Breaking a long period of social media silence to say that I am delighted that my first paper has been published in Water Research!

Climbing back under my rock for the time being to get the rest of the PhD done. Further submissions pending...

@Jimbo_Rand @EcosubL @DwrCymru @bathenganddes Good luck!

[Tomo Homan @HomanTomo]

More details can be found here: https://t.co/uQEKXf6jY1 . This scheme is helping me improve my knowledge of freshwater ecology and provides a great compliment to the water-quality modelling work I am doing as part of my PhD research. #citizenscience #chalkstreams #waterquality

Busy week last week - presenting my research at #WWEM2022 midweek and then training on the weekend for the "Smart Rivers" scheme.

[Tomo Homan @HomanTomo]

#SmartRivers is a national citizen science scheme designed to fill the gaps in important ecological river monitoring. It involves collecting kick samples and mapping the invertebrate biodiversity of each stream to understand the specific pressures they are exposed to.

@_aprilhayes Haha I know that must be annoying to read 😂 I think maybe the 'trying to go so fast part' is what makes me hate it

[Tomo Homan @HomanTomo]

Very pleased to get a sub 1:45 min time for the #bathhalf and raise money for Bath RAG charities. I don't really like running, and I don't do as much training as I should, so I had to fight hard for that. Longest run complete ✅

[Tomo Homan @HomanTomo]

Thank you. It was a rewarding experience and I took a lot of inspiration from seeing "in-person" how my research fits in to the overall picture of challenges facing the water industry right now #WWEM2022

[WIRC @ Bath @WIRCBath]

Congratulations @HomanTomo for making it to the finals of the @WaterSensors ECR poster competition. Glad you had such a good time at the #WWEM2022 conference too!

Great that our early career colleagues are fully engaging with the UK water sector.

@BardenRuth Thanks Ruth

@Blacky_Himself River Frome in Dorset 🙂

[Tomo Homan @HomanTomo]

Another full day taking water-quality samples on the River Frome. Two more sondes installed too. It feels great to be finally executing something that's taken months of planning

[Tomo Homan @HomanTomo]

@Jimbo_Rand Thanks James, hope all your fieldwork state-side went well and hope to catch up soon

[Tomo Homan @HomanTomo]

On a day when "drought conditions" have been declared across most of the country, we have been installing water-quality sensors in the R.Frome, Dorset (and sewage works). We desperately need some rainfall though. River levels are so low

[Tomo Homan @HomanTomo]

Not a day to be wearing waders 🥵🥵

Paid summer internship monitoring the fate and transport of river pollutants in a Dorset chalk stream.

Unfortunately I only have one photo from the event - the prize winner for best poster design - awarded to Franek, congrats! @GW4FreshCDT

[Tomo Homan @HomanTomo]

Great to catch up with my peers and hear about the impact of their research at yesterdays @WIRCBath poster event. Some great posters and congrats to all winners! Plus a thank you to all those organising the event

New short #blog post on the #fieldwork plans I have this year for my #PhD and how it fits in to my research objectives https://t.co/nr1azVANz7
