Fascinating an motivating plenary talk from @florianaltermatt.bsky.social at #DGL2025. He made a strong plea for rethinking the way we use eDNA to monitor aquatic biodiversity. Inspired me to read more about his research.

Opening plenary of Mark Gessner at #DGL2025, the annual German limnology conference, of DGL and @sil-limnology.bsky.social Germany, this year in Frankfurt

Unitag an der @tudresden.bsky.social ! Der Stand der #hydrowissenschaften ist eröffnet.

Many thanks to the @ictc13.bsky.social organizers for this excellently organized and inspiring conference and the always friendly, welcoming + enthusiastic atmosphere 💙💚

The @ictc13.bsky.social keynote everyone was waiting for: Hans Paerl. He provided a truly global view, expanding our focus to coastal and marine systems. He stressed that sustainable control requires P and N reduction and that climate change, droughts, floods, and storms intensify our challenges.

Bas Ibelings started with a musical introduction to his talk about Planktothrix rubescens at @ictc13.bsky.social

The invasive and toxin-producing cyanobacterium Raphidiopsis raciborskii is spreading worldwide. Willis Anusuya's keynote speech on Tuesday at @ictc13.bsky.social provided insight into its stunning genomic biodiversity and flexibility on a global scale. @cyanoaction.bsky.social

"Microcystis, Anabaena, Limnothrix, Aphanizomenon: is this all GREEK to you?" Taxonomic names can provide insight to biology. The talk of Spyros Gkelis at @ictc13.bsky.social gave us a first introduction. @cyanoaction.bsky.social

Great talk of Timo Niedermeyer @niedermeyer-lab.bsky.social at the @ictc13.bsky.social conference how to derive new pharmaceuticals from #cyanobacteria toxins.

Exciting talk of Elke Dittmann on "Dissecting the Role of Microcystin on the Carbon Concentrating Mechanism of Microcystis aeruginosa" at the @ictc13.bsky.social conference on toxic #cyanobacteria. @cyanoaction.bsky.social

Meeting of @cyanoaction.bsky.social in Chania, Crete. How can we manage and prevent harmful blue-green algae blooms in Europe?

Here a local example from a long-term station (Potsdam, close to Berlin) with data from the German Weather Service (DWD) since 1893. I created the example for a course with R packages #strucchange and #segmented. The years 2023 and especially 2024 are clearly above the trend line.
