Proud to announce the website for our biodiversity project. Now you can follow our progress as we record plant, bird, and invertebrate species on #Koltur.

Faroese lake studies rock! A two days workshop with colleagues from 🇫🇴 & 🇮🇸 museums and the #FishFAR project about status, trends and future perspectives for freshwater ecosystems at Faroe Islands #Tjodsavnid @GranskingF @AgnesKreiling @FBL_UCPH @DrRagnhildur #Holar_University

Interested in a PhD project on the importance of land-lake interactions and carbon cycling for high-latitude ecosystems at @UCPH_Research ?
Then check this opportunity at @BIO_UCPH out. https://t.co/mkHI48Y1t1. Deadline 15th Sep

This year's field season for our lake ecology project is coming to an end. Great to collaborate with such an excellent team from @FBL_UCPH and @hu_biology.

Arctic charr and trout co-occur in lake #Leynarvatn at the #FaroeIslands but trout is way more abundant. A fish survey a few days ago will reveal if Arctic charr is pushed to the limits by environmental changes. @AgnesKreiling #HolarUniversity @FBL_UCPH @UFM_MIN @GranskingFo

Blessed with nice land- and lakescapes during our sampling tour around #FaroeIslands. Filtrations for carbon and chlorophyll analyses are done in the back of the car. @FBL_UCPH @AgnesKreiling

[Kirsten Seestern Christoffersen @KirstenSeestern]

These days we are running a sampling program in Faroes Islands lakes in corporation with the #FishFAR project. Soon colleagues from the Hólar University (Iceland) and the Faroe Islands National Museum will join. Co-financed by @GranskingFo and @UFM_MIN. @AgnesKreiling @FBL_UCPH

Twitter's iconic bird isn't the only one disappearing. Today, one in eight bird species are at risk of extinction. But we can save them and their habitats – benefiting people and nature across the globe. RT to spread the word! #TwitterX#TwitterLogo

About last night: Here’s the moment at 4:12am when the cone collapsed at the Litli Hrútur eruption leading to a changed direction in the lava flows coming from the crater (captured by @RUVfrettir’s live stream at https://t.co/bNPJME7xYT) #volcano #iceland

What happens when a bunch of Dipterologists spend a week in the Faroes? Lots of new species records of course! https://t.co/QX8i7iNA54

Today is one of the rare sunny days in the Faroes. Makes fieldwork on #Koltur so much more enjoyable! Butterflies, Trichoptera and Diptera are hilltopping on the highest point of the island - let's see what ends up in our Malaise trap. #Tjóðsavnið

[Agnes Kreiling @AgnesKreiling]

Big thanks to @AshWhiffin at the @NatSciNMS for giving us a tour through the collection facilities. The highlights were (of course) beetles and flies - even some royal specimens!

[Natural Sciences NMS @NatSciNMS]

Today @AshWhiffin hosted colleagues from the Department of Terrestrial Zoology at the Faroe Islands National Museum. A shared appreciation for #DungBeetles was found! 💩🪲

Little weekend getaway with @AgnesKreiling includes hotpot, flounder spotting & an intro into birding 🐦🐟

[Theresa Henke @theresahenke.bsky.social @TheresaHenke2]

Come and spend some time in the beautiful Westfjords & work on your scientific projects with this fellowship ☺️🇮🇸
The only catch, you have to present your work at a cooperating university ☺️

Open full-time position for a botanist at #Tjóðsavnið, the Faroe Islands National Museum. Can't promise good weather but the great colleagues will try to make up for that. Application deadline is 10th May.

#Insectmonitoring with #cameratraps is hard for several reasons. Our new #Deeplearning models and #openaccess image dataset just made this a bit easier. Great addition to the @MAMBO_EU
toolbox https://t.co/Us1Jrb1Ube

Do you want to spend the summer as a field assistant in a unique remote high-Arctic environment? Then read this job advertisement. We are hiring field assistants for vegetation surveys at Zackenberg Research Station, Northeastern Greenland see: https://t.co/07Fiewq9Ho

[Lars Holst Hansen @Lars_Holst]

Weirdest call from an Arctic fox I ever heard at Zackenberg ... ! SOUND UP!

[Agnes Kreiling @AgnesKreiling]

As soon as the sun is out and warming the ground, Notiophilus biguttatus is active on #Koltur. A common species here but it still makes me happy each time I see one.

[Agnes Kreiling @AgnesKreiling]

Short (and fun) survey on insect diversity, including your knowledge on parasitoid Hymenoptera. Please share and participate 🐜🪲🦗🦟🐝🪰
