El viernes 26 estaremos en #Gijón en la #EuropeanResearchersNight con el stand "Las plantas viajeras" @universidadoviedo.bsky.social @imibasturias.bsky.social #science4all #MSCANight #NIGHTSpain

Attending #ATBC2025 in Oaxaca next week? Look us up to learn about \Smithsonian's Center for Conservation & Sustainability work in #Peru! Asistirás a #ATBC2025 en Oaxaca la próxima semana? Buscanos para conocer el trabajo del Centro para la Conservación & la Sostenibilidad del #Smithsonian en Peru

Looking forward to seeing the people on this starter pack at #ATBC2025 If you want to be added to this list, please let me know. 🧪 in 🇲🇽 go.bsky.app/FSQE1vP

Interested in biodiversity, macroecology, spatial ecology, conservation? @nmouquet.bsky.social put together a global ecology starter pack, two volumes are already full but you can DM @global-ecology.bsky.social to join the Vol_3. Let’s keep the community growing 🌐

Postdoc call in Mechanistic Biodiversity Modelling (up to 6 ya) at my lab @unibonn.bsky.social. We focus on modelling terrestrial plant communities, island biogeography, range dynamics, eco-evolutionary feedbacks, diversity gradients, tropical forests, vascular epiphytes. Pls rt! shorturl.at/CL1ny

Join us for a fun and interesting applied seminar with @dylancraven.bsky.social!

Our webinar about TRY with Jens Kattge has just started. You can still join for free at us06web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

Discovering the beauty of Asturias: an idyllic "Hayedo" and a terrestrial orchid (Orchid mascula)... 🌳🌲🪻 So many species and habitats yet to see and learn.

Going back home after a few days in Halle, Germany, where we presented our work on habitat monitoring using remote sensing at the meeting of sPlot, the Global Vegetation database, followed by the annual meeting of our MOTIVATE project motivate-biodiversity.eu

Meeting of sPlot, the Global Vegetation Database, has started in Halle, Germany. Gabriella Damasceno is presenting a remarkable extension of the database between versions 3.0 and 4.0.

One of the fun things about living in Gijón! An incredible talk on arqueobotany by Leonor Peña-Chocarro. A trip to the past through the remains of plants and their fruits! (And much more...) 🌿🌳🍑🌽🫘 Organized by the Atlantic Botanical Garden of Gijón and the University of Oviedo.

#Invasives as #AccidentalEpiphytes I spotted young #palms🌴 on the knotholes of 2 Platanus trees 🌳. A few meters ahead... Trachycarpus fortunei: Introduced as ornamental across the 🌍. In northwestern Spain is #naturalized, & north Switzerland is replacing local #vegetation, an invasive #neophyte!

Joi us! To our practical seminars. @iavs5.bsky.social

Yesterday I attended a really nice talk about functional ecology and ecosystem servicies, given by the outstanding scientific Sandra Díaz, who earned the Princess of Asturias Award for Technical and Scientific Research in 2019.

Today at @uniovi.bsky.social a very interesting meeting with Sandra Díaz, an internationlly recognized researcher focused on functional ecology and co-chair of the Global Biodiversity Assessment (IPBES).

Tropical forests are not all the same: they show many shades of geographical variation. Our new paper in Nature led by @jeaggu.bsky.social combines field and satellite data to make a first map the canopy functional traits of the world’s tropical forests: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🌟 An amazing study led by Rachel Turba and César Marín is now online! 🗺️ Non-native English speakers from the Global South spend much more time dealing with language issues, have limited access to funding sources and their publications have less visibility. More here: zenodo.org/records/1490...

Fun visit to the Atlantic Botanical Garden of Gijón with @borjajimalf.bsky.social and a #botany class. At least eight species of plants 🪴🏵️ growing as #accidental #epiphytes. Quercus full of surprises! I wonder if this counts towards the value of centenary #Quercus for #biodiversity.

Did you know that many "normal" plants grow accidentally as #epiphytes? 🪴🌿🪷🏵️ G. Zotz created this project www.inaturalist.org/projects/acc... to understand how often this happens? Under which conditions & in how many species occurs? Here examples from #Asturias! You can also contribute!

The Missouri Botanical Garden is launching a major initiative to revolutionize species identification! By combining data from our 8-million-specimen herbarium with AI tools, we aim to advance the study of plant biodiversity and provide unique insights for its conservation. 🌿 shorturl.at/tccro

There is still space left in the #biodiversity #redistribution starter pack ⬇️ If you are working on or interested in biodiversity responses, aka #species #range #shifts & #community #composition #changes, to global change drivers, I'd be happy to add you in the list 😀 go.bsky.app/6KqEpb9

The number of people in this Starter Pack has tripled since last week 😲 Check out/revisit to find ecologists & biologists who care about doing open, robust & transparent science @sortee.bsky.social 🧪🌏🌱🌳🐝🐞🦑🐟🦊🦘 DM if you're a member & want to be added 😀 #ecology #evolution go.bsky.app/44PpngU

Acabo de crear un starter-pack para ecologós en América Latina - !!! favor de sugerir más gente !!!! go.bsky.app/BdhnF3f

📣 Our series of free practical webinars Cutting vEdge Tools is back for a festive session focusing on different facets of vegetation and biodiversity data! Save the dates 📅 December 20th and January 31st. Be sure to register at forms.gle/rY89rZnZAWTn...

🙋🏾‍♀️ 🔵🦋, 4 my 1st 📬, I will like to introduce my study system: vascular epiphytes & our working group: the Epiphyte Inventory Group (EpIG). Check us out at: www.epigdatabase.org #Neotropics #biogeography #conservation #diversity
