Having a great time so far at #EGU24 !

I'll be giving a talk tomorrow afternoon in BG4.1 (after lunch in room 2.23)

Title: Blue carbon additionality: New insights from the radiocarbon content of saltmarsh soils and their respired CO2.

📢We are excited to announce a new international partnership between WWF and GO-BC 📢

This partnership will promote equitable access to educational opportunities in #bluecarbon science across the globe, and increase capacity in regions where these ecosystems are at risk.

📢Do you want to or need to know how much organic carbon (OC) accumulates in Great British saltmarshes.

New Natural Environment Research Council funded research has quantified that all GB saltmarshes accumulate 46563 ± 4353 tonnes of OC annually.

Nice work George Elliot Biddulph, looks great!

Don't forget - The closing date for a great PhD opportunity in #BlueCarbon connectivity across Scotland's estuarine environments is the end of this week!

Fantastic mangrove trip to Luni, Gujarat-India last week with Alex Houston Tom Worthington
Met local communities & other people who conserve this unique mangrove site 🌿

📢Update on the #SaltmarshCode ! The team are currently drafting the code with a pilot version to be available from summer 2024 for testing and feedback.

We predict V1 of the Saltmarsh Code will be fully operational by summer 2025

#bluecarbon SUPER Doctoral Training Partnership St Andrews Geography & SD

What a scene to wake up to! Just landed in India for a UN #Bluecarbon workshop hosted in Ahmedabad and Bhuj.

Looking forward to seeing Shrutika Parihar following our SUPER Doctoral Training Partnership exchange last year.
