Day 4 of #ENVS8407 fieldwork, and some great news: NO #microplastics + minimal macro trash!! #ManlyBeach keeping it clean!! @MQBiology @MQEarthEnv @TrethMeg @DrKDafforn

[Dr Katherine Dafforn @DrKDafforn]

Unfortunately, a rainbow of plastic colours from our beach debris transects today and too many cigarette butts! ⁦@MQEarthEnv⁩ ⁦@AUSMAP_AU⁩ ⁦@Jessica_OHare⁩ ⁦@TrethMeg⁩

After many late nights wondering around Sydney Harbour, 1000s of photo-quadrats and a getting to know my mate ALAN - I have submitted my Master of Research thesis!
“Investigating the impact of artificial light at night on marine intertidal assemblages”

Love getting outside and doing field work - this time wading through the seagrass meadows of Lake Macquarie

#Lightpollution is one of the most pervasive forms of environmental change that ecosystems are facing. NERAL is working to understand how our artificial light at night (#ALAN) is impacting the natural world. 💡

[Meg Trethewy @TrethMeg]

Another round of #ALANMQ sampling currently underway - this time introducing lights to a dark rocky shore to see if there will be any influence on intertidal grazing patterns

Finished up another round of #artificiallightatnight sampling in Sydney Harbour for my Masters of Research project - so good to be back out in the field after iso! #ALANMQ

[Meg Trethewy @TrethMeg]

✨ Darkest night of the year tonight - keen to shine some light on how much ALAN brightens up the night ✨

We have transformed the night-time environment in a very short time, relative to evolutionary timescales.

Nocturnal wildlife hasn't had time to adjust. https://t.co/uwgXllnfi2
