Another introduction! I’m Matthew Morgan, researching urban blue and green spaces in #Hull. My background is in marine and terrestrial ecology, and has mostly involved working on long-term research projects. I am passionate about the benefits of #urban #biodiversity for society.

Another introduction 🍃 I'm Kristy Adaway Kristy Adaway, and I'm doing a #PhD to investigate how studies of #animal #psychology can benefit #conservation efforts and change public attitudes in #wild #carnivores, supervised by F. Blake Morton at University of Hull Psychology @ HullUni 🦊🧩🧠🦡🐾

Final introduction to the University of Hull Rewild Cluster PhD team 🌍 I'm Clare Collins (yes, confusing, two Clare C's in the team!), investigating river #rewilding projects. I'm looking at improving models predicting how animal DNA in the environment #eDNA moves downstream 1/3

Heading home after an epic week collecting over 100 eDNA samples across the NCL Birchfield rewilding site!

On Tuesday Hull hosted the BES workshop on policy in ecology and the theme was Rewilding! We had great speakers discussing rewilding near and far and fantastic discussions around barriers to rewilding in policy #rewilding #rewildingscience #ecology BES Policy Yorkshire Wildlife Trust - follow us on Bluesky 🦋

What produced those ultrasonic calls? The Katydid, did! Katydids can create calls by scraping a modified vein, which is like a file, under their right wing (tegmen) against the edge of the left wing, creating a distinctive ultrasonic sound. #PhantomOrthoptera Wildlife Acoustics

"🎶Let it go, let it go… into the glacier! 🏔️ Researchers are harnessing Wildlife Acoustics recorders to capture the symphony of glacial meltwater, documenting a sound on the brink of extinction. 🎤❄️#ColdWeatherWebinar #GlacierMelody #WildlifeAcoustics #SoundinExtinction"

Fishermen in Vardø are building their own Kittiwake hotels 😊👌 Old fish boxes stacked on top of a storage container. So cool to see the care for nature when many other coastal communities are trying to scare the Kittiwakes away or prevent them from settling. Vardø win ✊

NEYEDC will be attending Molescroft Wildlife Network's 'Hedgehog Highways' event this Saturday, sharing with the network and the wider community how we can support them in making and utilising biological records 🦔 For more info: molescroftwn.org

The #HullCNC2024 is just three weeks away! 🤩 Records collected as part of @citnatchallenge in 2023 helped our understanding of biodiversity in Hull, shown by a massive increase in data coverage after the event. For more info on the 2024 event, see: neyedc.org.uk/hull-cnc-2024

Great day with University of Hull, meeting some of Hull's wildlife lovers, both community groups and individuals, at YWT's Empowerment Day in Hull last Sunday. Lots of interesting talks and great enthusiasm for the fast approaching #HullCNC2024. Hull CNC are you ready to go? 🔥

Thanks to everyone at #UKDNAWG24 for such a lovely response to my first ever talk!

Urban areas are key habitats for the Florida bonneted bat! 🌳 High tree coverage and open spaces in cities support bat activity, especially golf courses. Great to see urban integration in long-term efforts! 🦇 Wildlife Acoustics #BattyForBioacoustics

An irreplaceable asset not just to #Derringham but to #Hull #nature #biodiversity #ClimateCrisis #wellbeing
