#PhD

A real privilege to be part of the world’s first Delta Summit in #Bangkok #Thailand to develop a White Paper for the #UnitedNations to make operational the UN Convention for Conserving River Deltas unveiled and approved at #COP28 internationaldeltasummit.ait.ac.th #UNCCRD #RiverDeltas #Conservation

Huge congratulations to Shovi Anjum @solwayfp.bsky.social for being awarded a Coastal Champion at the North West Coastal Forum for her work on engaging local communities in #coastal #habitat #restoration! 👏🎉 very exciting work, inc. installing biodegradable mats to promote #saltmarsh establishment!

Back from an incredible trip to S. #Bangladesh - exploring the impact of human disturbance on fringing #mangroves. Despite being narrow (~50 m), these systems likely deliver unique #EcosystemServices until disturbance is too severe. Met with many partners, exciting plans afoot to return soon! 🇧🇩 🌴

Good news for nature! 😍

RSPB Wallasea Island is expanding by 100 hectares: creating a freshwater lagoon and wild grasslands for Lapwings, Redshanks, Avocets, and more!

This huge boost for local wildlife will also support migratory birds on a global scale...👇

Join us to explore the secrets of the saltmarsh as our #12DaysOfChristmas podcast review continues!

Only 450 sq km of the UK's natural #saltmarsh remains, with England losing ~85% in 150 years. But these vital habitats support wildlife & combat climate change.
