What a great morning at the Materials Science Institute Lancaster Plastic waste & micro plastic conference. Our keynote Prof Gay Hawkins on the material social futures of plastic. Followed by our fab PhD students getting us to question the value, challenges & future of plastics #Transdisciplinary

Lots of talk about #BlueGreenAlgae (#cyanobacteria) blooms in the media. Read our joint statement with @UKCEH and Lancaster University Lancaster Environment Centre on how they occur, impacts and what can be done to control them #ScienceEngagement #LoveWindermere #Algae fba.org.uk/fba-voice/cyan…



Processing for isotope and other analyses already began this evening - huge thanks to Dan Harvey Emilee Severe Sam Cusworth Ph.D. and to Ollie for their hard work and humour 😀



Our new study finds: Semi-synthetic Rayon microfibers, may be not considered traditional #microplastics, pose risks in marine micropollution due to their toxicity in mussels and interaction with POPs like PCBs. 🌊🪡 doi.org/10.1016/j.jhaz… SDU Science Department of Biology at SDU DK Frie Forsk.fond



Final preparations this morning for our next #BigWindermereSurvey Huge amount of effort behind the scenes from the Lancaster Environment Centre and Freshwater Biological Association (FBA) team to organise and run these events. Look forward to meeting our #citizenscience volunteers around #Windermere tomorrow 💧📈🔬


Final part of today's #BigWindermereSurvey with Freshwater Biological Association (FBA) just completed in the Lancaster Environment Centre laboratories - 107 sites around #Windermere + lakes and streams in the wider catchment sampled by our fantastic #citizenscience volunteers 👏🏼👏👏🏾 Analyses start first thing tomorrow!


1/2 Good to speak with Naga Munchetty as part of the BBC Radio 5 Live piece on water quality in #Windermere today. Listen again to material on water quality, nutrients, bacteria and the #BigWindermereSurvey from 1 hour 5 minutes on BBC Sounds ⬇️ bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
