Video abstract a little late being attached to our paper. 🤦🏻♀️. If you’re interested in how we are trying to validate eDNA air sampling for bats we describe the step by step process we are taking here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2T0QeERtpQQ #eDNA #environmentalDNA #bats #speciesAtRisk

Brendon Samuels set up this project on #inaturalist to collect data on #speciesAtRisk in the #greenbelt that could support federal intervention in the #ontario land development scandal. #naturalist #nature #biodiversity #conservation

Conservation biologists need to keep a close eye on this line of research. It could explain a lot of the decline in salmonids we are dealing with.
Urban roadway runoff is lethal to juvenile coho, steelhead, and chinook salmonids, but not congeneric sockeye

Do people like #nature #photography here too?

There are so many reasons to #SaveOntarioWetlands. Here are 4 simple ones!
#Wetlands store billions of tonnes of #carbon and fight #climatechange - at #COP27 we need to pledge to protect wetlands.
They purify #water and trap pollutants.
They prevent #floods and #erosion
They support endangered species. >30% of #SpeciesAtRisk in southern #Ontario rely on wetlands!
Help us protect them: https://saveontariowetlands.weebly.com/take-action.html

I’m new to Mastadon - another bird app refugee. I study #wetlands #invertebrates #birds #plants, especially how to manage #invasivespecies and to conserve #speciesAtRisk. I run the #WaterlooWetlandLab at the #University of #Waterloo. I’m getting pretty agitated by #Ontario ‘s Ford #government who are passing #Bill23 that will destroy many wetlands to profit developers. Lately, I’m working hard to #SaveOntarioWetlands.
