Carbon tax is back, baby!
Excited to share some new #clumped #isotope bond reordering results just published in EPSL and led by Nico Kueter & Nathan Looser @eth-eaps.bsky.social. Come for the high-precisino reordering kinetics, stay for the beautiful FTIR maps!

Reminder, three more days to apply for our *two* fully funded PhD positions on tropical African biogeochemistry! @eth-eaps.bsky.social @usyseth.bsky.social @draketw.bsky.social @johansix.bsky.social
Very happy to see our @agu.org @jgrbiogeo.bsky.social paper on greenhouse gas emissions from Congo lakes published! Following up from @draketw.bsky.social's companion paper last week. With @johansix.bsky.social et al.

A big reason we have an oxygenated atmosphere is because there is a lot more pyrite burial than pyrite oxidation (which wasn't always the case). 🧪⚒️

Two major humic lakes in the Congo Basin are emitting ancient carbon from nearby peatlands into the atmosphere, reports a study in Nature Geoscience. These findings challenge the prevailing understanding that CO2 emissions from pristine humic lakes are derived from modern, rapidly cycling carbon. 🌍🧪

Lake Mai Ndombe is supersaturated in CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$, CH4 ${\text{CH}}_{4}$, and N2O ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}\mathrm{O}$, with outgassing fluxes of 375 ± 32 Gg C yr−1, 623 ± 136 Mg C yr−1, and 223 ...
Carbonate clumped isotope (∆47) thermometry is a powerful tool to reconstruct paleotemperatures. However, episodes of heating or cooling can alter ori…

Kick off your morning with a very nice write up in Mongabay about our recent Lac Mai paper. @johansix.bsky.social @jordonhemingway.bsky.social @saegroupethz.bsky.social

In case our short communications paper was too long 😆, you can now read Research Briefing about our recent study showing aged carbon outgassing from Congo lakes!

Very excited to announce *TWO* fully-funded PhD positions starting this summer focusing on greenhouse gases in the peatlands of the Congo Basin! Both positions are joint between my group in @eth-eaps.bsky.social and that of @johansix.bsky.social @usyseth.bsky.social. Come join us!
Nature Geoscience - We revealed that carbon dioxide emissions from the Congo Basin’s largest humic lakes partially originate from millennia-old peat. This discovery identifies a pathway...
A recent study reveals that lakes in the Congo Basin are releasing ancient carbon from peatlands. Read more in my latest for @mongabay.com
Across the central Congo Basin lies a bastion of carbon that scientists are just beginning to understand. First mapped only about a decade ago, the Cuvette Centrale peatlands are the size of England…
Advancements in modeling, proxy integration, geochronology, and clarity on the nature of Paleoproterozoic glaciations are essential to improve understanding of the Great Oxidation Event, according to ...
