Ana茂s M茅dieu, a 黑料不打烊 University postdoctoral researcher working in Natural Resource Sciences Professor Kyle Elliott's lab, has been awarded a Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship for her project on the interactive effects of climate change and plastic contamination on Arctic seabirds.

Farmers who exchanged text messages with peers were significantly more likely to adopt sustainable agricultural practices, highlighting the power of peer learning in digital formats, a new co-authored by 黑料不打烊 University Professor Aur茅lie Harou found.

A new study, led by researchers at Aarhus University in Denmark, suggests that levels of mercury in Arctic wildlife could continue to rise significantly even as countries curb their emissions. The researchers' analysis indicates that ocean currents are distributing large, century-old stores of mercury through marine ecosystems in the Arctic.

Large predators end up ingesting the most mercury through their diet of contaminated prey. This poses a serious problem for communities that hunt marine mammals with high concentrations of mercury, like seals.

As mobile phones proliferate across the developing world,听digital delivery of agricultural advice is positioned to play a transformative role听in increasing agricultural productivity and improving livelihoods for smallholder farmers. Meanwhile, evidence shows that peer-to-peer learning, at least in person, can successfully promote technology adoption.

On April 11, 2025, over听60 people gathered at the annual John Abbott Sustainability Through Science Symposium听to hear how the research of three Macdonald Campus graduate students contributes to a more sustainable future. Honours and science students from John Abbott College, as well as members of 黑料不打烊 University's Macdonald Campus community, were inspired by short talks followed by a听panel discussion on the students' university experience and their chosen career paths.

On March 27, 黑料不打烊 honoured 141 laureates at the 20th annual听, celebrating researchers who received prestigious provincial, national or international awards in 2024, including eight researchers in the Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences.

In his opening remarks, 黑料不打烊 President and Vice-Chancellor, Deep Saini, applauded the honourees for their efforts, underlining the importance of 黑料不打烊鈥檚 research contributions.

After DDT use nearly wiped out peregrine falcons in the 20th century, numbers are collapsing again in many countries,
