Himchuli

Goodbye Nepal! I have redefined 'mountain' now. I'll upload photos from my camera after I return!! This doesn't do it justice. Also, so so many ideas about rivers......

#SWOT gotta do it right and add the photo! two decades of work crammed in that carbon faring on the top. Even as a gregarious person, I am still stumped as to how to describe the experience of watching that happen in person.

The #SWOT launch was the most incredible thing I've ever seen. No hyperbole. I didn't take any pictures but they wouldn't have done it justice. @uncglobalhydro and Toby did great on live TV. Now it's time for us to get to work on what we've prepped for a decade
