I am in Bangkok, Thailand! I am attending this #DeltasUNite Summit #DeltaSummit25 for the preparation of the United Nations Convention on the Conservation of River Deltas (#UNCCRD), on behalf of the Transboundary Water InCooperation Network (TWIN). I gave a talk on:
“The potential of #CommunityScience and
#cooperatives in building resilience and food-water-energy security in delta communities”
I spoke about the #SolidarityEconomy !
#TransboundaryWater #BenningtonCollege

I’m in Thailand for a conference starting on Monday. I will prepare my presentation soon. I may include a 101 on #cooperatives and a 101 on #communityscience and relate them back to #solidarityEconomics. If you recommend resources right now, I’ll use them.

Die neuen #Abzeichen sind jetzt ausgerollt! Wer sie noch nicht sieht, macht bitte eine Pflanzenbestimmung, dann werden die Abzeichen neu geladen.

Viel Spaß beim Sammeln!

Wer keine Lust auf Abzeichen sammeln hat, darf das einfach ignorieren :)

The recording for Wednesday's iNaturalist seminar on phenology records, and their value for research, is online!

Check it out to learn how scientists—including yours truly—use phenology data in biodiversity research, and for a demo of adding phenology data to iNat records

Over the weekend, volunteers with Arizona Field Ornithologists embarked on a field expedition to locate LeConte's & Bendire's Thrasher territories at target sites in Arizona. The expedition was a success; each yellow dot represents a thrasher sighting! #birds #desertthrashers #fieldwork #thankyou

Register for this webinar next Wednesday to learn about annotating phenophase on #iNaturalist — buds, flowers, or fruits on a plant you're observing with the app — and how researchers use that data, with examples from Vijay Barve and me!

Next SETI Live: New Exoplanets Dropped! And Citizen Scientists Helped Find Them
TODAY, Sep 19, 2:30 PM PDT

One program, called UNITE (Unistellar Network Investigating TESS Exoplanets), brings together a global group of volunteer and professional astronomers. Recently, they confirmed two #exoplanets—a hot Jupiter and a warm sub-Saturn. Dr. Lauren Sgro, UNITE’s Exoplanets Lead, talks with Beth Johnson about exoplanets and #communityscience.

Just learned about the Carea moth caterpillar which mimics a snail in its southeast asian habitat. Demonstrates the utility and wonder that participatory science can reveal!

A quarter of all bumblebee records in the last decade came from community science volunteers. Not scientists by trade, but regular people taking time out of their lives to count, photograph and collect data on these important pollinators.

Some apps are good.
