Honoured to present my PhD research on Congo River–wetland water flux dynamics at the First Annual CBSI conference 2026 @congobasinscience.bsky.social Great exchanges on hydrology, peatlands/wetlands, monitoring, and the Cuvette Centrale. #Hydrology #Wetland #CongoBasin #CBSI

📄Important article in the @theguardian.com about the #CongoBasin and its importance for global carbon sinks including scientific voices from @simonlewis.bsky.social and scientists from @congobasinscience.bsky.social 👉 Read the full article here: www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The rainforest the world forgot: the Congo basin is the second largest on Earth, so why is it being neglected?

It is one of the world’s most vital carbon sinks, but this tropical rainforest is losing out when it comes to climate policy and funding
