#2020dailydrawing inspired and encouraged by @DrRJWarren and others. Storm clouds over a shore meadow. I visited the meadow when I was selecting field sites for a research project. #Watercolour #ink #climatechange #biodiversity #grassland #9 #vikbolandet

Poster for the call for abstracts for a special issue on alpine vegetation and global change which aims to address the combined effect of anthropogenic and climate threats as drivers of vegetation dynamics in a changing world. Abstracts are due 7 June 2024, authors will be notified by 30 September 2024, full manuscripts are due 1 December 2024, and the special issue will be complete in the second half of 2025.

🎉 My first first-author paper is officially out! bit.ly/jotrbf

In this study, we explored blow fly community composition in neighboring deserts within Joshua Tree National Park.

A map of Joshua Tree National Park highlights research findings on blow fly communities. The map is split into three zones: Mojave Desert, Sonoran Desert, and the Transition Zone. Collection sites are marked with symbols for different studies: Study 1 (Mojave Desert, Transition Zone, Sonoran Desert) and Study 2 (high-visitor activity and low-visitor activity sites). Two main questions are presented: Do blow fly communities differ between neighboring deserts? Results show differences temporally and spatially, with the Mojave Desert differing from the Transition Zone and Sonoran Desert. What is the impact of human activity on blow fly communities within protected areas? Community composition did not differ, but species richness varied seasonally and was unaffected by visitor activity levels. Additional visuals include icons representing seasons (leaf and tree symbols), human activity (campfire symbol), and blow fly species (small fly icons). A scale bar (miles/kilometers) and credits to mapping sources (Esri, NASA, NPS, etc.) appear at the bottom of the image.

Physical #geography project ⚒️
Day 6
Last #excursion day 🇬🇷
6 student projects presented field site, methods & preliminary results. From hills & old terraces to modern agriculture & sand dunes. Each year are different people, tasks & goals. The 3 instructors & 30 students are delighted #fieldteaching

Following a landscape through time. I study how biodiversity linked to grasslands and deciduous woods are affected by landscape changes. This set of change is so common in Sweden. There is no space left for species to inhabit or disperse #communityecology 🧪🌍

Description in alt text
Three maps and four aerial photos of the same landscape. The first map is from 1783, green colours denotes meadows, dark pink arable fields, lighter pink with trees pasture. Map from 1901 where orange is crop fields, green (along the river) meadow and white with * grazed areas. 1953 is an aerial photo where yellow is crop fields (tiny bit at the top), green forest and pale green open land that isn't ploughed, black and white photos from 1960 and 1975 show that open land is planted with spruce. 2018 is so spruce plantation and 2023 a clear cut. What biodiversity that's left is along the small strip of the riverbank
