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…

@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!

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/…

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

Come be our colleague @idiv! We're recruiting a new W3 (full) professorship on 'Biodiversity in the Anthropocene' to be based at the Core iDiv centre in Leipzig (the professorship is @UniJena). idiv.de/en/about_idiv/…

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…

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…

The first day of #BE2023 is soon coming to an end. We had lively discussions about infrastructure, plants, forest& deadwood – and we a great keynote presentation by Nathaly Guerrero Ramirez. A good start and we are looking forward to many interesting talks tomorrow!

Our work with @grusonh is finally published online (and OA) in @EcographyJourna at doi.org/10.1111/ecog.0… We present {fundiversity} an #rstats📦to compute functional diversity indices! It's on avg. 1-2 orders of magnitude faster than others, has tests, and is fully documented twitter.com/LeNematode/sta…

PhyloPic is an amazing resource - you can even directly integrate silhouettes into your R-Script for plotting purposes! Thanks to the creators and contributors 🙏 phylopic.org twitter.com/PhyloPic/statu…

It has been over a decade since a student was enrolled in a botany degree in the UK. Experts believe there has been a gradual erosion of knowledge about plants among biology graduates and the general public as a result. bit.ly/3FORbnU
