I learned a huge amount recording this podcast on equine grass sickness. It’s a devastating disease impacting at least one in 200 UK #horses a year. We’re hoping to find out it’s cause and stop that toll. Listen to learn more. #EGS @MoredunComms

For our latest #HuttonPodcast, we take a journey up to 600 m high on the #Balmoral Estate with the experts from our #peatland team. What looks like a normal barren hill is in fact an outdoor #laboratory for peatland experiments. 🔊Listen now: bit.ly/3qzJ8GK Preview:

Our @HuttonEBS team has been out in Perthshire taking #soil, water and #wildlife scat (poo) samples. These samples will help to hunt down the #microorganism that causes Johne’s disease, a fatal wasting disease in #cattle and #sheep. #Fridayinthefield

Had a fun day on Ben Lui sampling some high altitude soil for the @JamesHuttonInst #MunroSoils citizen science project. The project aims to collect DNA from soil across Scotland's alpine zone to understand biodiversity variability & provide a baseline to track future changes🧪⛰️

Being a #peatland hydrology & #greenhouse gas technician means climbing flux towers! We have a network of towers to measure greenhouse gas #emissions from peatland. This one @Natures_Voice Forsinard Flows Nature Reserve. #Fridayinthefield More: bit.ly/475VHKm

Our @HuttonES field team were recently at #Balmoral taking #peat core samples to measure #hydraulic conductivity. It can be a hard job just getting the equipment to site! But it will help us understand peat health and support our peatland team’s #science. #Fridayinthefield
