Photo of a mating pair of common toads has won first place in the "Freshwater" category in the photo contest organized by Nautica company owned e.g. by one of great polish photographers Piotr Stós. A big thank you to the organizers. Toads hold a special place in my heart as photography subjects. I find great joy in capturing their unique beauty and showing that even creatures often overlooked can be fascinating and full of charm.

It was a pleasure to participate as an opponent in inspiring PhD defense at the University of Tromsø. Christine Gawinski presented her thesis, "Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Mesozooplankton Secondary Production in the Northern Barents Sea. Are Small Copepods Important?" – a work that offers valuable insights into the ecology of small copepods and the complexities of secondary production in the context of climate change. Congratulations, Christine, on this impressive achievement!
The latest research results from the ORANGE project, funded by the National Science Centre Poland (2021/41/B/NZ8/03830), were recently presented at the 57th European Marine Biology Symposium in Naples. The findings revealed significant differences in carotenoid and mercury levels in the diet and blood of little auks from various colonies in Greenland and Svalbard, sparking our interest in further exploration of this topic. We hope to publish the results of this research soon and will be sure to keep you updated.
Learn more about the ORANGE project and our research on little auks and zooplankton in the Arctic in the latest edition of ACADEMIA, the magazine of the Polish Academy of Sciences.
Konkurs NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC POLSKA „Piekno lasu”
- wyróżnienie, autor: Kaja Ostaszewska "Piękno lasu, w czym się objawia? W majestacie drzew, ciszy, a może tajemniczych spojrzeniach zwierząt, których spotkanie sprawia, że serce zaczyna bić szybciej? Na zdjęciu bór sosnowy zimą i spoglądający na nas ukradkiem łoś. Czy bez niego las byłby nadal tak piękny?" https://www.national-geographic.pl/galeria/autorom-tych-zdjec-udalo-sie-uchwycic-piekno-lasu-zobacz-zwycies/konkurs-piekno-lasu-10 |
