In May, Darby flew to Germany to spend two weeks at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena. She was hosted by Carlos Sierra and MPI Director Sue Trumbore. Working 1-on-1 with Carlos enabled Darby to make some great progress on modeling her soil 14C data from Hubbard Brook using the SoilR package. Darby gave a presentation on her work while she was there, and also met many of the other scientists working at MPI.
The GIF below shows Darby having some fun with MPI Director Markus Reichstein.
