Today is the first leg of an entirely overland and sea journey from York to Breckenridge, CO. Just left York, UK and first stop is London. Then tomorrow we board the Cunard Queen Mary 2 in Southampton for a week across the Atlantic. Should get to Denver in almost exactly 11 days!

We kicked off the @NERCscience Aqua project River Wharfe monitoring study today. Over the next 18 months citizen scientists from Ilkley will be monitoring how the new treatment wetland system impacts river water quality.

Off to a great start today with the paired @YorkEnvironment #AQuA project and @EnvAgency citizen science E. Coli validation study at Knaresborough Lido! Stay tuned for updates!

[John Wilkinson @John_Wilkinson4]

Had a great day today kicking off the @NERCscience Action for Quality Aquatic Environments project @YorkEnvironment! Thanks to all the speakers and those who attended for making it such a successful and enjoyable day! Looking forward to working together over the next 4 years!

Great PhD opportunity to conduct research with myself @John_Wilkinson4, @KateArnold14 and Issy Stanton @UK_CEH to investigate the role that birds foraging o. trickling filter beds and reedbeds have on the dissemination of AMR and resistant pathogens. https://t.co/eA7v85HDPn

[Jason R Snape @ProfJRSnape]

Excellent PhD opportunity to join my team to explore AMR ecology and dynamics in engineered and natural wetlands working with Northumbrian Water, UKCEH and Newcastle University

Had a great time in Paris at the Olympics over the past few days! Although I brought one of our new citizen science bacterial test kits and have been seeing some high E. coli levels in the Seine - been around 1500 CFU/ 100mL! #Paris2024

Very interesting article about chemical impacts of landfills- 80% of the English population live with 2km of an active or historical landfill. https://t.co/WOwBWKgAyI
