Happy Women's Day!

Did you know that Maynooth University has been ranked in the top 7% of universities globally for its research on the study of gender equality, policies on gender equality and commitment to recruiting and promoting women?

[Maynooth Geography @Maynoothgeog]

On #IWD2024 it is perfect timing to showcase the fantastic research that some of our @Maynoothgeog @ICARUS_Maynooth colleagues are doing. Check out the #blog post here. #WomenInScience #WomenInSTEM #Geography @MaynoothUni @MU_Research https://t.co/p6d276bK8i

Today is #NationalMeadowsDay! 🥳 The loss of our uplifting hay meadow habitats in the UK makes my heart hurt, so I want to share with you the secret for turning your lawn into a mini wildflower meadow for *free* 👊

It’s hard to capture how beautiful it is in these floodplain meadows

My first time ever seeing rare beech fern (Phegopteris connectilis), here in Glenveagh NP, Donegal.

Many thanks to Head Gardener Seán O Gaoithin for pointing it out.

Scorching hot again in Southern Europe with temperatures locally into the high 40s Celsius.

A collection of all-time records have fallen...

[Ó Foghlú @rayofoghlu]

Walking around it always strikes me that the best way to start a real recovery of native woodlands is to allow the pockets which remain to expand naturally.

Presently these are often actively suppressed whilst we pay for woodland creation elsewhere

I made a short video about it

Great talk by @NCahill_Stat at @InquaRoma2023 chatting about all things statistics and multiple proxy modelling focusing on hydroclimate in Australia 💧

#Biodiversity is critical to our society and quality of life.

The EU biodiversity strategy for 2030 sets out a path to become more sustainable and bring back nature into our lives.

For those who are keeping track, we are now at 13 consecutive days with record global (60S-60N) temperatures, since satellite era measurements began in 1979, likely the 13 hottest days on a global scale over the last 100,000+ years.

And now temperatures are going back up again.

"It could scarcely be more screwed up.

The effort to protect Earth systems and the human systems that depend on them is led by people working at the margins with tiny resources, while the richest + most powerful use every means at their disposal to stop them."

A *crucial* read.

[Eoghan Daltun 🌍 @IrishRainforest]

Outside of fungi season, it's easy to forget about the network of filaments under your feet when walking in a forest.

But it's there, some breaking down deadwood, others working away in symbiosis with the trees, providing pathways for the exchange of information and nutrients.
