Another request from the Journal of Novel Sciences🙈asking me to submit a paper. No thanks especially as you can’t get my name right 😂

A whole host of exciting new PhDs linked to flooding are advertised here including one led by me, Charlotte Lloyd and Prof Sanchez-Baracaldo looking as cascade effects of flooding and drought interactions on aquatic ecosystems. Please share!

We are still looking to recruit more #farmers for our UK-wide #plastic in agricultural #soil survey this year 🔎 Calling ALL farmers actively using plastic #mulch film to participate 📣 Check out the post below for more info & get in touch for a chat ⬇️

We started the last set of our #additive degradation experiments today with soil from our partners in India 🇮🇳 Each experiment runs for 3 weeks and we're testing 6 different #soil types - looking forward to seeing all the data coming together for this soon 😍

🦠🏊🏾‍♀️A breakthrough in #wastewater monitoring! Dr Jessica Kevill & Prof Davey Jones from @Bangoruni have used dye (PMAxx) to pinpoint infectious viruses found in sewage that can end up in the ocean.
