📢 We are excited to announce that PhD candidate Lara Santos Ayllon from the University of Edinburgh will deliver the ECR keynote at this year's Beyond Oil conference!
Lara will present her research on:
👉 Making just energy futures from the ground up: Insights from the Orkney Islands.
In the perfect cross section between anthropogenic constructions and nature, we mapped the vegetation. One of the more unique compositions of species so far in #Ecobudgets.
The great advantage of having QGIS take care of creating randomly distributed sites for fieldwork. don’t think I could have picked a better spot myself to investigate the crossover from human made construction and nature! #Ecobudgets @uibcet.bsky.social @btwnthefjords-uib.bsky.social
#Fieldworkselfie - four scientists and a vegetation plot, demarcated by a mental frame. This plot is part of a random sample of 200 sick plots in Bergen Municipality. And this particular one ended up on a roadside in Nygårdsparken!
First day of field work! PhD student Hanif Kawousi starting his field work by sampliing a vegetation plot in an urban park. In this picture he is standing, smiling, with a tablet and weseing a yellow rainjacket and a blue hat. In the background, a water fountain… that’s urban ecology for you!
PhD student Hanif Kawousi and lab manager Dagmar Egelkraut eagerly messuring traits of plants …. sitting on a lawn in a park roadside curb,…
PhD student Hanif Kawousi talking to a passer-by on a paved park path. When doing urban ecology, remember to factir in some time talking to strangers :-) …for this plot alone, we had 8 people ask questions… #outreach
New project! @btwnthefjords-uib.bsky.social to map biodiversity and ecosystems in #Bergen. Very first randomly located plot in Hanif Kawousi’s #PhD is in Nygårdsparken! @uibcet.bsky.social @cesam-uib.bsky.social @unibergen.bsky.social #EcoBudgets #DarkDiv #ProudSupervisor #ProfLife #PhDLife 🍃🏔️🌐🌍📏🧪
Thanks for joining us @sidsareen.bsky.social !

I have 1 more PhD-related news to share: my last PhD-article has finally been published!
In "Less emissions or less freight? Conflicting narratives for sustainable logistics in Norway" I compare public and business narratives of sustainable logistics. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
🥳 New publication! In this paper, we investigate whether people in a WEIRD country (Norway) acknowledge a link between climate change and injustice, and, if so, what they consider to be unjust. doi.org/10.1111/1467...
@scandpolstud.bsky.social @uibcet.bsky.social
Climate change has cascading effects on critical infrastructure in ways that are deeply concerning. In this expert interview as part of the @klimastiftelsen.no @energiogklima.no series on '10 new insights in climate science', I share reflections on the challenge: www.energiogklima.no/to-grader/ek...
In this new paper from @uibcet.bsky.social, we explore what makes experiments stick. By assessing four experiments in the cities of Bergen and Groningen, we find that persistent relational work is crucial in embedding experiments.
Link to paper: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
In the next phase of the study, we used real and recent examples of climate news with different anchoring and visuals, to explore sensemaking in depth. Also out today, in Journalism!
