Why should we protect our chalk streams? How are key players interacting? And where are the gaps? OUR NEWLY PUBLISHED PAPER (π₯³) uses social network analysis to understand the governance structures of our (v important) streams so that their water quality can be improved π
New paper!π§΅
1. Our paper in People & Nature shows the use of visualising and understanding social networks to evaluate governance processes, focusing on water quality outcomes for chalk streams (R. Test & R. Itchen) in England https://t.co/TRuzUfzjud
Fun fact
A chicken can be hypnotized with its head down near the ground, by drawing a line along the ground starting at the beak and extending straight outward in front of the chicken.
My first week at Cefas was mental. Meeting so many new people, getting to grips with new techniques, and settling into a new life in Norfolk has been a bit mind-melting but it's ok because I LOVE SCIENCE and I can't believe that this is my job (yike this photo is blurry) #postphd
Nobody used Lucy Letbyβs race or religion when she murdered babies and got jailed -ask yourself why no Greggs bakers were robbed when she was sentenced to prison? Why were no hotels burned down? Why were no riots screaming and looting through John Lewis to protect our kids? π¬π§
I know this picture's been doing the rounds today but very rarely a picture comes along that perfectly illustrates 'I do not understand consequences but will shortly' and this is one of them. Last one I can remember is the basmati rice looter from 2011.
I don't follow football at all, and what I have watched of #EUROS2024 has been largely against my will. But I do have to admit that this savage attack has almost made it worth it.

Pint of science night #3, we're getting ready for an excellent evening talking about air (Dune formation, temperature variations and air pollution), a great way to spend my 27th bday π₯³ #pint24#Science
It's the last day of #pint24 π opening the show today we have Dr. Jo Nield talking us through how sand dunes form β³who doesn't love baby dunes??
#pintofscience#planetearth#sanddunes
Here we go for day 2 of #pint24 and we have our very own @JRawlingsVolc speaking about volcano diamonds! ππ
There's still time to get your ticket for tomorrow at https://t.co/oyz4NegMsv! πΊ

The last hurrah! This is my favourite course to demonstrate on. It's so chill, so peaceful, and most importantly, loads of fun π
The third and final time at @FSCNettlecombe before I finish my PhD π
#fieldstudiescouncil#phdlife#phdchat#ecologylife
2nd talk in 2 weeks! This time at the @SoCoBioDtp conference in Kent 𧬠last hurrah of the PhD and it's so lovely to hear all the works that's been going on over the last year, and of course getting to see fellow SoCoBio-ers from other unis π₯°

Three very intense days took it out of me, but this was the most fun I've had at a conference π the most productive parts were obvs learning about new ocean research, and the multitudes of incredible people met through (sangria-fuelled) networking ππ· #OceanDecade24#phdlife
A very productive session moderated by our very own @MartinaStiasny on how we can develop the white paper addressing #unitednations#oceandecade Challenge 2: Protect and Restore Ecosystems and Biodiversity π
And we're off! #UNOD conference is underway ππ my little poster is a drop in the ocean (hehe) in the grand scheme of all the incredible science and policy management of the UN Ocean Decade, and it's very humbling to be here presenting in the company of so many inspiring people
