There's never a dull moment on Coal Spoil Habitat... And if Fossils make your day... Go take a look! A massive, what looks to be, Calamites from the Carboniferous period. #fungi #mycology #biodiversity #natureconnection #citizenscience #coalspoil #coalspoilhabitat #fossilhunting #Carboniferous

A photographer could have captured this Calocera pallidospathulata - Pale Stagshorn amazingly, but I hope I've captured some of its beauty at just 2mm tall #fungi #mycology #mushrooms #Conservation #biodiversity #ecology #natureconnection #citizenscience #dacrymyces #calocera #fungiphotography

DYK? Dazzling solar flares like this one blast electrons into space, which emit radio waves as they collide with other particles. We're looking for volunteers to dig through 15 000 chunks of data from our #SolarOrbiter mission to find these 'radio wave bursts'. 🔭 🧪 ☀️ #CitizenScience #AcademicSky

NASA is asking the public to help with studying this phenomena. Noctilucent clouds form high in the atmosphere and may hold clues about climate and upper air changes. You can contribute with just your camera. #CitizenScience #NoctilucentClouds #Atmosphere 📷🧪⚒️ science.nasa.gov/get-invo….

Space Cloud Watch Needs Your Photos of Night-Shining Clouds - NASA Science

Noctilucent or night-shining clouds are rare, high-altitude clouds that glow with a blue silvery hue at dusk or dawn when the Sun shines on them from below

After 12 long years, my book “Gaming Cancer” was published today with @mitpress.bsky.social. Its basic premise is that by embedding scientific problems into the mechanics of games, we increase our chances of finding cures to diseases like cancer. #seriousgames #citizenscience.

I made a flyer! Know anyone in CA, OR, WA, or BC who might be interested in collecting mushrooms for research purposes? #mycology #citizenscience Please share widely! 🧪 🍄‍🟫 🌲 A PDF version can be found here: drive.proton.me/urls/W1MM….

A help-wanted poster seeking volunteer mushroom collectors in California, Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia.

The poster provided some background info about the research project and study system and how folks can contribute if they are interested.

REQUEST | Calling all mycophiles, naturalists, and citizen scientists in CA, OR, WA, and BC!

Going for a hike in the woods or a walk in your neighborhood park?
• Please keep your eyes peeled for the purple mushrooms of L.a-o!
• Collect the mushrooms* if you are able to access them safely.
• If you can, please take a photo of the mushrooms and the tree(s) you find them under.
*If you find a mushroom that is clearly rotten or moldy, please don't collect it.

"I collected some purple mushrooms. What should I do now?"
1. Please keep the mushroom fresh:
• Store in paper, not plastic.
• Keep cool/ refrigerate, but do not freeze.
• Store mushrooms away from light.
2. Email me to arrange pick-up, delivery, or shipment* of your sample.

"What's in it for those who contribute to this work?"
• You will receive acknowledgement in presentations and publications stemming from this research.
• You will receive copies of journal publications from this research (data available upon request).
• You are invited to attend presentations of this research and to visit the lab at Stanford University.

Page 2 of the help-wanted poster includes reference photos of the study organism and a map of where this species has been observed. All images and the map are sourced from iNaturalist.

The thing about field biology is that it gets you out into a whole heap of nature. Who knows what you’ll encounter on a #citizenscience species monitoring trip? A couple of weeks ago I had this lovely experience on the way back from… #CallTrackers #WildOz 🧪🌏🌿🦉🦇
