Exciting - our article on synthesing #tree #diversity stat in #vegetation science is among the 25 most accessed in @JVegSci over the last 12 months! @BioGeoKreft @tif_knight @DylanJCraven @Weigelt_P @evoblackrim @Masha_vdSande doi.org/10.1111/jvs.13…

🚨 Deadline approaching! Four more days left to submit an abstract to Island Biology 2023 in Lipari. Please submit until March 31st! Follow the link here: sib-2023.sciencesconf.org

Long‐term trajectories of non‐native plants on islands! Fantastic team effort led by @ArchipelagoAnna @FranzEssl1 @ManuSteinbauer @CarlatGCE @PAlvarocb @CindyFroyd @FossilPollen @ISLANDPALECO @thatpollenguy @ErikJdeBoer @FdezPalaciosLab @Bernd_le_ @LCR_LTEL and others 😊 twitter.com/Bernd_le_/stat…

@SuzetteFlantua kicked off the day of our first start-up meeting at @uniGoettingen. This week we will discuss fundamental questions of our research with our international collaborators. Thank you @mohnfoundation for funding this important trip!

Check out our cool @PPFalpine project to stay informed on global alpine biodiversity ! twitter.com/PPFalpine/stat…

Beyond upset by a comment from a Subject Editor: "only able to secure two reviewers from the same country than the first author. This fact leads us to question on the global relevance of your paper." If the lead author were from the US/Europe, I doubt if they would say the same.

Are you interested to do a PhD at @uniGoettingen ? We invite applications for a PhD position to assess ecosystem functions of alley cropping #agroforestry systems in Lower Saxony, Germany. For more details see: uni-goettingen.de/en/644546.html… Application deadline: April 1, 2023

Rare Trees – discover the beauty and importance - of the world's most threatened tree species in our new book – out next week! @sarabotanical @MalinRivers @timberpress

Super interesting paper but one statement really surprised me (maybe because of my botanical ignorance): "we estimated the total biomass of wild marine mammals at ≈40 Mt (95% CI 20-80 Mt), with baleen whales comprising more than half of this mass." 🐋🐋 pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

What promotes ecosystem functions along with profit in industrial oil palms? Research at our Uni shows that shifting to mechanical weeding and reducing fertiliser can improve both: ogy.de/u1pv, research @naturesustainab: doi.org/10.1038/s41893… #sustainability

We will be joining @enrico_unigoe in October ‘23! If you are interested how enrichment of European #beech forests with conifers affects #soil greenhouse gas fluxes and nutrient response efficiency, maybe subproject 3 is for you. #phdstudent twitter.com/enrico_unigoe/…

Die Stadt Göttingen hat ihren Wal gemalt! Mehr als 500 Bilder vom Kindergarten bis zum Erwachsenen, echte Kunstwerke! Kommen Sie und sehen im @ForumWissenGoe !Am 19.03. werden die Preise an die Gewinner verliehen. Herzlichen Dank für Ihre Teilnahme! #Walheimat @biodiversitygoe

Also Daniel raises the bar for PhD candidates which are now highly encouraged to hand in a 6th copy of the dissertation as a delicious cake! Finally you get something refuelling for years of supervision!

Very happy to share our preprint on 'the contribution of plant life and growth forms to global gradients of vascular plant diversity'. @BioGeoKreft @BioGeoMacro @Weigelt_P @lrcai 1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Conventional #PalmOil management can be more #sustainable and more profitable by simple measures, we show in a new paper by with first authors @E_dris and Greta Formaglio published in @naturesustainab @efforts_crc990 @RSPOtweets @PalmOilFarmer open access: rdcu.be/c6M0D

Happy to share our new @efforts_crc990 paper published in @naturesustainab from @EdzoVeldkamp lab. We show that replacing herbicides with mechanical weeding and reducing fertilizer usage in industrial #oilpalm can promote both ecosystem functions & profit. rdcu.be/c6M0D

Is there any way to alleviate the negative impacts of conventional oil palm 🌴 plantations? Short answer: YES! And it's even profitable. Check out our new @efforts_crc990 #OPMX paper @naturesustainab nature.com/articles/s4189…

Leichen werden an italienischen Stränden angespült, weil Europa lieber eine Mauer aus Toten zur Abschreckung baut, als Menschen in Seenot zu suchen und zu retten. Meine erste Rede im EU-Parlament dazu ist leider immer noch aktuell. #Seenotrettung #Mittelmeer #leavenoonebehind
