Wetlands are a rapidly diminishing habitat globally but are key to supporting diverse biota. We show how #LiDAR can be used to reveal the potential (currently under-estimated) risk of anthropogenic drainage in existing #wetlands @OliviaRata @MWLR https://t.co/GEQKfNaouW

Need a helpful guide to assess distance from ecological baselines and change over time in your palaeoecological records? new paper led by @OliviaRata with worked examples and code in 'baselines' at https://t.co/egZuVLFbmk https://t.co/gFduGsUnhk

New dietary study led by Alex Boast on coprolites and historic scats from endangered kākāpō identifies #palaeoecological surprises among the 24 Orders, 56 Families, and 57 native plant genera unrecorded in their modern diet #kakapo #metabarcoding #pollen https://t.co/udBBnGE1H1

Our new paper, led by Anna Walentowitz @ArchipelagoAnna, uses pollen records from islands around the world to document the introduction and establishment of non-native species #pollen #palaeoecology https://t.co/ymrIMbzTSH
@mwlr_nz Congratulations @ArchipelagoAnna !

New research combining historical observations and palaeoecological records of kākāpō with probabilistic extinction-date estimators reveals different and shifting drivers of decline across NZ over 800 yrs before its near extinction in the 1990s #kakapo https://t.co/9nqbJ0Llf3

@TeixeiraJoaoC @KierenJMitchell @mwlr_nz oh yes we definitely know how lucky we are! 😉🙂

Check out what our PhD student Jacqui Vanderhoorn's plans are for creating a database of New Zealand's pollen records in her talk "QUAVONZ: The Quaternary Vegetation of New Zealand Database" this afternoon at 2pm. Good luck Jacqui! @mwlr #nzes2022

Another warm welcome, this time to @KierenJMitchell who joins our LTEL team as a new palaeoecologist. So great to have our ancient DNA lab cranking again and to have such a fantastic new palaeoecology team at @mwlr_nz. Watch this space 😊

[LCR_LTEL @LCR_LTEL]

A warm welcome aboard to Alex Boast who joins our Long Term Ecology Lab as a new palaeoecologist. Great to see our palaeoecology team growing again!

[LCR_LTEL @LCR_LTEL]

HOTRUNZ is a new open access 1km resolution monthly 1910–2019 time series of interpolated temp and rainfall grids from NZ (with associated uncertainty). Available to start exploring your long-term biological trends against now! https://t.co/1lOyQjQHlb @MWLR

Farewell @larusnz from @LCR_LTEL as you leave @mwlr_nz for @uniofadelaide. We wish you all the best for the exciting opportunities that lie ahead. What a brilliant 13 yrs we have shared - we will miss you heaps but look forward to collaborating over the ditch. Ka kite ano e hoa!

[LCR_LTEL @LCR_LTEL]

A great opportunity to come and work with an awesome team of ecologists! @MWLR @_fleecepants @McCarthyEcology @OliviaRata @jmwilmshurst and many others (who aren't on twitter ;-) https://t.co/H8qcULuz5O

[Manaaki Whenua Landcare Research @mwlr_nz]

We're seeking an early to mid-career plant ecologist who can integrate field data with spatial & temporal analyses to address questions relating to a range of ecosystems (inc. naturally uncommon, regen. shrublands, indig. forests).
