Headline EU_ScienceHub: Distribution of #bumblebees across #Europe In the #data paper, published with us, #JRC & STEP mapped the distribution of the 47 most common bumblebee species, known to be vital #pollinators ec.europa.eu/jrc/en/news/di… #ecosystemservices #ESP18EU

I love fieldwork, especially when bees are involved. Come rain or shine. Today was rain, wind and cold with a hint of shine....... Not my favourite combination but when there's a job to be done...#getonwithit PoshBee Project Jane Stout Simon Hodge Irene Bottero 🐝 The Bee Centre 🐝

Today we swapped the oil seed office for apple orchards for PoshBee Project #WP1 #Fieldwork with @Rosstopher223 & Dr. Louise Hutchinson

BEEP base keeps an👁️& an👂! on #bee hives Great write up by @bencoxworth for New Atlas: newatlas.com/good-thinking/… Within #BGOOD we will further expand the #opensource BEEP system towards an EU-wide database, monitoring & decision-making platform #beehealth #apiculture Marten Schoonman

Get to know your #bees! The BEEP base provides a complete measurement system that tells you all about the weight, sound and temperature of your #honey bees. And a BEEP app that helps you track your bzzz data! #pollinators #beehealth

B-GOOD developed 6 bee health technologies monitoring: 📳honeybee vibrations 🌡️ gas and spatially resolved temperature ☠️bee counters ☣️pesticide residue 🤒viruses 🧬genetic imprint

The B-GOOD aim is to provide the #beekeepers with a healthy & #sustainable decision-making tool, powered by comprehensive analysis and data flow from the #beehives and their environment.

Not long left to apply for the #Research Fellow Post-Doctoral Position & become part of the #BGOOD team The position Nottingham Trent University will underpin fundamental research into honey #beehealth & the automated monitoring of #hives vacancies.ntu.ac.uk/displayjob.asp… #Honeybee #apiculture
