Our Senior Researcher Fredrik Christiansen recently completed the third photogrammetry field season on bowhead whales in Disko Bay, Greenland. See Thread. 🌐🌏🐋🧪 @FChristiansen.bsky.social #marinemammology #ecology #cetaceanresearch #Arctic #MarineEcology #Research #Science
Our Senior Researcher Fredrik Christiansen completed the third photogrammetry field season on bowhead whales in Disko Bay, Greenland. Together with MSc student Oliver Nowak and local hunters, he measured over 500 whales during March to June to investigate their prey consumption and condition.

Where should we build offshore wind farms for minimimal impacts on marine species? Discussed by Jacob Nabe-Nielsen from @au.dk on #Naturmødet in Hirtshals. He presented results from the Screening project that will facilitate a sustainable green transition in Denmark #dkgreen #Marineecology 🧪 🌐 🐋
Joint presentation by Jacob Nabe-Nielsen from Aarhus University (left) and Jonas Nyfeldt-Nüchel from NIRAS (right).
The sensitivity mapping of Danish waters included marine mammals, birds, bats, and benthic species. Results are published in a series of reports available from the Danish Energy Authority home page or from https://dce.au.dk/en

Developing and testing the models demands a wealth of diverse data and a very dedicated team! From tagging projects to stranding records, we gather critical information on animal movement, energetics, and population structure to inform and refine these models 🐬 #marinemammalresearch @au.dk

Our researchers use a variety of models, including DEPONS (depons.eu), which simulates the effects of noise disturbance on harbor porpoises. By simulating how noise impacts their movement and foraging success, DEPONS can assess the impacts of offshore wind farm construction and ship traffic. 🛥️🐬

New paper: The composition of Arctic plant communities appears to be more related to fine-scale environmental variation than to large-scale variation in summer temperatures, and microhabitat buffering may thus delay the effects of #ClimateChange at least in W Greenland doi.org/10.1002/ecog... 🌱🧪🌐

Now THIS is quite concerning, to say the least. #environment 40 per cent of the world's soil is already degraded, but the problem could get much worse. Soil degradation threatens food supply and scientists are calling for action

Planet could 'cease to function' without action to address soil decay
The world's growing population is putting pressure on its arable land, and scientists warn 90 per cent of all soil could be degraded by 2050 unless urgent action is taken.
