[SMARTIES @AshTreescapes]

It has been just over 6 months since SMARTIES @AshTreescapes started. We are now developing a map for #ashtrees, a stakeholder map to understand attitudes towards surveillance and management, and a model of the potential spread of the emerald ash borer #EAB in the UK. Stay tuned!

[SMARTIES @AshTreescapes]

We will focus on ash. The health of UK ash is already affected by Ash Dieback and will be further impacted by Emerald Ash Borer should it arrive

How should we manage our trees?

a @NERCscience collaboration by @Rothamsted @Forest_Research @SalfordUni @UniOfYork will investigate

@wizzair Flight from Luton-Warsaw on Sept. 24th at 7:45 pm. Half of the people wearing face-mask under their nose, another bunch as eye-masks instead and some didn’t even bother. Zero social distancing while disembarking. No compliance enforced by flight attendants. Not safe at all.

Tree saviour: imported tree seedlings often bring pests and diseases with them but longer-term grant schemes, to allow nurseries to plan their tree planting, and higher import duties, to encourage the sale of locally-grown plants, could relieve problems @plantsci @BBSRC

Spaniards built churches atop Aztec temples to displace Mexica religion. Maybe also a practical decision? https://t.co/a2pbf6lhDB
