@UCDSBES @_Rosemount – at Fingal, Ireland
Ponds are developing nicely, and biology is picking up the pace!
Introducing ExOPond (Experimental Outdoor Pond) mesocosm system😃. Experiments start in spring 2025 on the effects of predators on resilience to perturbations. Reach out to collaborate on this or future experiments. Thanks @UCDSBES for funding and @_Rosemount for facilitating!

We found that including nonlinearity improved 5/6 models while the inclusion of interactions improved 6/6 models! A huge thanks to @penkmar and @jaypiggott for helping with this project!

Excited to say that my first paper looking at nonlinearity and interactions in multiple stressor-response models is now available to view in @SpringerNature Environmental Monitoring and Assessment! Check it out at the link: rdcu.be/dWkhH

🌊Impact of land-use trumps some of the climate change stressors for stream #algae, with complex interactions & sediment a major culprit. Temporal patterns of stressors matter

I’m really excited to share our new synthesis of 2,396 (!) multiple-stressor experiments conducted in freshwater ecosystems that’s just been published in @Ecology_Letters: doi.org/10.1111/ele.14463

Delighted to share our new papers (led by Dr. Julia Hunn, not on Twitter) exploring the interactive effects of CO2, heatwaves, flow variability and sedimentation on river ecosystems (doi.org/10.1111/gcb.17336 and doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.…)
