❗New paper❗So pleased to see this out - my 1st foray into Arctic #sneakybeasties, in collab with colleagues @NINAnature, @NorskPolar, @NTNU and @ETH 🕵️. 36 spp of alien plants in all settlements of Svalbard, and how to stop the problem getting worse! 🌱🌱🌱🌱 #InvasiveSpecies
📰Published📰
Where we go, they follow! @JesamineCB et al. explore the status of alien plants in Svalbard and present a method for monitoring alien flora in polar regions.

A kit bag can only mean one thing - field work!! 🥳This #PolarAlienHunter is heading to Chile @inach_gob and @SAERI_FI to collect samples to uncover where #sneakybeasties on an #Antarctic ship have come from!
Also, this gear is SPOTLESS - so I only need to clean my personal gear

Peatlands cover just 3% of the planet's land but store 30% of its soil carbon.
Let's work together for peatlands by keeping peat carbon in the ground and rewetting peatlands that have already been drained.

Impacts of #climatechange will be felt by biodiversity globally, including in the not-so-remote and not-so-disconnected #Antarctic
Loved writing this piece with a brilliant team of co-authors. And it wouldn't have been possible without the support of @Royalcom1851 - thank you 👏

Don't forget to check out all the awesome #SCAR2022 posters from both of our @AntICON_SCAR parallel sessions on 'Rethinking Antarctic conservation' and 'Human impacts' - they are all wonderful!

It's 24 hours until our second #SCAR2022 parallel session - this time on #human impacts in #Antarctica! 🥳🥳
Looking forward to some exciting talks on topics from fieldwork carbon footprint to environmental impacts of tourism!

And a big thanks back at you for letting me join the team and contribute entomological synergies with the @TheASICSProject and @Polar_Aliens! And to also wrap up my work for @NINAnature with a cracking Arctic expedition!! ⛵️🌱🦋🐜🪰👋 – at Trondheim, Norway
A big thanks to all involved that push this project: @LenaBakker @sigrid_tk @JanaRuthers @Kristinebw1 @Marijn_vdb @FrossardAline @magnaGENOMICS @JesamineCB , Florian Wilken, Simone Fior, Jake Alexander, Jamila Gisler, the crew of the Valiente and my patient team @ETH_SoilRes !
ALT Non-native plants (here: Achillea millefolium) beginning to establish in the tundra? The future of the Arctic? Or restricted to hotspots? And what does this mean for soils and biogeochemical cycling if warming and vegetation change continues? We will find out!

Bye Svalbard, it was hard but amazing! What a field campaign, with many ups and downs.But our team from @usys_ethzh, @WSL_research & @NINAforskning pulled it off. 2 tons of soil, plant specimen and frozen microbial samples coming home for exciting follow-ups on #arcticgreening
ALT Intial soil development - On speed-track due to warming?
ALT Vegetation characterization, Soil profile descriptions, root sampling, microbial deep freezing - A true interdisciplinary effort! Impression from one of the sites with nutrient influx from bird cliff run-off, likely leading to the lush vegetaton along creeks and flight paths of landing birds.
ALT Svalbard's amazing beauty and contrasts. Us on the way back to our ship the Valiente for getting to the next location.
ALT -80°C mobile deep freezer to keep microbial DNA and RNA samples intact. Carried on her back by one of our students, Lena Bakker, throughout the entire campaign. I was sceptical, but it worked perfectly! Respect for this achievement, Lena!

4) I learned of the concept "don't be a hero". If the work only can be done by doing weekends/late nights, the system is flawed. If you do it, then you are hiding the underlying flaws, which will not fix the problem. Sticking to a reasonable working load is key. 6/n

When you're sailing in front of a glacier, several days into intense @TheASICSProject/ #ArcticGreening field work & can't see your fingernails for all the soil embedded in them, but really think now is the time for a texas chainsaw massacre inspired facial 😀 @Kristinebw1
