I'm preparing a lecture on current concepts/research in conservation, for a master's course about forest conservation, and would love suggestions for topics! #conservation #forest #teaching 🧪🌍

These past two weeks I have submitted four applications, two as main applicant and two as co-applicant. Extremely proud of myself that I got through it, although my brain feels fried. Looking forward to being out in the field today and taking the day off tomorrow!

Heja heja!

We are recruiting an industry/collaborative PhD student for a project focusing on green tree retention, and its role for preserving species associated with large trees and dead wood. The project consists of fieldwork, a systematic review, and working at Kopparfors Skogar.

My disappointment is immeasurable after reading the title too quickly and then discovering the paper is in fact not about Bigfoot and other cryptids

I am visting again, this time for 3 months! Thanks for the info!

I am still so chuffed that one of my favourite authors lived in Wallingford for most of her life! #agathachristie 📚🔪🔍

NEW PAPER from the GLiTRS team! 🎉

We review how best to use different types of evidence to better understand global insect declines 🦗🪳🪲🦋🐛🐜

"Integrating multiple evidence streams to understand insect biodiversity change" published in @science.org

My view for the next three months at UKCEH in Wallingford! Excited to do some cool science, and watching the spring! 🌱 🌼

Lovely! Although I notice a distinct lack of spring-time pictures of the Bourne building...🤔

As a researcher currently focusing on how to measure biodiversity, I am really looking forward to reading the book "the renaissance of the immeasurable" (freely translated), by Jonna Bornemark

One week left to apply!

New paper🚨

Using the UK MoJ prison sites as a case study, we show that reducing lawn mowing frequencies to between 6-12 weeks increases pollinator abundance by 170% 🐝🦋 in urban and suburban building complexes

A simple message to help #pollinators

📣 Two weeks left to apply for this @treesdla.bsky.social dla.bsky.social PhD project on effects of forest diversity on floral reward production for pollinators supervised by me & @philstevenson.bsky.social. Please contact me if you are interested 🐝🌼🌳🌲 🧪🌍 www.trees-dla.ac.uk/apply

I have an open position (fully funded for 4 years) for a PhD candidate in a project on pollinator communities and populations in relation to forest structure and microclimate.

Bumblebee Abundance in Species-Rich Grasslands in Southern Sweden Decreases with Increasing Amount of Arable Land at a Landscape Level Conservation of bumblebee populations is essential because of their role as pollinators. Declines in bumblebee abundance have been documented in recent decades, mostly attributed to agricultural inten...

In our latest paper, me and my colleagues found that bumblebee abundance decrease with more arable land in the landscape. Reduced pesticide use, higher crop diversity and promoting floral resources and alternative bumblebee habitats could help limit these negative effects www.mdpi.com/3083388

Big congratulations to Doctor @svenjahorstmann.bsky.social, who successfully defended her thesis "The impact of traffic, management and landscape on flower-visiting insects and plants in road verges". Well done! 🧪🦋🐝

We're offering a PhD place on Rewilding!

This PhD will study the wilder grazing at Purbeck Heaths ‘Super National Nature Reserve’, which is shifting towards the restoration of natural processes to create a more dynamic, complex landscape

Definitivt! De studier vi utgick ifrån fokuserade främst på granskog så det fick bli vårt utgångsläge, men slutsatserna är säkert giltiga i andra typer av skogar i resten av Sverige också!

Skogsskötseln i det svenska skogsbruket bör främja biologisk mångfald samtidigt som de negativa effekterna av klimatförändringar begränsas. I ett nyligen publicerat policy brief sammanfattar jag och mina medförfattare hur båda målen kan uppnås samtidigt
