Citizens in 6 U.S. states are being asked to mail in deceased #butterflies, #moths, and #skippers to help U.S. Geological Survey #USGS scientists establish a #Lepidoptera Research Collection (LRC). The pilot study for this citizen science invitation includes: #Alabama, #Georgia, #Kansas,# Nebraska, #Oklahoma, #Texas. These specimens will help USGS scientists identify #contaminants # environmental factors which may be contributing to #decline of #insect #populations. https://www.usgs.gov/news/state-news-release/media-alert-usgs-calling-all-dead-butterflies-and-moths-six-states

Haven’t shared a lot of my #research on here yet, but #today I’m sharing an #openaccess paper I’m particularly #proud of 🥹. We used #expertopinion to develop a #cumulativeeffects model of the #multiplestressors affecting the #Arctic seabird Northern Fulmar. #fishing, #climatechange, #oil and #mining as well as resulting #boat traffic, #noise pollution, and #contaminants including #plastic are big contributors.

"Study shows soil pollution in urban green spaces and natural areas is similar
An international study shows that soil in urban green spaces and natural areas share similar levels of multiple contaminants such as metals, pesticides, microplastics and antibiotic resistance genes around the world. Soil contamination is one of the main threats to the health and sustainability of ecosystems."

There are new concerns about dioxin #contaminants from the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, that stay in the ground for a long time> https://bit.ly/3CzL6tn
Latest paper out led by PhD student Georgia Sinclair, "Is substrate choice an overlooked variable in #ecotoxicology experiments?" looks at the issue of substrate choice for toxicology experiments. By measuring small molecule metabolites (#metabolomics) we show that the metabolic effects of #contaminants on organisms can vary by substrate even when using artificial, clean material.

Alarming map reveals where fish in the continental US have #pfas ‘forever chemicals’ in their systems. And there’s a reason these harmful chemicals are called ‘forever’. Remember, a recent study showed that eating just one of these fish is like drinking contaminated water for a month.

During the June 2017 tragedy, many firefighters ran out of air in the tower and many sat in their contaminated suits for more than 10 hours.
