Our mini-conference "Complex models in a complex environment" was a huge success! We had the pleasure of welcoming researchers who offered a statistical and modeling-driven perspective on forests. A big thanks to all the speakers and attendees for a stimulating and insightful event! 🌳🌲📊 #EnriCo

Pleased to invite you to the online seminar series "Forest Resilience: Science and Practice" by the #CompetenceCentreLandscapeResilience. We'll hear about exiting research and inspiring insights from the experts career journeys 🧭🌳🌲 🗓 Program & registration: www.uni-goettingen.de/de/701005.html

More pictures from theDay 2 for the PEPG 2025 workshop Many thanks to Mengjie Fan for an impressive video

Day 1 of the #PEPGWorkshop kicked off with inspiring talks on leaf gas exchange, fluorescence, water relations, roots & soil, and ecosystems 🌱✨ Afternoon = hands-on + networking!

Wildflower drawing class with Dr. Hinam!

Our Chair returned from an engaging week of ecology, discussion, and fun at #GfÖ2025. We were well-represented this year, with many PhD, postdoc and senior colleagues presenting their work on urban ecology, artificial light, grasslands, forests, biodiversity, chemodiversity, modeling, and lots more.

Sampling success at the @arnoldarboretum.bsky.social with @alyssakullberg.bsky.social and Thibaut. What an amazing place to work! If you have temperature thresholds data and want to join forces, let us know! You'll make us and @charlottegrossiord.bsky.social happy.

A bit nervous, but mostly excited about the @sebiology.bsky.social Plant Environmental Physiology Group Field Techniques workshop next week! Reading the required literature in the train right now 📑📚

The keynote by Zuzana Buřivalová at #gfoe2025 was amazing, and I was so delighted to see it also featured the beautiful artworks of Sarah Heuzeroth, perhaps slightly more famous for the Gemüsevögel or Vegetable Birds. Go SciArt!

Online seminar series: Forest Resilience: Science and Practice Of interest to students and researchers in forest sciences and related disciplines. Experts share their career journeys and latest research: www.uni-goettingen.de/de/701005.html Everyone interested welcome to join, so why not swing by?

First day at this years #gfoe2025 was a blast! See you at the deadwood session on Wednesday which I am hosting with my colleague Julia Moll. Talks will cover different species groups 🍄🦠🪲🐜 and processes in temperate and tropical forest. See you there!! @gfoesoc.bsky.social

Truly fascinating combination: the wonderful shots by @jan-haft.bsky.social beautifully accompanied by live music of "Orchester des Wandels" 🎶 - what a highlight at the #gfoe2025 Ice Breaker tonight! 🧊🥂 @gfoesoc.bsky.social

Are you at #gfoe2025 and curious about how sensitive Central European trees are to high temperatures? Come see my talk on Wednesday, September 3rd in Room 2.007 at 14:25!

Let the games aka #gfoe2025 begin @gfoesoc.bsky.social If you want to hear me speaking how a legacy of yet another white old men is disrupted by thousands of species, join my talk Thursday 10:45 Room 1.013

We've officially done the real-deal fieldwork after tree climbing course @rschwutke.bsky.social and @kieuthuyquynh.bsky.social completed their very first tree climbing work after the training to collect leaves samples. It was a huge, upward-bound step for our research, and we're so ready for more!

It's official! Huge congratulations to @christina-hn.bsky.social on her successful PhD defense! Her research reveals crucial insights into how trees in mixed forests handle drought, tackling vital plant-water relationships for climate resilience🌳🌲💧 We're celebrating your amazing work, Dr. Hackmann!

Say hello to Dr. Sharath Paligi! 🎉 We're incredibly proud of your work on the hydraulic efficiency and drought response of Douglas-fir, Norway spruce, and European beech. A truly fantastic piece of work! Huge congratulations, Sharath! 🌳🌲💧 @sharathpaligi.bsky.social #PhDone #Enrico

In the world’s hottest forests, scientists are probing how plants cope with rising temperatures. scim.ag/44hXEDY

As the world warms, plants in natural ecosystems and agricultural settings find ways to respond to the heat. In a new special issue of Science, researchers examine how heat affects plants at multiple scales, from the molecular level to the biosphere. (THREAD 🧵) scim.ag/44cSw3Z

bounty. wealth, even.

Nature has launched its seventh global survey of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) doctoral students, which will probe graduate students’ views about their goals and challenges, and their experiences of their studies so far. Survey runs until June 11. #Academicsky 🧪

During my first year of the PhD, I have learned valuable skills, such as 'connect these wires together', 'drive a cherry picker', 'drive a manual', and also 'take apart this very expensive machine and clean each part in a different way, then put it back together and hope it still works'.

Finally checked off "rove beetle wing folding" from my need to film list. New video up now: youtu.be/uvXxiUjw-xY

So excited to finally share our new paper charting the global spectrum of tree crown architecture, out today at @natcomms.nature.com ‬🧪🌐 Paper link 🔗: www.nature.com/articles/s41... A brief thread of what we found 🧵

🚨 Cool new project alert 🚨 WE- you, me, everyone- need to work together to get important science messages out to people. 4 artists & 3 scientists collab'd on these posters. We hope YOU will put them out in your community. Each poster comes w/info about each topic. Get 'em Squidfacts.bigcartel.com

I always underestimate how long things take when you do them 297 times (I have so many potted trees). Even just surveying them for pests or visual damage takes ages!

Field work can require rising to new challenges! Members of the third cohort participated in a tree-climbing course to be able to install wildlife cameras and collect samples in the tree canopy @rschwutke.bsky.social @kieuthuyquynh.bsky.social @jmanjie-z.bsky.social @MicaelaPineda 📸: Björn Lüdecke

Paper out! Seed survival, germination and seedling establishment of beech in mixed forests with Douglas-fir and spruce. Conifers had different effects depending on regeneration stage, e.g Douglas-fir increased beech seedling survival and Norway Spruce decreased it. doi.org/10.1016/j.fo...

dear new growth, please do not get sick with mysterious illnesses or beset by woolly aphids, please and thank you

Yesterday Tr*mp froze all NSF funds, today he announced a 56% budget cut. This is going to devastate science in the US. I've spent the morning calling my reps to raise hell and applying for jobs as it's clear I can't sustain my freelance scicomm business on NSF funding anymore (1/n) #scicomm #nsf 🧪
