That hour from 00.00 to 1.00 on 11 Oct? When the skies undraped the most amazing auroral curtains and beams and rays, emanating from the gently undulating corona above? That will be one of the most profoundly moving hours of my entire life. Here is one moment, frozen in time.

Check out this week’s episode with PhD candidate, Lauren Diaz! We chat about her work simulating steelhead life history diversity, how her master’s research on hellbenders led to a love of stream ecology, why education is so important to her, and more! podbean.com/ew/pb-48pgd-16aa…
Here, Lauren (a relatively light-skinned Cuban woman with dark curly hair) is in a bright pink long-sleeve t-shirt and beige waders with a grey Carhartt beanie. She is standing in the middle of a weir box in a river holding a large Chinook salmon (?) with a massive smile on her face.
