EucFACE Expedition
Visiting EucFACE during SIBS 2023 was unforgettable â the worldâs only mature forest CO2 enrichment site! Our hosts from Western Sydney University showed how isotopes reveal how rising CO2 affects soils, plants, and microbes.
Chasing the Storm
During SIBS 2020, a surprise hailstorm hit Canberra with golf ballâsized hail. Instead of running for cover, we grabbed our vials! Soon we were sampling hailstones to analyse how isotope ratios vary from surface to core â pure scientific curiosity in action!
I was new stable isotope research before attending SIBS. Despite being new to this field, I found myself leaving the workshop with both direction and understanding that I didn't think possible in just a week. The presenters were all incredibly knowledgable and from a broad range of disciplines. I talked with plant and soil researchers about how their work might be applicable to my research in entomology, which was a unique opportunity for cross discipline discussion. It was the perfect atmosphere to learn, chat and make friends. I would reccomend it to any researcher interested in isotopes!

Iâm really glad I attended the SIBS 2026 workshop during my first year of PhD. The knowledge and skills I gained will be extremely useful for my research. The workshop felt like an intensive module on isotopes, offering a wealth of information. It was also a fantastic networking opportunity, allowing me to connect with others working on similar research topics. The food and accommodation were well managed, making the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I think it was an excellent eventâI truly loved it.

I attended the 2026 SIBS workshop in Camden. It was a busy week filled with presentations, with some hands-on experience using isotopes to understand soil-plant interactions. I walked away from the workshops feeling inspired to continue using isotopes in my soil and pasture research and dreaming up experiments for the future. A great week, and wonderful opportunity for networking and knowledge sharing. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking about the use of isotopes in their research work.
