The collaborative power of 10 PhD students.. Competition to create a suspension bridge from paperclips and paper.. We took this very seriously and it held 2.5kg of weight. #winners #phdlife #formandfunction

Euphoria in plenary of #COP24 as the #ParisAgreement Work Programme, the operating guidelines of the agreement, are adopted by all governments, three years after the historic agreement was clinched

Had a great day at my Masters graduation University of Leeds. So happy to be awarded the Met Office prize for outstanding performance! Thank you Piers Forster and Maria Beger for all your support! #LeedsGrad18

For the past 6 months I’ve been working on a new project - using novel photographic techniques to capture the micro world of insects. I combined over 500 photos to produce this image of a honeybee - Apis mellifera #photography #entomology #macro #insects #SonyAlpha

"Unusually warm ocean temperatures cause bleaching, putting considerable strain on coral reefs' ability to recover".What is coral bleaching?What are coral reefs made of?Adele Dixon writes about the most biologically diverse marine ecosystem in the world theclimatepress.com/blog

Do you wish you were by the sea right now?🌅 🐟🦀😎 Sorry! We can't make that happen, but you can submerge yourself in our latest blog from Adele Dixon and learn a bit more about coral reefs 👉 theclimatepress.com/blog

Thanks to Leeds Museums & Galleries for trusting me to photograph such a special insect: Sloane’s Urania. This moth has been extinct for 100 years, and good specimens are incredibly rare. So to do it justice, this is my most detailed image yet #nature #insects #photography #cupoty

Last week the #IPCC released another special report #SROCC assessing the scientific evidence supporting the impacts of #ClimateChange on the oceans and cryosphere. In our blog Adele Dixon talks about what this means for our beautiful coral reefs theclimatepress.com/the-future-of-…

I’m excited to be at New Scientist Live this week with the British Ecological Society discussing photography/ecology and showcasing my work for the #IncredibleCreatures feature. Here’s a preview of what I’ll have on show - from life-size to super-size, the European honeybee #NSLive2019

Only a few days left to get your applications in! If you're doing #PhD University of Leeds with a link to #climate then take a look at becoming a Priestley Climate Scholar... @LeedsDocCollege @LeedsPGR

our new paper by the great Adele Dixon and Maria Beger looks at how climate change can be better considered in #coral conservation esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/fe…

Assessing reef vulnerability to climate change needs environmental projections AND ecological starting points and community-specific differences in responses - obvious, but still needs to be said esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… Scott Heron Prof Emma L Johnston AO FAA FTSE @GrettaPecl Sonia Bejarano Audrey Darnaude
