Emma hammering in a soil corer
🚨 New paper alert! 🚨
@emma-polman.bsky.social sampled soils and vegetation in a wetland-grassland system, and found that despite vastly different plant communities, wet grasslands did not differ from dry grasslands in top soil C stocks.

Really interesting document! Thanks for sharing here.
Based on a quick look I'm really glad to see you highlight the work we do in Lower Saxony.
Looking forward to having closer look in the next days!
Brushwood fascines at Suffolk Yacht Harbour to increase sedimentation and allow expansion of the existing marsh.
BESE mats (biodegradable 3D structures made out of potato starch) are trialled at Two Tree Island to test their effectiveness for sediment accumulation and plant establishment.
Rock rolls installed parallel to the shore at Hebburn, Tyne to trap sediment.
🔓 Exploring quick wins to unlock #saltmarsh potential
Saltmarsh restoration in the UK is dominated by managed realignment, which is costly and slow to deliver. A new report explores small-scale methods that could provide quicker options and help habitat recovery.

Thank you!
Is there a non-Linkedin link as well?
We are recruiting a postdoc to study wetland plant-soil-microbe interactions using isotope labeling in our greenhouse at LLNL with me and Erin Nuccio as part of a multidisciplinary project. Experience with wetland plants and SIP a plus. Please share!

We are advertising for a Lecturer in Physical Oceanography, closing date 31 March.
If you have research interests in the shelf seas, estuarine and coastal oceans then this could be for you!
And you could do research using UEA's fleet of ocean gliders

Today is #WorldWetlandsDay2026 🌎
Germany is committed to the conservation, restoration and sustainable management of wetlands. The @umweltministerium.de is currently funding 36 wetland-related projects under the IKI.

Happy World Wetlands Day! 🌱 The ICOS network currently includes 16 wetland stations across Europe, providing long-term and openly accessible greenhouse gas data from these important ecosystems. Scroll through the pictures below to see more pictures from our beautiful wetland stations! 👇
Happy #WorldWetlandDay! I'm pleased to be back at North Inlet today, remembering a warmer time in Sept. 2025 when we sampled our #nitrogen #saltmarsh experimental plots (you can see the boosted plant height from the fertilizer) for the last time, including pulling these belowground biomass cores.
#WorldWetlandsDay 🌿💧
To protect and restore these vital ecosystems, we need stronger wetland science education.
Understanding how wetlands function, from peatlands to marshes, is essential for training the next generation to safeguard biodiversity, water quality, and climate resilience.
On #WorldWetlandsDay, I’m celebrating the beautiful wetlands here in Québec. They cover~18 million ha of the landscape and encompass a wide variety of different types.
#Wetlands everywhere are critical ecosystems - they store carbon, regulate water, and sustain biodiversity! We must protect them!
Wow! These are very cute 😍
Happy #WorldWetlandsDay!
Traditional knowledge has long guided the sustainable use of wetlands. As the Convention on Wetlands marks 55 years, #WorldWetlandsDay2026 calls on us to protect wetlands and honour cultural heritage.

A black-and-white Avocet stands motionless in shallow wetland water, facing the camera with an unimpressed expression, as if waiting for an explanation. Its long blue-grey legs are partly submerged and its thin, upturned bill curves slightly to one side. Gentle ripples surround the bird, with soft, blurred wetland tones in the background.
Respect Wetlands. Or explain it to this Avocet.
#WorldWetlandsDay
And of course thanks to @ramsar.org for spreading the news around the world that wetlands are relevant!
If you want to know more about salt marshes and restoration projects in the Wadden Sea have a look at this report: qsr.waddensea-worldheritage.org/reports/salt...
A salt marsh with a varierty of plant species including grasses and herbs.
A large creek in a salt marsh. It is low tide, so there are some mudflats visible in the creek. the creek banks are vegetated with a tall grass typical for salt marshes. Two people stand in the background looking at the creek.
Happy World Wetlands Day!
I'm very proud to be able to contribute to the protection of ~10k ha of salt marshes in the Lower Saxon Wadden Sea National Park with my work.
They are a very valuable habitat for plants and animal species, and important carbon sink.
