A successful day coring two sites on the Migneint blanket bog in North Wales with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social, @rchiverrell.bsky.social & undergrad Teleri. We'll analyse the cores for geochemistry (via XRF) and organic matter composition (infrared spectrometry).

Our school is looking for a new Head of Department for Geography and Planning. Details below. @livunigeog.bsky.social @livuniplanning.bsky.social @livunisoes.bsky.social www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DOJ551/h...

Untangling nutrient co‐regulation of ombrotrophic peatland development - Chiverrell - Boreas - Wiley Online Library onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

doi.org/10.1111/bor.... nice to get this paper out - long-term peatland dynamics with a focus on nutrient regulation using the sequence at Holcroft Moss @naturalengland.bsky.social

No advert out yet, but I will recruiting a 2yr postdoc, start date autumn 2025, at @livunigeog.bsky.social soon. Lowland and upland peatlands, GHGs, DOM and water chemistry. Plenty of fieldwork. Feel free to drop me a DM or email if you might be interested, and please spread the word.

Higher incidence of strongly evaporative days drives severe water deficit for ombrotrophic peatlands - just published take a look if you're keen on peatland hydrology, drought impact/recovery and long-term monitoring... #maymoss doi.org/10.1002/hyp....

Very nice 10’es free early start

A journey continues- delighted the department of Geography and Planning has moved into the QS top 100 subject rankings news.liverpool.ac.uk/2025/03/12/i... testament to the hard work of colleagues and current and former students #thankyou

1/5 What happens when woodland is left to rewild? At Lady Park Wood this transformation has been monitored since 1945! @ect-uk.bsky.social have funded the 9th resurvey (first resurvey since 2010). Exciting and daunting to be part of the team taking on stewardship of this amazing study!

🌳🌳🌳 We have a new paper in @pnas.org showing climate warming leads to growth decline in beech because it drives trees to reproduce more frequently. Climate change can cause growth decline even when drought isn’t increasing by shifting where trees allocate resources doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2423181122

Warmer summers are causing European beeches to produce seed more often, depleting the trees’ stored resources—an indirect effect of climate change that is threatening the sustainability of Europe’s most widespread forest tree. In PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

JUST is a new ESRC funded research centre focused on the pursuit of sustainability transformations that are joined up, people-centred and socially just.

Great to see peatlands featuring here.
