Genus Russula is very diverse in colour. Distinguishing a specific species is difficult and requires a microscope. Taste is often helpful - the mild ones are edible and acrid and bitter ones are toxic. #nature #ecology #fungi #biodiversity

Today I had the pleasure of visiting the botanical garden at Uni Heidelberg. There is a wonderful collection of bog plants. 1) Drosera intermedia 2) Erica tetralix 3) Narthecium ossifragum 4) Comarum palustre. #peatlands #biodiversity #nature #ecology

Can I ask for help identifying the testate amoeba? I will be grateful for your help 🙃 Length = 45-60 μm Place = rich fen, Mongolia

I am attending a conference SGroup - Universities in Europe this week on the problems of the young scientist. Among other things, we're talking about different funding options for research, how to popularise science and the challenges of the peer review process. Great time at the Gabinete de Comunicación Universidad de Valladolid.

Mariusz Bąk from UAM Poznań has just finished his one-month internship at Institute of Geography & Spatial Organization PAS under the supervision of Michał Słowiński. The visit was related to the implementation of a project assessing the impact of industrial peat exploitation on the development of the Wieliszewskie Bagno 🧑‍🔬

I’m analysing the new peat core 😊 The project concerns the impact of industrial peat extraction on development of the Baltic-type raised bog „Wieliszewskie Bagna” in northern Poland. I’m looking forward to the final results. #plantmacrofossils #peatlands #palaeoecology

Torfowiska kotłowe są liderami akumulacji węgla, a ich średnie wartości są ok. 3 razy wyższe niż średnia europejska! Pokazują to badania pracowników #Climate Change #Ecology Research Unit z WNGiG #UAM. Zespołowi badawczemu przewodzi dr Moniki Karpińska-Kołaczek.

A nice day on wetlands celebrating #WorldWetlandsDay2024 w/ Mariusz Lamentowicz Mariusz Bąk & Daria Wochal

Properly celebrated #WorldWetlandsDay2024 with Katarzyna Marcisz Mariusz Bąk Daria Wochal and Ignacy!

Next day of visiting #peatlands in Tuchola #Forest. It is challenging to understand their past and present #hydrology!

It was an inspiring, fantastic, and funny Betula nana meeting in Gzin. We discussed our 11,700-year multi proxy record from Linje peatland. Mysterious weather this time. ☔️❄️🌫️ Lauren Marcisz Dominika Łuców Mariusz Bąk Daria Wochal Sandra Słowińska Michał Słowiński (group photo)

Get on board our lab! Poznań is waiting for you! 👊

Zachęcamy do zgłoszeń i serdecznie zapraszamy w maju do Suwalskiego Parku Krajobrazowego! 🐟🌱☀️

Back at the #EGU24 after 10 years 🤗 Lot's of interesting talks and posters! I'll have my poster presentation tomorrow so come and check out our #peatland-based #fire reconstruction! Mariusz Bąk Mariusz Lamentowicz UAM Poznań Narodowe Centrum Nauki

Really nice talk by Mariusz Lamentowicz at the #EGU24 conference. A lot of important words about the investigating ecological baselines and critical thresholds in ombrotrophic nemoral #peatlands.

A lot of interesting and inspiring talks. Thank you for everyone who visited my poster today at the #egu24. I’m glad I could present our palaeoecological and dendrochronological data supported by Narodowe Centrum Nauki. Katarzyna Marcisz Mariusz Lamentowicz Daria Wochal Paweł Matulewski

Lecimy z warsztatami na temat paleoekologii jezior i torfowisk realizowane w kooperacji z Uniwersytet Gdański UAM Poznań na Suwalszczyźnie. Bardzo luźna atmosfera choć intensywne działania w terenie, na pewno będą zakwasy ;) Sambor Czerwiński Daria Wochal Mariusz Bąk #peatlands

Ostatni dzień głębokich wierceń w wyjątkowym torfowisku kotłowym. Studenci angażują maksimum swojej energii w pracy z próbnikiem typu instorf! W efekcie tajemnica bagna już jest znana. 🕵️‍♂️🌀😅 Mariusz Bąk Daria Wochal Sambor Czerwiński Uniwersytet Gdański UAM Poznań
