Very excited that our lab is working in South Africa again as part of @BuntuFanteso's PhD! #ecology #KRUGERNATIONALPARK
A successful final day of sampling in and around Kruger National Park in South Africa with the Aquatic Systems Research Group from @UniMpumalanga. We spent the week collecting samples for #foodweb and #microplastic analysis. @TatendaDalu @MichCJackson @chinomukutu

Our recent paper trying to quantify the biological costs of invasive planktonic species globally. Cumulative global plankton Invasions cost US$5.8B with costs varying per group. Costs are expected to be > as this is a conservative estimate @WaterRes_J sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

The latest #IPCC report is asking us to act and adapt. Restored and maintained wetland ecosystems are humanity's ultimate buffer against the increasing droughts, floods and storms that are exacerbated by climate change. Join us in safeguarding and restoring wetlands.

Interested in #microplastics in freshwater ecosystems? My student @G_DAvignon published a review of the significance of microplastics to limnology: cdnsciencepub.com/doi/pdf/10…. We suggest limnologists should integrate microplastics ("plaston") into their standard sampling protocols.
