Attending my first ever annual DGL conference in Frankfurt - looking forward to many interesting talks over the next four days!

Last weekend, I attended the second part of the Odonata identification course organized by KennArt and NABU Münsterland. I am extremely grateful for this opportunity, for meeting amazing odonata fans and learning so much!

FYI if you're not in the right time zone for this do not fret! Sign up as an online attendee to get access to the required docs and Discord site, then you can contribute when it's a good time for you and chat with others awake at the same time on Discord. Fun for all time zones!

Postdoctoral Opportunity in Ecology – Biodiversity Meets Data at Senckenberg, Germany The Senckenberg Research Institute in Germany is hiring a Postdoctoral Researcher in ecology to join an EU-funded biodiversity project. This role combines big data analysis, freshwater ecology, and conservation…

For those interested in my small project on #odonata in #urbanponds, you can now get all updates on my new Instagram profile@WingsOverWaters I am also using this account for science communication focusing on odonata in general. Feel free to follow and share widely!

A month ago, I started a small project on #odonata in #urbanponds, where I'm monitoring 10 different ponds in a community garden in Cologne over a course of 5 months and assessing the diversity of dragonflies and damselflies. This weekend, I was visiting the ponds for a second time, and was 1/n

Our study led by @zsuzsimrton.bsky.social from my lab found that especially pond vegetation is crucial if you want to provide a safe aquatic haven for the local biota in your garden - based on data from more than 800 volunteering pond owners in the #MyPond citizen science program 🔵🧪👩‍🔬🏡

„Von Angesicht zu Angesicht“ hat es heute auf die Spiegel Bestseller-Liste geschafft! Ein Bestseller mit Insekten. Was für eine tolle Entwicklung. Menschen schätzen Biodiversität nur, wenn sie sie kennenlernen. Das Buch mit @sagaoptics.bsky.social und Dominik Eulberg war ein Herzensprojekt.

Our Biodiversity Seminar Series starts again next week! We're thrilled to have Clara Zemp (University of Neuchâtel) to discuss the key findings from a biodiversity enrichment experiment established 10 years ago in an oil palm landscape in Sumatra, Indonesia. biodiversitycenter.wsl.ch/en/events/de...

Eine sehr spannende Folge!
