Biodegradable plastics are a real asset in many ways. The ones used in agriculture can strongly limit plastic pollution in soil. But what happens when they end up in lake sediments? New paper out, from Carsten Schubert and me! Highlight paper in EGU's BG: doi.org/10.5194/bg-20-…

Surge in number of ‘extremely productive’ authors concerns scientists - AS IT SHOULD! nature.com/articles/d4158…

Do you want to learn a bit how Daphnia Magna swim in an aquarium? Read this method paper, led by Daisuke Noto at PENN EES Department Penn : Simple tracking of occluded self-propelled organisms doi.org/10.1088/1361-6… via IOP Publishing

How deep is a lake? In a new paper in ASLO's L&O we create and apply new models to estimate lake maximum and mean depth and volume for >475,000 US lakes. Some really interesting results! aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…

New 2-year Postdoc in my Evolutionary Ecosystem Ecology group in Switzerland (Eawag). This position builds on almost 5 years of work in Southern Greenland (lots to publish!) and includes 1-2 new field excursions (lots of new data to collect). apply.refline.ch/673277/1130/pu…

Finally out! Tomy Doda, Cintia Ramón & Damien Bouffard , along with an amazing team, have led a truly interdisciplinary research (Eawag EPFL Universidad Granada Université de Lausanne & PENN EES Department): Lake surface cooling drives littoral-pelagic exchange of dissolved gases science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

💧 The conventional idea that the shore region and the middle of the lake are disconnected from each other needs to be changed. A new study shows that a current connects the two regions. eawag.ch/en/info/portal… #lake #aquaticresearch #lakewater #currents

🚨New paper on freshwater #algae dynamics and algal blooms! A large algal bloom in #LakeGeneva in 2021 was triggered by a sequence of heavy rainfall followed by wind-induced coastal upwelling, and a prolonged period of warm, calm weather. Mortimer Werther UmrCarrtel

Dirigé par l’EPFL, en collaboration avec l’Eawag, l’Université de Lausanne et l’Association pour la Sauvegarde du Léman (ASL), le projet Lémanscope fait appel au public pour collecter des données et aider à évaluer la santé du lac. go.epfl.ch/4e6350

⁉ How does the #aquatic #ecosystem respond to changes in #river flow? 🌊 We asked this question directly to freshwater #mussels living in the river! Discover more in our latest paper just published in HESS Journal hess.copernicus.org/articles/28/22… EGU Hydrology Università di Trento HYDRALAB+
