Abend am See

Too much artificial light at night promotes the growth of blue-green algae in #lakes. This has been shown in a large-scale field experiment. If #LightPollution continues to increase, potentially toxic cyanobacterial blooms could become more common in the future.

Surface temperatures of #lakes in #Germany are warming faster than the air. IGB researchers have investigated how #climatechange affects oxygen concentrations and whether negative consequences can be mitigated by reducing nutrient inputs > https://www.igb-berlin.de/en/news/german-lakes-under-climate-change

#LightPollution in #rivers and #lakes: Excessive artificial #light is changing aquatic life and entire #ecosystems. An IGB overview shows how #fish, toads, #insects and microorganisms perceive light and why we need to better protect them. Read here > https://www.igb-berlin.de/en/news/when-darkness-disappears

Hi, pleasant community!
My #introduction starts with family. My kids & grands are my life’s purpose.
Entertainally, I’m into #StarWars, #TheWalkingDead, #GameofThrones & #Marvel.
I’m an #artist & #maker. I love #woodworking but suck at it; have done #InteriorDesign & #HomeRemodeling.
I built my own #TinyHouse.
I love all things #water, except humidity: #snow, #rain, #rivers, #lakes & #oceans
Also on my radar: #horses, #dogs, #FabricDesign, #reading, #technology, #genealogy, #trees & #textiles

Pesticides can contaminate waterbodies and, if their concentrations are above critical thresholds, they can be harmful to the #environment.

#introduction

Re-introducing myself after my move from mastodon.social.

Howdy all. My name is Jeff Hollister. I am an ecologist and wanna be data scientist. I work for the USEPA and my work focuses on #lakes, #HarmfulAlgalBlooms with a lot of #rstats, #geospatial, #ecology, #openscience, and #opensource thrown in.

I am enjoying getting to know Mastodon. Feels like my very early days with that other site!
