Grateful to Metsämiesten Säätiö and the UNITE Flagship for funding support and to Kevin Zobrist and all at Washington State University for brilliant organisation. The international connections made will shape our PELITUKI gamification research in the future. #mmsaatio #internationalresearch 4/4
The forest communities we visited on our way to Snoqualmie Falls demonstrated cooperative approaches to forest management that are not common in Finland. These landowners work together to maintain ecological integrity whilst ensuring forests benefit the whole community.
The Cascade foothills tour was breathtaking, featuring community-managed forests where private landowners work together on long-term planning and climate adaptation to mitigate forest damage and build resilience. The scale and proximity to urban Seattle were fascinating to see firsthand.
A few months back, I attended the IUFRO forestry conference in Washington State. Been meaning to share some highlights from an incredible week of learning and exploration. Thread with photos 🧵 1/4 #mmsaatio #forestry

The numbers are in. @bsky.app research sharing volumes vs X Formerly Twitter
In March 2024, on most days, Bluesky hosts more posts linked to research published in 2025 than X.
By quite a lot.

Today at UEF's Equality Day, Doctoral Researchers Wadzanai Masvosva and @philipchambers.bsky.social shared their experiences regarding #equality & equal opportunities at the university.
Being seen & heard and inclusive communication are issues they found important.
To mark #8M, the ForGEDI IUFRO TF invites you to our 1st live online event on 8 Apr: Practising resistance through forest-related GEDI education – what challenges, impacts, and future?
Let’s shape a more inclusive forestry education together! More info soon

🌳 Did you know the baobab is one of the most nutrient-rich trees in the world?
This "Tree of Life" provides nutrition, livelihoods, and climate resilience across Africa.
Today, baobab seeds are among the tree seeds CIFOR-ICRAF is depositing in the Svalbard Global Seed Vault.

Ah, nice that you’ll be able to enjoy yourself more and see more of Orkney this time. We don’t see much here in Joensuu in December either 😅
Oh I’d love to visit Orkney! I’ve been to Shetland but never Orkney. I hear it’s quite special and have always wanted to visit Skara Brae since reading The Boy with the Bronze Axe as a kid.
It's an excellent museum with great exhibitions and informative staff! It sounds like you had a lovely time. Hopefully, you can visit Finland and its forests soon! Happy to show fellow Scottish forestry folk around 😀
Here's a Finnish forest for no reason other than I like to share their beauty 🙂
And here is the paper:

From the Guardian:
World’s largely unprotected peatlands are ticking ‘carbon bomb’, warns study.
Finland mentioned 🇫🇮

We have a feeling you'll be interested in this one.
Nature is keen to find out how scientists are using Bluesky and whether it has become their go-to social-media platform. Take the survey! 🧪
Why are you all still active on Twitter? How do you justify posting and resharing things there? You could all be leading by example. All credible journalists, politicians, organisations, charities, universities etc. should be abandoning the platform. I intend to. And maybe Meta too.
Proud to work the University of Eastern Finland!
Olen ylpeä saadessani työskennellä Itä-Suomen yliopistossa!
