We are launching the first ever #PASSDAY21!
You want to contribute to a collaborative project aiming towards a better understanding of pond soundscapes? On June 21st go to your local pond, get your hydrophone out and record the #freshwater #soundscape!

Great presentation @WildAudioJack! If people are interested in hearing more, there's an 'audio-poster' on the #epcnponds21 poster page, alongside loads of other goodies: europeanponds.org/conference…
An amazing amount of work went into this, great to see the results developing. Faecal indicator organisms are in almost every lake/pond studied, but the drivers of e.coli hotspots aren't clear.
And finally... But truely brilliantly. Our last speaker of the afternoon is @ZarahPattison with her mega-innovative work on the detection of faecal pollution in small #lakes as part of @HydroscapeNERC. 800 sediment cores collected... Wow... Nice work Zarah!!! #epcnponds21

The cheeky & brilliant @AlanLaw_ talking on "Quantity, quality & connectivity" & what matters for #freshwater #biodiversity @epcnponds21 @HydroscapeNERC

Just a few days left to apply for this paid summer internship opportunity: environmental-research.ox.ac…. Aimed at undergraduate students interested in freshwater ecology and global change #epcnponds2021 @BES_AquaEco

The best conference talks I give are always the night before when I'm trying to get to sleep... and I inevitably forget all the things I want to remember. So I'll see everyone tomorrow at #epcnponds21 for an inferior talk on ponds and lakes!
Our researchers are sharing our freshwater connectivity results at the @europeanponds conference. Spoiler alert; connectivity can be a double-edged sword!
Here we go!!! The brilliant @NWillby from the @HydroscapeNERC project hits the #epcn2021 stage with a *Plenary Talk* on the importance of #connectivity @AlanLaw_ @NERCscience

REQUEST: #Himalayanbalsam seeds are ripe for the picking at the mo. If you are going for a walk this week and pass a stand of this plant could you collect some seeds for me please? Can pay for postage too. Would be great to get seeds from various locations. @AlanLaw_ @NWillby
A nice blog making use of freshwater data collected/collated for the Hydroscape project:
Relating habitat age to species richness

We've had our first project paper accepted!! 🍾 😀
Lead by @AlanLaw_, we test the effectiveness of aquatic plants as surrogates for wider biodiversity. Further updates coming soon....

Who needs #MondayMotivation when you're #sediment coring in #Glasgow? Here is our IPA president Helen Bennion from @UCLgeography bunging the Big Ben corer for @HydroscapeNERC. Feat. @vivjones2 @samdavtur. @NERCscience #paleolimnology hydroscapeblog.wordpress.com…
We're biased of course, but this is a really fantastic resource!
