Exciting news!
The European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) is moving its headquarters to the University of Reading.
This will create the world's largest cluster of weather and climate scientists, and I am thrilled to be part of it.

Water fleas can detect polarized light reflected by algal cells and other particles - potential food items.
💧🔬
This ability influences their orientation and direction of movement.

Scapholeberis are water fleas. They feed on algae & bacteria from the surface film.
💧🔬
Their forehead is often armoured with a horn. Asexual eggs hatch in the female brood pouch. Adults can live for a few months.

Scapholeberis live in temperate and boreal environments, feeding on algae and bacteria from the surface film. They hang upside-down and filtrate food by gliding forward. These animals are around 1mm long.
