Day 1 of the workshop will focus on mapping lake littoral habitat in R. Day 2 will focus on accessing massive amounts of weather data from your laptop. Day 3 will focus on accessing #NEON data! Day 4 and 5 will feature 20 talks by a range of ECRs on this emerging frontier!

We’re in Montreal and super excited for #ASLOSIL26! We’ll talk about physics, bubbles, nitrogen and models. Also, join us at ///SS009 The Next Frontier in Aquatic Sciences/// from Friday to Saturday. 🌊 Invited talk by Abhilash Neog about foundation modeling for lake research.

Presentations by team members this week: Ahmed on Friday at 10 AM, Tuba and Robert on Friday at 11 AM, and Tom on Saturday at 4:45 PM

What will the future hold for the aquatic sciences? Let's chat about this at next year's ASLO-SIL Joint Meeting in Canada! How can we expand our science by using remote sensing 🛰️, data science 💾, machine learning 🤖, modeling 📈, and/or open science 🫶 - creative approaches for impactful research! 🧪

THE BUOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN! We got new buoys today to extend our lake monitoring for the Danish Long-Term Ecological Research. These will extend our high-frequency data sets of oxygen and temperature in two new lakes to better understand slow as well as rapid environmental changes.

Here's is my experience from the financial crisis of 2008 (and Covid). Even though the whole way we are doing and funding science has changed significantly, people's shortcuts for determining whether or not you are "succeeding" will take longer to recalibrate. /1

I wonder, for those of us on a tenure clock, how will this situation factor in? We’re not playing the same game we set out to play.

The aim of this home made, low cost, system Ed is working on is to measure fluxes of carbon dioxide and methane (diffusion and bubbles) 6 times a day, 7 days a week, hopefully 365 days the year on all 24 mesocosms. That will 52 560 flux estimates, though we might miss a couple over the year!

@edevardtdanielsen.bsky.social, @tubabucak.bsky.social, @etileter.bsky.social and @thosdavidson.bsky.social launched Ed’s PhD project at the Lemming mesocosms! We study how nutrients, temperature, and macrophytes affect oxygen dynamics and GHGs in aquatic systems. Excited to see what we uncover!

Work with me on getting depth-discrete profiles of water quality using high-frequency loggers and microCTD measurements! And then let’s be creative to infer mechanisms that could improve mechanistic modeling.

Join us at Aarhus University to research improved ways to simulate lake ecosystems using high-frequency data! 1.5 months left until the deadline to apply for this PhD position: phd.tech.au.dk/for-applican...
