Invertebrates like bees and butterflies are declining worldwide, but Australia lacks long-term monitoring to track the scale of the problem. Without it, we can’t respond effectively. Until then, citizen scientists play a key role in filling the gap 🐝🧪 theconversation.com/spring-air-i...

Vertical rows are the agrivoltaic winner! “The vertical panels produce slightly less electricity—but with higher value, as generation peaks coincide with morning and late afternoon demand…The crops don't seem to mind the presence of solar panels and they like the wind protection they provide.”

Microbiome sequencing has come so far in 2 decades. In my PhD— I used TRFLP…. am now doing long read sequencing of entire soil metagenomes! This review was great fun- thanks Gitta Szabó @emileyeloe-fadrosh.bsky.social Tanja Woyke of @jgi.doe.gov www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Is it Christian to publicly call for the murder of all homeless people? That's what Brian Kilmeade did on Fox a week ago. He still has his job.

If you didn’t know, Mehmet Oz has a financial stake in the company iHerb which sells: folinic acid supplements (folinic acid = leucovorin) The lies about Tylenol, autism, and this “treatment” are ALL part of their grift.

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

We can protect California's forests from megafires. Last month, I visited part of the Sierra Nevada that burned in 2021. In unmanaged areas, most trees died. But where land managers had thinned trees and conducted prescribed burns, nearly every tree survived. These photos show the difference.🧪🌿🌎

new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity. "To be clear, men wouldn’t be posing as ICE agents and assaulting women if ICE didn’t exist."

they’re putting Kimmel back on the air. I would now like to see the same amount of outrage for the firing of professors for their statements

The @washingtonpost.com story on Tylenol & autism leaves out a MAJOR 2.5M sibling-controlled study of children in Denmark, which "found no evidence that acetaminophen use during pregnancy was associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD or intellectual disability." jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

We just published a paper that shows including lateral flow of soil moisture matters for climate once you get down to km-scale modelling of the land surface. More and more of our work is at these scales so we need to start including processes like this. 🧪 hess.copernicus.org/articles/29/...

Went to the Andy Goldsworthy retrospective & it feels full of ancient magic. Ended up having a long conversation with someone about the books of Rosemary Sutcliff which are imbued with the same deep sense of the past…

Interesting findings from @fdiniandreote.bsky.social & colleagues: 🌱 Plants use underground fungal highways to share defense signals. CMNs transfer jasmonic acid from infected → healthy plants, reshaping rhizosphere microbes (like Streptomyces) that fight off pathogens. Read more👉

A unique partnership between an artist and a botanist has resulted in an old rail corridor in South Australia becoming an eucalypt forest.

Nowhere on the Fox News front page is there anything about the 24 y/o rural Pennsylvania white man, Matthew Ruth, who ambushed and killed 3 police officers with a suppressed AR-style rifle and tactical camo. Instead, the top story is about AOC giving a speech.

That was fast. This is also why you don’t surrender to autocrats - you fight them and beat them.

1/At Macquarie Uni we are losing 50% of our units in my faculty. This is on top of cuts in 2020. We estimate by next year my faculty will be teaching 80% fewer subjects than pre Covid. Disciplines being cut do not have declining enrolments. @jennaprice.bsky.social @michaelwestbiz.bsky.social

It's not all about PFAS: metal(loid)s are associated with physiological and metabolic changes in motorbike frogs (Ranoidea moorei) from conservation significant wetlands in Perth WA. Great to see this paper out, a big effort led by @lettsgetsnakes.bsky.social. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S... 🌐🌏
