Playing around with the new #DigitalEarthAu Wetlands Insight Tool functionality on the @QldEnvironment's WetlandMaps portal.
Amazing to be able to explore 30+ years of wetland dynamics based on terabytes of satellite data!

Day 2 of the #SEEA EEA Expert virtual Forum🌍
Great discussions on current issues:
✴️condition indicators
✴️aggregation
✴️spatial units
✴️socio-economic factors
Following this, possible solutions were identified to contribute towards the revision process!

We've had great feedback on our new animation explaining #NaturalCapitalAccounting - big thanks to illustrator Annie Forrester @an_na_mar and animator Aaron Ross for their fantastic work. Thanks to @EPAResearchNews ... Please watch & share! https://t.co/5jRlkxywZp
Healthy ecosystems can reduce the negative impacts of the #ClimateCrisis.
Ecosystem-based adaptation is an approach that uses ecosystem services as part of a holistic adaptation strategy & provides win-win outcomes to deal with these negative impacts.

I'm so excited to share my #firstpaper! I've always loved #Australian#reptiles and always thought there were massive deficiencies in their research. Here, we look at #spatialbias and highlight some key predictors of study locations.
