Check out this excellent new output from @alejandrisu about Payment for Ecosystem Services and the socio-ecological dimension of water services in the Rio Santa basin, with @SRangecroft @LaurenceWRT myself, and others on the @sigmaperu project! 👇💧 sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Great to be back in Peru with @SRangecroft on our final trip for the @sigmaperu project. We had a fun day soaking up the sights in Lima yesterday, and today we're on our way to Huaraz and the Andes! 🇵🇪🍸

Hello #sciencetwitter universe - does anyone have any recommendations for the best (free, but we do have access to Zoom) online platforms for hosting virtual participant training events (up to, or > 100 participants possibly)? Any recommendations/advice is welcomed, thanks!
#sciencetwitter can anyone recommend the best (free) online platform for hosting virtual #participant training events please? GoogleMeets, Zoom? My colleague in Peru is looking to run a online event for participants to show them how to use a #CitizenScience app! Thanks! 💻 🇵🇪 💧
New #blog post from the SIGMA team attending at this years #vEGU21 - come and read about the work presented by our researchers and some reflections on #virtual #conferences 🌞💻sigmaperu.wordpress.com/2021…
For anyone interested in peak water & water resources in glacial basins with climate change, I am presenting at #EGU21 at 14:51 UK time in the HS2.1.6 #mountain #hydrology session. You can access my display materials at: meetingorganizer.copernicus.… or look at my PICO slide here :) ❄️
