Starting article 2

Yes, the first article is almost finished. So, when the other guys are reading and improving i'm starting up the second article. The lab work and carbon-nitrogen analysis is done so I just have to do the statistical analysis and then write..  I've already written the method (except for the part explaining the statistical analysis, scince I have not done that yet). I will work very much the forthcomming weeks, starting to read alot about mycel production and the importance of mycorrhiza in arctic ecosystems. I hope I will be almost done whit article 2 in the beginning of summer (very short of time). The 9th of June I'm going to Denmark for a PhD Isotope course. exciting indeed! The 23rd of August I'm going to Greenland for gas flux measurments, that's also very exciting! =) Just have a look at this link. The fieldstation seems to be placed on a very beautiful location! I have also applied for another isotope course in Nancy, France in late September. And the third article (gas fluxes on Greenland) are supposed to be done in January 2013, Good luck to me! =)

Except for studying I'm climbing very much righ now, outside on the real mountains ofcourse! And also biking! We are starting up a project for long distance biking. We need other bikes and other equipments for long travelling. i.e. bike bags, comfortable sitting position etc. Nice to have something else to do and to have something to look forward! For swedish people; have a look at the bike blog.  But still, Mountain biking is the real fun according to me!

It's spring time, let's go out and have some fun!

In the middle of everything

The title of this post is describing my life very well.. I'm rewriting one text at the same time as i'm starting up the new project about mycel production in the mountains. It's actually a very nice mix of writing and lab work. And lucky me, the course in history of science is about to end (in two weeks or so). What i'm trying to say here is that i'll be a better blogger in a few weeks because i'll soon have some more interesting things to write about, but also more time for writing!

But, I'll ofcoarse show you a picture on hyphae!



I'll tell you everything about hyphae another time!
