Do you ever think about how your research affects your participants? A nice case study I worked on evaluating the impacts of citizen panels for the Branching Out project.

[Forest Research Society and Env. Research Group @FR_SERG]

How discussing the value of trees in citizen panels influenced participants in our Branching out UK Treescapes project https://t.co/PnekY9zxwR @UK_Treescapes @Forest_Research @UniOfYork @OpenUniversity @lborouniversity

New paper out looking at how land managers might respond to emerald ash borer in light of their experiences experiences with ash dieback. We found that land managers' personal values for ash increased their likelihood to undertake surveillance https://t.co/rMItaoyk4Y

Early detection strategies for invading tree pests: Targeted surveillance and stakeholder perspectives 🌳

@AshTreescapes team just published a surveillance map for potential incursions of the emerald ash borer in GB, a useful tool in biosecurity 🪲

@CCRI_UK @FR_SERG @Forest_Research @rural_gis @NatForestCo @whiteroseforest @NorthernForest_ Now I need your help to find the respondents I need to answer these questions. I want to hear from everyone! If you are aware of any organisations who work in my target areas who might be able to help, please comment or retweet and tag. I greatly appreciate any help I can get!🙏

📢Please help spread the word about my PhD survey on tree planting
How does planting affect human values and wellbeing? Thread below 🌳🌲
Help me find respondents from The National Forest, Leeds and the Skipton area. Chance to win a £50 voucher https://t.co/r7GUrMMnoe

[Berglind Karlsdóttir @junglebergs]

@CCRI_UK @FR_SERG @Forest_Research @rural_gis @NatForestCo @whiteroseforest @NorthernForest_ I have been spending time in the case study areas, looking at different types of planting sites and encouraging people to complete the survey.
You can read more about the research here: https://t.co/5LAQ56V6Km

[Berglind Karlsdóttir @junglebergs]

@CCRI_UK @FR_SERG @Forest_Research @rural_gis @NatForestCo @whiteroseforest @NorthernForest_ And how do people experience changes from tree planting over time? Does familiarity with the landscape come in here too? I will repeat the survey in 4 years to see how changes to planting sites affect people’s perceptions and experiences of these places.

[Berglind Karlsdóttir @junglebergs]

@CCRI_UK @FR_SERG @Forest_Research @rural_gis @NatForestCo @whiteroseforest @NorthernForest_ We know tree planting has numerous benefits to society and especially local residents, but we can do more to understand the drivers and barriers to positive impacts on an individual level. What leads someone to perceive tree planting positively or negatively?

[Berglind Karlsdóttir @junglebergs]

@CCRI_UK @FR_SERG @Forest_Research @rural_gis @NatForestCo @whiteroseforest @NorthernForest_ Trees are a key solution to climate change and the UK has the lowest tree cover in Europe. So, large scale tree planting is being encouraged around the country. I want to know what this means for people who live near key tree planting sites.

Quick group photo of our SERG Social Science team at #Groundswell23 before setting off back home. But this is just the beginning! If you're a farmer and you're thinking about woodland creation or tree health, we would love to hear about your experiences 🧑‍🌾🌳

[Berglind Karlsdóttir @junglebergs]

Have a look at this thread on SERG's thoughts on connecting forestry and farming, inspired by the ICF Annual Conference #FarmingAndForestry

[Forest Research Society and Env. Research Group @FR_SERG]

Great start to the ICF 'Connecting Trees, Farmers and Forestry' conference this morning. We especially note the conversations around the role of trees within farming identities and cultures. SERG have a few more thoughts on this, see below ⬇️ #FarmingandForestry

[Berglind Karlsdóttir @junglebergs]

Enjoying the Royal Geographic Society mid-term conference where I got the chance to present my literature review results to fellow PhD students. Very much enjoying all the interesting talks which I'll be drawing inspiration from for the next chapter of my PhD journey 🤓

[Berglind Karlsdóttir @junglebergs]

Look forward to presenting our recent research on improving knowledge systems to support farmers in managing their trees 🌳👨‍🌾
Hope to see you there.

Nice day out with the team 😊

[Forest Research Society and Env. Research Group @FR_SERG]

The oak processionary moth alternative control methods groups are enjoying the opportunity discover the beautiful veteran oak trees of @WindsorGtPark. A great break between presentations and discussions about the potential development of novel methods for the management of OPM

[Berglind Karlsdóttir @junglebergs]

I kicked off #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek by attending the first session of #AccessToNature, a six session partnership led by the @BarnwoodTrust and the Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership. Look forward to thinking more about Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in my research
