Walking across the lake ice on Braya Sø - the cracking is a bit disconcerting, but knowing that below the thawed then frozen surface there is an 80 cm ice layer is reassuring...

setting up coring, nice and tidy :) palecoevol.wordpress.com/2022/04/30/28-…

First #Daphnia hatched today from Greenland lake sediment! Time to go home.

Here are more pictures from our sampling campaign in Kangerlussuaq, Greenland for our #DFG project "Living time capsules: tracing #EvolutionaryAdaptation in a changing world". #Daphnia #paleogenomics #ResurrectionEcology IGB Berlin palecoevol.wordpress.com/latest-news/

Good news! 🦇🐝🌳🦠🐟🐌🍄 Following several requests, the deadline to submit your abstract for #BG22 has been extended to the end of this week.

Friendly #copepods and neighbours to the many #Daphnia in lake SS6 in Kangelussuaq, West Greenland.

Summer sampling in Greenland completed! With such an amazing team nothing can go wrong: Athena Karapli-Petritsopoulou (project PhD student IGB Berlin), James Shilland (UCL) and Dörthe Becker (left to right). We all had a memorable few days 🙃 - thank you so much!

A massive #algae bloom can be detected in the #Oder using #satellite data. Details of new analysis together with Brockmann Consult➡️igb-berlin.de/en/news/new-an… #Odra #Sentinel2.

Excited to share our work studying the evolutionary forces that shape genetic variation in phenotypic plasticity using Daphnia. Led by Dörthe Becker and in collaboration with Andrew Beckerman ⁩ nature.com/articles/s4155…

An Antarctic giant for you today: the scale worm Eulagisca gigantea. This awesome worm is covered in scales (not in pic, which is the underside of the worm) and golden chaetae (the chitinous bristles that polychaetes are named for). #NoVERMber 📸Matthew Brown / NIWA

Happy to announce that I will be recruiting two PhD students in 2023 working on questions in eco-evolutionary dynamics. Job ads attached. Feel free to retweet or share with those you think could be interested in these positions.

Great opportunity, and a cool topic - please spread the word!

You'll have to climb up ALL the stairs NOW to get the good evolution content in LH6: sex, clocks, and phenotypic plasticity! Kim Rohlfing Alexander Brandt, Dagmar Frisch, Athina Karapli-Petritsopoulou, Carolina Ortiz-Movliav, R. Reshma, Jule Neumann Carolina M. Peralta #dzg23

Congratulations to the #WPY59 #WildlifePhotographerOfTheYear Laurent Ballesta!🏆 His otherworldly image brings us below the waves to a living fossil - a tri-spine horseshoe crab. This species has survived over 100 million years but now faces extinction #WPY59 #WPYAwards Wildlife Photographer of the Year
