According to United Nations, women represent one-third of all researchers. In 2023, women represented 24 out of 71 authors who have published in Geographia Polonica – 34%. Today the world celebrates #WomenInScience Day – all the best to our female colleagues!

Such a great team! The first meteorological and hydrological sensors were installed on forest peat bogs! There is a lot of water, we'll see how long this wet condition will last.

A short movie from our field trip. We explore mid-forest peat bogs, which are real treasures in the Polish landscape 💚

The weather is, let's say, average for the installation of sensors, but the team manages 💪

🥚Happy Easter to all of you🥚! There's also some fun to be had during challenging field work. The script was created spontaneously based on props from a local general store 😄. To protect the TOMST, we highly recommend the chicken net which inspired us to do so 🐥🐥🐣

Western Siberian #permafrost peatlands play an important role in shaping global climate, but despite that, this region remains understudied. The aim of my #PhD is to reconstruct the history of #peatlands in a discontinuous permafrost zone using a #multiproxy approach. 🔬🌍

The aim of my PhD is to explore baselines and #tippingpoints of peatland ecosystems via reconstructions of past #warming, #droughts and #fires and their impact on peatland resilience 🔥🌡️ My PhD is a part of #PEATFLAMES project Narodowe Centrum Nauki UAM Poznań Institute of Geography & Spatial Organization PAS

MIRECLIM project adventures Unless you got stuck in the sand in the middle of the #forest 🌳 and were rescued after 15 calls by a local forester with a tractor 🚜 you can't call it a successful #fieldwork

Spent a fascinating three days at the Society of Wetland Scientists European Chapter 19th Annual Meeting! Lots of interesting presentations and discussions. Very proud to have won 1st place in the Student and ECR presentation competition taking about my PhD research in Estonian #peatlands 💪🌿

Z ogromną radością ogłaszamy, że „Mapa Beniowskiego” przechowywana od 1962 roku w zbiorach naszej Biblioteki została wpisana na Polską Listę Krajową Programu UNESCO Pamięć Świata w jej 5. jubileuszowej edycji. 👏🥳 #MapaBeniowskiego #igsopas

The aim of my #PhD is to reconstruct summer temperature during #Holstein and #Eemian interglacials using #Chironomidae 🐛🌡️ the lack of human activity during these interglacials can help us to better understand current climate change 🌍 Funded by Narodowe Centrum Nauki

Konkurs na stanowisko naukowe! Jeśli myślicie o ekologii i chcecie zostać w PL, to nasza oferta jest niezła - Białowieża to fajne miejsce do życia i pracy, nasz Instytut dość sprawnie działa (obiecuję minimum biurokracji, która w polskich jednostkach bywa udręką), zespół nieduży

Last week we finished first year of fieldwork in MIRECLIM project 🎉 we measured #Sphagnum growth and collected samples for #testate amoeabe analysis from #peatlands in 🇵🇱🌿 we were unable to avoid destruction though, as wild animals threw a party at one site💃destroying some plots 🤷‍♀️

Another field trip behind us! This time, we retrieved our 1-year tea bags (TBI) and replaced them with a fresh set. Nature treated us to the blooming of **Ledum palustre** and **Eriophorum vaginatum**—a truly picturesque time of year!🐍
