Investigating the biological role of dissolved organic matter in freshwater ecosystems. Isotopes, omics, molecular biology, carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus. 🧪💦🌿🐟🐌https://bsky.app/profile/ercrefresh.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/ercrefresh.bsky.social/post/3lxf3sg7r7s2sFantastic field season with the team. Looking forward to sample and data analyses over the winter, then planning for our 2026 field campaign on the back of those findings!

We're already underway with major experiments throughout the summer. Huge opportunity for the right candidate!

Next stop is deployment of the biofilm frames in our clay stream to develop biofilms for experiment 2 in 3 weeks time. Great help from @sydneyenns.bsky.social from our @ukri.org QUANTUM team. 🧪11 Jul 2025 09:52 +0000at://did:plc:kcphf6lkh4jgobfq6injripf/app.bsky.feed.post/3ltol3yvzck2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/ercrefresh.bsky.social/post/3ltk4ofuwpc2uFollow the team @ercrefresh.bsky.social as we investigate controls on rates & pathways of DOM uptake into stream foodwebs. This week we ran the first of 3 experiments exploring if environmental character, warming or velocity affect uptake this week. Chalk stream first, then clay stream, then peat! 🧪09 Jul 2025 15:23 +0000at://did:plc:kcphf6lkh4jgobfq6injripf/app.bsky.feed.post/3ltk4ofuwpc2u
