#AI spy moths: AI-powered biodiversity monitoring stations in Singapore will assess the health of ecosystems by studying and photographing moths, which are essential pollinators and food sources for animals like bats. Led by @NTU_ASE Prof @EleSlade, it will also capture sounds from bats. This is a joint project with @UK_CEH and @turinginst, supported by abrdn_plc. ntu.sg/Amber-Project

Why isn't the world covered in poop? Because of decomposers like #dungbeetles of course! @paulypod and I had an amzing time making this with @TED_ED. Hope you enjoy it! xitter.cf/TED_ED/status/97829303…
Each day, the animal kingdom produces roughly enough poop to match the volume of water pouring over Victoria Falls. So why isn’t the planet covered in the stuff? t.ted.com/FM0DPyl

Insects account for an estimated 75% of animal life on Earth and are an invaluable and integral part of all life on our planet.

Let’s appreciate and protect insects #ForNature and for ourselves.

The #TEELab @NTU_ASE is surveying the dung beetles of the CCNR as part of @nparksbuzz inventory of wildlife in SG. Read more here about the work led by @XinRuiOng! Always nice when #dungbeetles make the news! 💩🪲💚🌳

As part of the @nparksbuzz biodiversity surveys at the Central Catchment Nature Reserve, @NTUsg researchers are studying the dung beetles residing there, which wld give an indication of mammal populations & establish a baseline on species found locally! straitstimes.com/singapore/n…

Amazing work by #TEELab @NTU_ASE @ScienceNTU student @zwitteriann presenting her URECA project on the #dungbeetles of Singapore at #ICUR2022 & highlighting the importance of #taxonomy & #naturalhistory for #biodiversity science #WomenInSTEM #womeninentomology #entomology
Presented my #dungbeetles of Singapore work today at the International Conference for Undergraduate Research #ICUR2022! First time formally communicating my science to a multi-disciplinary audience, & also enjoyed hearing from other student researchers too! 😀 @ICURstudents
ALT Some of my favourite slides from my presentation, highlighting the functional importance of dung beetles, sampling sites in Singapore, the creation of a morphological key, and the support of the Tropical Ecology and Entomology Lab in Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.
