I love sharing the magic of peat with others and grateful for the platform provided by British Ecological Society
I'm delighted to hear that some of my enthusiasm was shared by the judges and audience at #BES2023

I am so pleased to share that the first publication from my PhD has been accepted by FEMS! We found that Arctic cyanobacterial mat community diversity decreases with latitude across the Canadian Arctic... and talk a lot about #protists along the way! doi.org/10.1093/femsec…

So happy to see the Falklands becoming more fire resilient!

Had a wonderful time presenting my recent work on CongoPeat at #EGU24 in BG3.18 thankyou to the convenors for such an insightful and exciting session! 🍃🌳

Lovey to speak to so many people about their work, share some magic of the Falklands and pick up some tips!

We have a great line-up of talks, posters and other activities at #EGU24 next week. Good luck to everyone taking part whether in Vienna or online!

See our schedule here: ceh.ac.uk/news-and-media…

First time at #EGU24 talking about emissions from Falkland peat. It's lovely to be joining two other Leicester Geography students Hannah Sellers and Maria B Mills (she / her) sharing their work! #peat

This is literally one of the best workshops I've done during my PhD and has brought me fully back in love with maths again, I can't wait to try some gaussian processes on my own data!

New PhD Opportunity: 'Evaluating the relative importance of the largest natural carbon sinks in Patagonia'. Working with fjord and peatland sediments at University of Exeter and ParisSaclay.

Looking back at an exciting 2023:PhD student Katy Ross completed an annual cycle of GHG measurements in the Falklands,carried out microbiological sampling & presented her preliminary research at both IUCN UK Peatlands & BES Peatlands and Wetlands SIG 🌱 conferences Now on with the data analysis & writing

Lovely to give a semi spontaneous talk to the students of Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle and get me thinking after their insightful questions

Pleased to announce our new #PeatPaper ⬇️

Six Decades of Changes in Pool Characteristics on a Concentric-Patterned Raised Bog (Colson et al., 2023)

Many thanks to my co-authors Paul J. Morris Mark Smith Duncan Quincey Håkan Rydin and Gustaf Granath

On Friday Katy Ross presented some of her preliminary findings at Europe's largest Ecology conference #BES_2023
Want to experience Falklands peatlands too? Watch this awesome short by #falklandsfilmcompany Oly Dempster : vimeo.com/893106589

It's a joy to share this short by #FalklandIslandsFilmcompany who wanted to make a peaty film after coming to #Bogday2023 if you want to experience how wonderful but fragile Falkland Islands peatlands are, give it a watch!

Great to hear more about peatlands on the Falkands islands from Katy Ross ! #BES2023 #PeatTwitter

Grazing, Peat, Erosion and Emissions!
If you're at #BES2023 come along to S42 Hall 2B at 11:45 to hear all about how we've been trying to estimate emissions from these peatlands!

(Or to see at least one picture of a penguin)

Straight from the overnight ferry to do some bog bothering in Belfast before #BES2023 using it as a last bit of inspiration before my talk on all things carbon in Falkland peat on Friday

S42 Ecosystem and Functional Ecology at 11:45
