My old greenhouse tub (from experiments run way back in 2017-2018) has found new scientific exploration and of course, come full circle in @BugNet_research 😍
Our first sampling since treatment applicatuon for @BugNet_research at Fowlers Gap Arid Research Station We noticed our storage tub was a leftover one from @SuzEveringham which felt fitting🌟

At #BES2023 🎉 finally made it in person after missing 3 years in a row! Still my favourite ecology conference - well organised, thought-through and inclusive. I’m presenting this afternoon in community ecology (studio hall) at 4pm - of course about @BugNet_research

You work on global change effects on plant-consumer interactions? Or on the context-dependency of plant-consumer interactions? Then we welcome your abstract submissions to our session at the @WorldBioForum in Davos. Deadline already 26th of November! @SLFDavos @AllanEcology

Agreed! Our @BugNet_research co-authors spend hours collecting data AND work harmoniously at online meetings for our research/publications. Without this WHOLE team, we would not have the level of research excellence. This is the way forward in science @Clarivate #BugNet
.@Clarivate with all the effort you put into #HighlyCitedResearcher exclusions, please include high author# pubs that document meaningful coauthor contributions. Some research relies on large collaboration. I wrote a discussion paragraph for you: doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.14…

The truth of a global collaborative research network - not always such glamorous work! Today with the help of @vishwathiga our amazing visiting masters student, we are finally cataloging and archiving the ~1100 ground biomass samples from @BugNet_research #BugNet 🥵
