Teaching at @icelabumu.bsky.social Camp (multidisciplinary research proposal workshop for early career researchers) last week. One night planned electrical work in the town of Granö afforded us rare dark skies. Here you see three students enjoying the light show. Amazing. #northernlights #photosky

Three people sit at the end of a pier and watch a northern lights display over a river.

📢 New research!
Warming Arctic lakes may lead to higher methane production and increased greenhouse gas emissions! 🌍❄️💧

🔗More here: www.umu.se/en/news/meth...

#ClimateChange #Arctic #Methane @umeauniversitet.bsky.social

More methane as Arctic lakes warm

A warmer and wetter climate leads to more methane being released from sediments.
