☎️UK undergrads!
Join the Biodiversity Futures lab @NHM_London for a ✨ paid ✨ 8-week placement funded by @GW4plusDTP.
Study how 🌳 influence soil decomposition processes and develop your fieldwork, lab, and stats skills.
Deadline 14th May. Info: shorturl.at/gjLU3
Be careful what jokes you make around your kids, or you will end up on a conference slide!
Thanks to @NHM_Students for the chance to showcase my DIY dad's contribution to science AND chat about how alley-cropping could help to tackle soil degradation on UK farms🌳🌾

We had a fantastic week learning about alpine ecology and geological processes with the second-year @YorkEnvironment ES & EG students!
#UoYAustria2024
Another ✨paid✨ summer research placement @NHM_London studying soil decomposition dynamics on UK farmland 🌳🌾, supervised by myself and @alexa_varah.
Pls share w/ UK-based undergrads wanting lab & stats experience.
Apply by 17 May. Details @SSCP_DTP: tinyurl.com/47auzkzz.

Applications are NOW OPEN!
The Undergraduate Bursary Scheme provides students from underrepresented backgrounds with 5-6 weeks of hands-on work experience in a museum.
Projects cover natural sciences research, museum collections management, and public engagement with science.

960 litter bags weighed, sealed, and ready for the field! 🌿
Undergraduate or master's students in London, Cambridge, Nottingham, or Suffolk looking to gain some valuable fieldwork experience, I could use some help burying these.
Contact beth.evans@nhm.ac.uk for more info 🌳
Just migrated south from @JamesHuttonInst, where I was lucky enough to set up a soil nitrogen tracer experiment with Maddy Giles and Sandra Caul.
Can't wait to find out what secrets are hidden in my four tiny well plates - do agroforestry 🌳 influence soil nitrogen cycling?

A cool find from one of my tullgren funnel extracts - a #Diptera not quite fully emerged from its pupal shell 🪰
The choice to record specimens like this as either adults or larvae can influence metrics of biological #SoilHealth, so it prompts an interesting discussion!

Check out our policy brief on Earth Observation (EO) and Great Lake management.
EO 🛰️ is a powerful tool for studying water resources. My PhD utilises EO data to explore decadal-scale changes across 100s of East African lakes! @London_NERC_DTP @kclgeography @NHM_Students – at Paddington, London
I'm very pleased to be able to share our policy brief on Satellite Earth Observation for the Sustainable Management of the African Great Lakes. kclpure.kcl.ac.uk/portal/fil… @DavideLomeo @AidanByrneSci @henrythomp @winnie_owoko @NJWanjohi @JamesLast @ZMigeni
My favourite thing about hand sorting #soil samples is watching the behaviour of these incredible little #fauna.
If anyone can provide an #ID from these photos, I'd love to know what #worm 🪱 and #millipede I had the pleasure of meeting.

The sun came out to greet us for our first week of #fieldwork in 2023 🌞
Thanks @AidanByrneSci for being a fab field assistant and getting excited about #soil with me.
@CDahlsjo I had a blast learning about your decomposition experiment in Wytham 🌳. Thanks for having me! – at Cambridge, England
If you're at #GSB23 and interested in how alley-cropping influences soil biological quality on arable farmland, stop by poster 76 this afternoon for a chat 🌳🌾🐛
Or if you're app savvy, connect with me on the conference app for more info.

Great to see @SoilScholar present the results of their meta-analysis on #SoilBiodiversity in #horticultural systems at #GSB2023.
Some surprising and thought-provoking finds!
What a fantastic couple of days learning how to install soil respiration collars with @RewildingJed.
Can't wait to get back out to @RealFarmED to see how the measurements are taken.
Anyone interested in learning about Regenerative Farming, I would highly recommend a visit 🌾🍄
