Wrote a piece for @manmetuni.bsky.social Doctoral Research Blog about the first chapter of my thesis, attending the @landscapeecologyuk.bsky.social 20205 Conference & finding inspiration in Lauriston Farm's vision of nature and community: www.manmetpgr.co.uk/blog/07-2025... 🕊️🛰️

Thank you to everyone who joined and supported our conference on Monitoring Ecosystem Recovery at the Landscape Scale this week. We are so pleased a wide range of delegates from academia, policy and practice decided to join us - we hope you made many new and valuable connections 🌳

They stand in front of young trees with tree guards, on a grassy path, with a dark cloudy sky in the background.

Astonishing: “in 2024, British bumblebees experienced their worst year since the BCT started its monitoring campaign…the numbers of bees were down by more than one fifth…one of our commonest species, the Red-tailed Bumblebee declined a staggering 74%” 🐝 Excellent summary article here ⬇️

Really interesting new research using a fantastic long term dataset: “phosphorus loads in the River Thames have decreased by approximately 80 per cent over the past 40 years — thanks to improved wastewater treatment and agricultural practices – yet algal bloom threats persist.” 🐟

UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH)@ukceh.bsky.social · 2y ago

Climate change is increasing the risk of algal blooms in the River Thames despite four decades of declining phosphorus loads. A study by UKCEH Fellow Prof Helen Jarvie, now at @uwaterloo.ca, analyses the river’s 150-year water quality record to explore the trends. uwaterloo.ca/water-instit... 🧪
