Excited to have travelled to Greenland for the first time! I have landed in Sisimiut for the first part of Greenland Science week as part of the IASC Terrestrial Working Group funded project CONTACT. I’ve literally never been before so it’s been really fun visiting Sisimiut so far!

Few updates from the field!
Found 3/4 original DART (?) OTC plots. No. 4 has been loosely identified so will track that down.
Both supervisors came out to see all the work I’ve been doing in Abisko!
I gave a tundra talk and an outreach talk at Naturum Abisko! I got a lovely book as a thank you.

Had basically all the weather possible in Abisko including the most amount of waterlogged tundra I’ve ever seen but very special to find these trees near the treeline limits.

After an absolutely heroic 38 hr journey up to Abisko we have finally made it!
Looking a lot cooler than last time I was here! 🌲❄️🌳

And we are headed to Abisko! Excited to be going back up and catching up with people from last year. Also very excited to meet all those new!
I’ll be giving a Tundra talk on the 17th June at ANS and an outreach talk on the 21st at Naturum Abisko!

Finally recovered from a full on 3 days of all things arctic vegetation science at the CAVSI workshop!
Great to meet loads of other ECR’s working on similar things and looking forward to the next steps

Few days of ecology fun at #BES2024 to round off the term. Lots of arctic terrestrial and forest ecology!
Forgive the weird putting up of the poster I am short and as it turns out A0 is quite big

On my way to my first @britishecolsoc.bsky.social conference!
Excited to chat about the more ecological side of my work so if you want to hear more about forest expansion into Arctic tundra in Fennoscandia and how scale is important for understanding this drop by!

Happy Polar Pride day 2024! Having an inclusive Polar community 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🐧🐻❄️ is so important and celebrating the contributions that LGBTQIA+ researchers make to polar science is as key now as ever.
The Geography dept at Durham is holding celebrations once again for the Polar community at Durham

I’ve not really been on here on account of lots of PhD work (mainly fieldwork in Sweden and Finland as pictured below) but good to see it’s much more lively!

Happy #PolarPrideDay2023 ahead of tomorrow!! 🌈🐧🐻❄️❄️
UKPN are really excited to see how everyone who is celebrating today and tomorrow comes together to discuss how #diversity in #PolarScience makes our science better.
Feel free to share any celebrations that have taken place on here tomorrow!!
