No country in the world has recorded as many lightning strikes as Spain in recent days.

Do you work in the UK food or #agriculture sector?
We're interested hearing your perceptions of #climate change adaptation in the UK food system in order to build resilience to weather and climate extremes.

The recovery/phenotyping process of #Puccinia graminis aecidiospores from #Berberis leaves on a set of wild grasses & cultivated cereals has just started @INRAE_Bioger 🤗. This aims to provide info on the potential primary host (and f. sp.) and collect isolates in uredinial form.

The paper from Rosace et al. 'Including climate change in pest risk assessment: Current practices and perspectives for future implementation' is now Open Access in the EPPO Bulletin. It provides detailed guidance for those considering this new challenge.

@gregtourte Great news Greg!

[Will Petty 🌳🌳 @Microlambert]

Not very seasonal, but I finally got round to making a map of UK train stations + walkable campsites. Shows campsites that are <3km from stations (i.e. basically next door), and 10-20km away (i.e. very roughly a day's walk). Useful? https://t.co/fIdVS7GVl9

I am please to announce a 3-year climate modelling postdoc in my group (Stockholm University) to investigate the ocean evolution and climate transitions through geologic time, deadline 15 January 2023. For more info and how to apply email me or check, https://t.co/ThBwjieao7

New paper! Irrigation can cause new green bridges for wheat stem rust. https://t.co/k1xcAV4iz7. With co-authors @imthursty @JWillockSmith @monatamas @cam_plantepi @CIMMYT @MetOffice_Sci

[Dr Catherine Bradshaw @ClimateCb]

@micefearboggis Just kidding. I like open access restriction-free data too. Not sure what you want with my Miocene paleoclimate data though?

[Dr Catherine Bradshaw @ClimateCb]

@micefearboggis So you don’t want to use my data then?

[Dr Catherine Bradshaw @ClimateCb]

@micefearboggis I thought the email telling me about the closure of your account must have signalled your departure John - more remote well wishes for the future!
