So excited that our contribution to this amazing network is now published @Nature. Read the paper for free: rdcu.be/eg3eA
Our 2nd Canadian #fieldwork project for this summer is now running! Trying to discover what species should occur in #boreal forests but are missing as part of #DarkDivNet led by @MacroecologyUT. Here is gorgeous pink lady's slipper (Cypripedium acaule). Ain't bad @plantsci?
From snowy Vancouver ❄️ to frozen Yellowknife 🧊, it was a good week discussing landscape carbon and opportunities for nature based climate solutions 🌲🌳 Thanks @GNWT_ECC for helping to organize!



Excited about microbial genomics, environmental change, and single-cell analysis? Join us as a postdoc @ecochangegroup! Postdoctoral Fellow in Environmental Microbial Genomics @ecochangegroup Trent University See the full job description on jobRxiv: jobrxiv.org/job/trent-univ……
Thank you @alannealottawa @cbcradio for having us on to discuss water quality🌊 and our exciting @KillamTrusts award🏅! cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…
Cleaner water starts with better data. 💧 #TrentU's Dr. Andrew Tanentzap, CRC in Climate Change & Northern Ecosystems @ecochangegroup receives @KillamTrusts Fellowship to advance affordable, AI-powered water quality testing. 🔗 read more: trentu.ca/news/story/426…
Honoured to be one of the two teams receiving the inaugural @KillamTrusts NRC Paul Corkum Fellowship. Our project aims to develop sensors to empower real-time water quality monitoring. 🌊
Let’s celebrate science! The Killam NRC Paul Corkum Fellowships recipients were announced this week. Learn more about these talented scientists and their collaborative research projects. ow.ly/ytGm50VWFLx #DiscoverTheNRC #NRCNanotech #NRCCleanEnergy @KillamTrusts
Back in the field to complete our Spring sampling campaign 🌸 This year we are studying how soils contribute to the lakes they surround. How does carbon flow from land into water? What happens to soil carbon when it meets water? Important questions for climate change mitigation

Thank you @EawagResearch for the invite to talk about our work. What an inspiring turnout and environment! Plenty of potential for synergy between our mass spec facilities @TrentWQC.




Lots of learning, old and new friends, and excellent discussion about complex organic mixtures this week @ICBM_uol @hanse-ias.bsky.social 🇩🇪 including an outstanding talk by @ecfreewoman.bsky.social. Future of the field looks bright! 🤩



What happens when 300+ scientists analyse the same data? Not the same answer! Lessons about staying open to alternate explanations, don't rush to judge, more than one "truth" in nature🤔 Grateful to contribute to this amazing initiative. Read it for free: doi.org/10.1186/s12915…
