Just got my hands on this fantastic new book on #Charophytes of Europe and excited to see the most westerly dot on the distribution map of #Tolypella nidifica was from a snorkel survey i carried out on the Outer Hebrides of Scotland - over 20 years ago 😬 #MacrophyteMonday

Every day now is an important day to stand strong with Ukraine against russian agression 🇺🇦 Share this for everybody not to forget that their support is very important for Ukraine🇺🇦🇺🇦

Zelenskyy is one of the world’s greatest heroes and leaders. — That’s eating Trump und Vance alive.

One of the people fired from NOAA today is the director of the Ocean Acidification Program. That program also leads the U.S. government's effort on marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR). The destruction of American science is incomprehensible.

Regions in EU Member States, or Horizon Europe Associated Countries, can now apply for @futurelakes.bsky.social funding of over €50000 to develop a restoration plan for a natural lake in their region...

Hi BluSky! I want to brag about a paper we published in August (I didn't post then b/c I was having knee surgery). We investigated the competing influences of the Maumee River and algal blooms on the carbon budget of Lake Erie's Western Basin. (1/6) agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

The first instalment of "Diatoms 101" is now live at bit.ly/3D1XoxQ. I've collated some of my posts on the evolution and classification of algae and diatoms and am planning to add more about identification over the coming months.

A new risk assessment framework to classify #lakes according to their resilience, or sensitivity, to #eutrophication. Applied to 1000 lakes globally. Great working with #EiriniPoliti @brockmannconsult.bsky.social Behind paywall though so DM me if you want a copy. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Our latest discovery of “lowest recorded temperature for eukaryotic cell motility” going all the way down to -15deg C. Come for the crazy cold Arctic & stay for diatoms. Will write longer thread - but enjoy video below of diatoms gliding on frozen ice surfaces. Congrats @zqing.bsky.social & team.
