I had the best time talking about stream ecology to a grade 4 class last week with @skypeascientist.bsky.social 👩‍🔬🐟💦
Their curiosity and enthusiasm was truly infectious 🥹

Interesting day of presentations and discussions between scientists and managers at Aquatic Research Cooperative #ARC Research Day!

And attended a great @ubcbiodiversity.bsky.social seminar talk from Dr John Kominoski about DOM in the Florida Everglades!

Had a great time speaking with @kenzco4.bsky.social ’s Boreal-Arctic Biogeochemistry Lab! (Thanks for the awesome sticker!)

Nostalgic visit to my MSc alma mater UBC this week @forestry.ubc.ca 🌲

Beautiful few days in the British Columbia Coast Mountains for some fieldwork. We were taking down a long-term warming experiment for the winter. Already looking forward to coming back in the spring/summer! 🏔️🛶🥾

Wahoo! Looking good! Good luck 😃

Just submitted our collaborative perspective piece! 🎉 It‘s all about improving accounting and mitigation of GHG emissions from ditches—sparked by the great presentations and discussions at our ditch symposium! 📈🧪👩‍🔬🌍

First day at SFU today starting a new postdoc position—which was preceded by a weekend of kayaking in the Sechelt Inlet! It’s great to be back in British Columbia! 🥳

Fab! I would love to! I’ll send you a message 😊

Yes, I think he mentioned it!

Ooh! Very excited to read this! 👏

Study reveals colonization wiped out nearly 90% of marine food ecosystems in Vancouver's coastal waters | CBC News A new research partnership between the University of B.C. and Tsleil-Waututh Nation indicates impacts of colonization, including smallpox, overfishing and industrialization, destroyed nearly 90 per ce...

Canadian wetlands are treasures that deserve protection Canada is home to a quarter of the world’s remaining wetlands. Despite decades of efforts, wetlands continue to be under threat around the world.

COP15 of the Ramsar Convention starts today. Here in Canada we have the privilege of being home to a quarter of the world's remaining wetlands. Let's not forget what a treasure they are.

If you want to reminisce about some #EGU25 inland water GHG highlights, I wrote a little something for the BG division blog! ✍️

Yeah… the EGU ones seem to appear automatically, maybe there is a way to get rid of them?! Although I’ll take ‘em to beef up my meagre publication list 😂

We found some mixed results: no observed effect of the impoundments on leaf litter decomposition, a longitudinal effect on organic matter stocks, and a local effect of high diffusive CO2 and CH4 emissions downstream of one of the two impoundments.

We measured upstream and downstream of two small impoundments like this one, as well as at other reaches along the Tarentaine river network in France.

Small Water Impoundments Have Local and Longitudinal Impacts on Carbon Cycling Along a River Network Damming may be one of the most significant anthropogenic modifications fragmenting river networks. Damming alters the transport and processing of coarse particulate organic matter (OM), hence influen...

Our article about the local and longitudinal effects of small water impoundments on riverine carbon cycling is out now in River Research and Applications @tdatry.bsky.social @rsarremejane.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Visited some lowland peat ditches in East Anglia with @peatymike.bsky.social to collect CH4 ebullition measurements for the LowlandPeat3 project. Some of the ditches were dry, others covered in duckweed, and we even spotted a fish in one!

A big tour of fenland ditches with @tksilver.bsky.social today for the Defra-funded Lowland Peat 3 project. Samples collected for dissolved GHGs and dissolved organic carbon, and 24hr chambers deployed to capture total CH4 emissions.

No advert out yet, but I will recruiting a 2yr postdoc, start date autumn 2025, at @livunigeog.bsky.social soon. Lowland and upland peatlands, GHGs, DOM and water chemistry. Plenty of fieldwork. Feel free to drop me a DM or email if you might be interested, and please spread the word.

Lovely to be once again back in Uppsala. Visited five rewetted/restored peatlands today to measure aquatic GHG emissions with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social & @tksilver.bsky.social

An excellent few days in Aarhus, Denmark for the Beyond the Surface symposium on inland water greenhouse gas emissions! So many inspiring talks and discussions
