We think of pollution as plastic floating or oil leaking… but what about ✨light✨? Artificial light at night can disrupt insects moving between water 💧 and land 🌲 with ripple effects across ecosystems. The Behavioural Ecology Lab @helsinki.fi is studying just this! 🔬 #LightPollution #Biodiversity

@koneensaatio.fi celebration was popping! Very proud to be part of this amazing community 💃🏼 Now let’s do some great science! 🧬
Happy faces to celebrate my first week as postdoc in the Behavioural Ecology Lab 🤠 @hilife-helsinki.bsky.social
Delighted to be joining as 🤓postdoc @helsinki.fi with @ulrikacandolin.bsky.social group on the impacts of light pollution on Finnish stream communities! 🪰Check out the project here: koneensaatio.fi/en/grants-an... #eDNA #macroinvertebrates #pollution #freshwater💡
Light pollution – a biodiversity threat: Impact on insect fluxes across ecosystem boundaries - Kone Foundation
Insect biodiversity is declining at an alarming rate. Light pollution has been identified as one contributing factor, yet its impact remains poorly known. Aquatic insects with terrestrial life stages ...

The end to a wonderful journey! Thank you to my wonderful supervisor @planktola.bsky.social ❤️ looking forward to what comes next 😌
Big congratulations to @clio-bio.bsky.social on defending her PhD last Friday and making me very very very proud! 🥳🥳🥳 We wish you success with whatever you choose to pursue!
WOW! Our survey of scientists who stopped using Twitter and started using Bluesky is now the #1 most-shared on social media article in the history of the journal Integrative and Comparative Biology! Thanks for reading it, everyone! @sicbjournals.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/icb/... 🧪
Scientists no Longer Find Twitter Professionally Useful, and have Switched to Bluesky

Recipe for the Baltic Sea Spritz: Mix your desired amounts of substances from the list below with a dash of brackish water. Enjoy, if you dare!🍹 Luckily, measures taken do work, and we can act towards a healthier Baltic Sea together! 🔗 buff.ly/itC0mpX #StateOfTheBalticSea #HOLAS3 #BalticSea
Field days in beautiful Rovaniemi with Puro Analytics 🌲 tracing the comeback of freshwater pearl mussels through eDNA after river restoration 🧬🌿 never a dull day in this office! #eDNA #Biodiversity #RiverRestoration
🌊 Excited to share the results of my work with @helcominfo.bsky.social & Heini Feodorow — a new Baltic Sea resource bank now online! 💙 Games, videos & lesson plans making Baltic Sea science fun and accessible. There's something for everyone! 🐚 #BalticSea #HELCOM #HOLAS
🔊 New resource bank on the Baltic Sea! A comprehensive set of awareness-raising materials is now available. Drawing on key results from HOLAS 3, this resource bank offers tailor-made materials for different audiences to enhance ocean literacy. Explore here: buff.ly/0qZct7u
Are you interested in how eDNA can be used to study climate change impacts?🧬 Our new paper shows how eDNA tracks plankton community responses to experimental treatments, revealing taxonomic shifts and biodiversity changes 🏛️ @tvarminne.bsky.social 👉🏼 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... #eDNA
DNA Metabarcoding as a Tool to Study Plankton Responses to Warming and Salinity Change in Mesocosms
To assess the impact of future climate change on Baltic Sea plankton communities, we conducted a mesocosm experiment manipulating temperature and salinity, using both microscopy-based and DNA metabar...

Hello Bluesky friends 👋 Thought I’d do a quick intro 🤠 I’m an aquatic ecologist @helsinki.fi looking at how biodiversity responds to environmental change using molecular methods. Here’s me last week in the field, fully kitted out in my "high-tech" moosefly-proof gear 🌊🧬 #eDNA #ecology
