PhD Update: New Autosampler Setup in the Field!
Exciting Progress in the Field! This September, I finally set up my new evaporation-proof autosampler in my research catchment—and I’m thrilled to report it’s been running smoothly for over a month! This setup is a game-changer for stable water isotope research, as well as other water studies that rely on high-precision sampling. Currently, the autosampler…

Sprinkling Experiments
In May, we ran sprinkling experiments on a hillside in Freiburg to observe how water moves beneath the surface during storms. We used special “heavy” water (Deuterium) to trace its path through the soil. At the final Watson Cost Action project conference, I shared our first findings: water traveled through the soil in just 20-40…
