My #PhDpaper is finally out! We estimated the potential contribution of stream metabolism to the CO2 evasion flux in a tropical headwater stream using >2yr high-frequency O2 and CO2 data #SpoilerAlert it’s super high! @ClementDuvert @Dr_Damo77 @egarc07 aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley…

Stream respiration exceeds CO2 evasion in a low‐energy, oligotrophic tropical stream

Carbon dioxide (CO2) can be either imported to streams through groundwater and subsurface inputs of soil-respired CO2 or produced internally through stream metabolism. The contribution of each...

Apologies, I think I might have mis-identified this predator, it is probably a brown goshawk at the Watarrka spring. I am much more confident that it's prey is zebra finch.

Life & death at the Watarrka perennial spring. After almost a decade of camera trapping at this site, this is the first image of a predator, a collared sparrowhawk together with it's prey, a zebra finch. Both species visit this spring often, so it was only a matter of time!

We’ve sampled 50+ tropical streams in just 10 days (and we aren’t done yet). What did it take? Lots of planning and labeling tape, ~4000km of driving and 6 wheels of cheese @ClementDuvert

This highly flammable weed is taking over Litchfield National Park. Experts say urgent action is...

According to new research, gamba grass will replace the existing ecosystems across about 30 per cent of the park by 2032 if further action isn't taken.

New research has shown that gamba grass covers 20% of Litchfield National Park and could increase to 30% within a decade. Major investment is urgently needed to protect the Park’s incredible biodiversity and stunning natural areas from gamba grass. cdu.edu.au/news/major-invest…
