1/11 Hello! Really excited to share what I’ve been working on since starting my PhD at @UK_CEH. My project is called ‘The impacts of long-term declines in insect abundance on ecosystem function’. I’m funded by @NERCscience’s @SCENARIO_DTP #WallingfordECRTweets #insectdeclines
2/11 I’m going to give you a peek at some results from my first data analysis on the hot topic of #insectdeclines – an important research area to achieve #post2020 #CBD targets. I’m interested in understanding long-term abundance change in freshwater invertebrates in England!

@AnneliesKusters on stage at #wfd2019 presenting on the @MobileDeaf team on International Sign (IS). IS is a phenomenon that comprises a lot of strategies in various contexts. Image
The level of conventionalization depends on context. Formal, conventionalized IS may be used at e.g. #WFD, but vocabulary and conventionalization varies with different events and contexts. #wfd2019
IS includes #translanguaging, #iconicity, and attitudes when approaching communication. The more experiences you bring, the more resources you can use when communicating. Interestingly, many outside Europe say they struggle with IS. #wfd2019 #signlanguages
