Really happy to have this out in @JEcology: C4 photosynthesis & the economic spectra of leaf & root traits independently influence growth rates in grasses. A thread about our findings.. bit.ly/3cD0JBk

@adamsgotamardon @town__planner @RobertKwolek @NeilMurphy1978 @thevicsoc @The_RSAW @PlanningShit @edwinheathcote @C20Society @RTPICymru @storefronts8 Might be of interest... a recent paper published by colleagues and myself - link.springer.com/epdf/10.1057/s…

We are on strike again @LandscapeSheff !The weather is not on our side this morning but we want fair pensions, secure contracts and equal pay for those working in higher education. #UCUstrikes #UCUstrikesback

I did a scary thing! Gave a radio interview about plants and fire. They did an excellent job editing out my ‘urms’. You can hear it here: bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0…

@AleClubFul @AleClubFul whatch gona have on the taps for the grand openning?

BIG announcement! We open this Sat (14th Dec)!🥳🍻🥳 You might need to bring a paintbrush to help finish off 😉 but we open at 12pm We’ve been blown away by the support & kind words from passers by. We look forward to having a drink with you all from this weekend onwards! 🍻🥂🍷

‘so how is the house renovation going? have you started the bathroom yet?’ ... me: ‘yeh, bathroom has kind of started itself’ ...

Great presentation for @LandscapeSheff LSC330 today from @AimeeFelstead on social and spatial patterns that enable participation in #cohousing landscapes! For more info - mdpi.com/2071-1050/11/2…

Last week, Kevin Thwaites, @JMS_SMP & I published a paper (a first for me!) summarising the theory of #urbancommons and #urbanspace into a framework for designing shared residential landscapes. It's #openaccess so you can read it here: doi.org/10.3390/su1121…

@createstreets They are essential! Mobile eye-tracking in streets has shown we often look at them (street edge) more than anywhere else - doi.org/10.1080/175491…, with over 90% of this visual engagement being focused on their ground floors - doi.org/10.3390/su1115….

Do facades matter to the quality of the street?
