Very happy to share this new article on Andes-Amazon tree diversity change. We found that over the last 4 decades, tree richness changed differently across the Andes-Amazon regions. Thanks to the many researchers across the world who made this possible! www.nature.com/articles/s41... Keep reading!

Calling on all forest disturbance experts: Please consider contributing to our study on global forest disturbance change, and help resolve the nuances of changing forest disturbance regimes. More details and survey here: www.lss.ls.tum.de/edfm/disturb...

🧵1/5 🌍🔬 Our new paper is out! We identify the global mechanisms shaping the elemental composition of organisms — and the results overturn long-standing assumptions in ecology. 👇 Thread ↓ doi.org/10.1038/s414...

🧵4/5 We also show that broad latitudinal patterns — like higher P content in plants at higher latitudes — are caused mostly by species turnover, not by changes within species themselves. Ecosystem chemistry shifts because the species present change, not because individuals physiologically adjust.

Tomorrow!!

Tropospheric nitrogen dioxide concentrations measured over Europe on 8 Oct. High concentrations can be seen in Italy’s Po Valley, along the north coast of Africa, and in other hotspots. NO2 is released during the combustion of fossil fuels and is known to exacerbate various health conditions. 😷

Although many ecosystems can weather several years of moderate drought, consecutive years of extreme dryness push them past a tipping point, resulting in dramatic declines in plant growth, researchers report in Science. https://scim.ag/4ogN9I8

Muy interesante trabajo sobre el rol fundamental del plancton que construye conchas de carbonato cálcico. No obstante, la relación Ca:C de sus conchas es 1:1. Me pregunto si la disponibilidad de calcio disuelto en el océano puede llegar a ser un factor limitante de esta importante bomba de carbono…
