Grateful to have shared our Finnish perspective here on the land provided by Māori, the inviting and inspiring atmosphere created by NZSSS and @SoilScienceAust, the hospitality of all Aussies and Kiwis! Many insights and a great learning opportunity 📚

How can we store more carbon in our parks? My first conference talk at the #LahdenTiedePäivä was succesful!

It was a fun experience with great questions and discussions!

Initial field work for our MSc student @tifanychai's project is complete after 3 days in #Lahti city parks! She's testing if #biochar (generously donated by GRK Finland) can reduce the negative impacts of dog urine on urban park soils. @UrbanEcos @UHEcoEnvi @UCLahti

We are distributing 10,000 bags of Finnish meadow flower seeds to residents and encouraging everyone to create more meadows for the enjoyment of pollinators and people. 🐝 🌻

Very nice carabid meeting in Budapest where @JohanKotzeHY and @BasileFinand presented their work on the impact of urbanization on beetles! 🪲
Thanks @21stECM for the organization and for promoting connections between European carabidologists. #21stECM

Urbarian kaupunkikeskustelut osa 1: kaupunkiniityt 🌻
Videolla @PasiPouta ja Tuuli Ylikotila keskustelevat mm. niittyjen merkityksestä kaupunkiluonnon monimuotoisuudelle ja kaupunkiniittyihin liittyvästä asennemuutoksesta.

Ruusuruoho kertoo, että niitty voi hyvin – Pikkulaukku taas voi auttaa niittykasveja imemällä elinvoiman vahvemmilta lajeilta 🌱

The # of urban dogs is growing & they're doing 99% of their peeing outside (hopefully?) in parks & on streets & sidewalks. This can have BIG effects on street-trees & urban soils. Read the latest in @Slate, featuring yours truly😊

Kasvibiologi Pasi Poudan kenttätyön tuloksena syntyy ekologista ja yhteiskuntatieteellistä tietoa, jonka avulla uusniittyjen eli ihmisen kokonaan rakentamien tai voimakkaasti muokkaamien niittyjen lajiston monimuotoisuutta voidaan lisätä. #niityt (https://t.co/BouorYR6O1)
