New paper alert! - In very nice new study led Michael Muir, we present a simple technique for citizen science (and beyond) use to quantify DOC in mugs of water with nothing but a smart phone camera! Fully open access.

I think mine updates and adds this kind of thing automatically….never looked into how to change it but assume you can?

Sadly not - field class clash this year. Let’s have a chat on line after Easter.

Mike, we should have a quick chat about this - their May be scope for some synergies with our peat project RESPECT that started a month or two back.

New paper alert! Here we examine the geomorphic effects on carbon dynamics in a saltmarsh system, showing clear differences between eroding and prograding regions. Excellent first first-author paper by Dr. lea Stolpmann.

Basically flawless for me so far - with the exception that DLSS seems bugged with HDR and give awful shimmer in the highlights…..fortunately it runs fine without DLSS too.

The key line from student feedback to my Oceanography course - 'His ability to match his shirts to the lectures topic was appreciated :)'...... my work is done.

Rock, charcoal and compost: Investigating synergistic effects of enhanced rock weathering, biochar, and compost amendments for soil remediation and carbon sequestration.

Interested in how we can maximize our lands capacity for carbon capture and storage? We have a fully funded PhD examining the synergistic effects of biochar, enhanced rock weathering, and compost as agricultural amendments as part of the IAPETUS DTP. Details here: iapetus2.ac.uk/studentships...

New paper alert! Here we examine the drivers of methane and nitrous oxide dynamics in estuarine environments - highlighting the critical roles salinity and oxygen play and the temporal & spatial variability that results.

Interested in ponds and greenhouse gas emissions? I'll shortly be advertising a PhD at University of Liverpool with the title: "How do fish affect greenhouse gas emissions from small waterbodies?"
