🌡️Climate warming trend in Aotearoa New Zealand since 1853. 🌡️Just because "some governments" are ignoring it, doesn't mean it's not real. #ShowYourStripes

2 fully funded PhD positions with Charlotte Alster (researchers.lincoln.ac.nz/charlotte.al...) and myself! Come work at geothermal sites in Aotearoa New Zealand to explore how warming influences microbial trade-offs, food web structure, and soil ecosystem resilience. @marsdenfund.bsky.social
