Assessment of trawling impacts on 10 Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem indicator taxa (e.g. cold-water corals) across New Zealand waters show that 30 years of trawling reduced VME area by 20.8 %, with losses up to 40.7 % in some bioregions.

I think that was my favourite as well. I wanted to walk into the painting and live there!

Ooh. How exciting! See you next week. We'll done.
Oh my word! Botanist about to explode! Just unboxed my presentation copies of Urban Plants & I’m as giddy as a bee in a bellflower. It’s a beautiful thing, from the gorgeous Carry Akroyd cover to the photos kindly provided by many lovely people. Hope you enjoy it www.bloomsbury.com/uk/urban-pla...
Some of the 100+ Marsh Fritillaries I saw today at Finglandrigg Wood NNR near Carlisle.

Thanks for the heads up @carriann.bsky.social
New Queen* in the hive today! A result of supercedure whereby bees select a new queen without swarming. Our Conservation MSc students get to learn about beekeeping and this is the first time we've seen this on a field visit.(*with dot) 👑👩🎓 @paulcross.bsky.social @bangoruniversity.bsky.social
Nice study. A future subject for a book for @trevorthebotanist.bsky.social

Fabulous final day of fieldwork for MSc Conservation & Land Management students, assessing changes in dune vegetation communities at Aberffraw. Lots of wonderful plants, some swimming, and a bit of a grass-fest @paulcross.bsky.social @bangoruniscience.bsky.social @bangoruniversity.bsky.social
Bracken control, the field trials, with @paulcross.bsky.social
They also decided to test a novel method of bracken control, concluding that it was very effective, sustainable and fun, if a bit disorienting #students #MenWiilBeBoys #EndOfTerm @paulcross.bsky.social @bangoruniversity.bsky.social
Students completing a great day in the meadows of @trevorthebotanist.bsky.social Quadrats, sweep netting and beating trays for the MSc Conservation and Land Management. #What'snottolike @bangoruniscience.bsky.social bangoruniversity.bsky.social
I blame the lecturer #learningthroughplay

Paper alert! I'm happy to share that my first research paper has been published! 🐝🌸
Road verges can support #pollinators but their potential for preserving representatively diverse and even communities is limited, due in part to high densities of non-native plants.
