Daar ging 'ie dan, in de prullenbak: het Tracébesluit A27. Het was een mooi feest afgelopen zaterdag in ons Milieucentrum. Met zo’n 50 mensen vierden we dat de natuur van #Amelisweerd behouden blijft. 💚 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fuz2... @amelisweerdnietgeasfalteerd.climatejustice.global.ap.brid.gy
Jane Austen themed lego. It's small, shaped like a book. It has a piano, books, curtains, and a desk with a quill.
I finally got around to putting together my Jane Austen lego last night.
Null results matter, but too often, they never see the light of day.
When journals only publish splashy findings, we lose valuable science.
That's why I'm excited about 2-pagers at @StacksJournal.bsky.social. Streamlined publishing for results that deserve to be shared.

Anas Al-Sharif pictured with his two young children that he is holding. They are all smiling.
Anas Al-Sharif was one of the most remarkable reporters of his generation. For 673 days, he defied Israeli threats to kill him.
Al Jazeera now confirm their crew in Gaza City have all been assassinated:
RIP reporters Anas Al-Sharif & Mohammed Qareqea and cameramen Ibrahim Zaher & Mohammed Nofal

Morteratsch gletsjer
Door een droge winter en uitzonderlijk warme juni verliezen de Alpengletsjers al sinds begin juli netto ijs. De kans op veel ijsverlies in 2025 is groot. En dat juist in het VN Jaar van het Gletsjerbehoud. 🔗 www.knmi.nl/over-het-knm...
So, has this reached us yet? Yes, it did. I did a quick #rstats analysis of the literature in ecology. 📊

In a synthesis of over 3000 population trends in the Wadden Sea, we show a substantial reorganization of biodiversity with over 38% of populations undergoing significant change (i.e., increases or decreases), identify winners and losers and critical time points of change! dx.doi.org/10.1111/gcb....

There is no magic formula which toxins are expected with #cyanobacteria but the #microcystins and #anabaenopeptins we identified as indicators for different species in Lake Greifensee in a 5-year study seem to apply to many lakes in Switzerland.

cover of my new book everything is tuberculosis: the history and persistence of our deadliest infection
Everything Is Tuberculosis comes out THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW. I am so excited and also nervous. I hope you like it. Preorder your signed copy at everythingistb.com
For a lecture, I am looking for examples of current amateur natural history collectors who focus specifically on the urban realm. For example, a shell, fly, or plant collector who specialises on the biota of one or multiple inner cities (rather than their surroundings). Any suggestions?

We kunnen wel (terecht) klagen over Trump, maar we moeten ons daar niet door af laten leiden.
Hier gebeurt hetzelfde, alleen liggen we nog een paar stappen achter op de VS.
En protesteren via gevatte social media-posts is te gemakzuchtig om het tij te keren.

It's a cyanobacteria on the outside, fungus on the inside.
Well, sort of. The fungus lives in the extracellular sheath produced by the Cyanobacteria, and therefore are not really true endophytes. But the cyanos do create the external structure.
Op 14 feb is op de Mariaplaats in Utrecht een ijsbeer met jong uit ijs gezaagd door kunstenaar Frank de Conynck. Een krachtig symbool van de klimaatcrisis. Te zien tot en met 28 feb. Kom kijken & ga in gesprek! #LaatDeIJsbeerInDeKouStaan [1/3]
