Oportunidade de Pós-Doutorado / Post-doctoral Research Opportunity in our lab!

Please pass along, I’m recruiting PhD students to join our Macroecology Lab @uofa-eeb.bsky.social We study phys ecology, macroecology, biodiversity - spanning scaling, trait-based ecology, theory, comparative biology & ecoinformatics. Several avenues for funding. Please reach out if interested🧪🌐🌾

🔥🌳🌴Check out this exhaustive overview of how #traits may mediate the impact of #fire on (tropical) #forests and vice versa, led by PhD student David Pacuk! An important start to better understand fire resilience of fire-unadapted forests!🔥🌳🌴

🔥🌱 From the upcoming #AJB Special Issue: “Understanding novel #fire regimes using plant trait‐based approaches" 🌱🔥 Toward a functional understanding of novel fire regimes in tropical #forests By David Pacuk, Peter van der Sleen, Frank Sterck & @masha-vandersande.bsky.social doi.org/10.1002/ajb2...

Please pass along - postdoc position! with our working group on #FunctionalTraits and rarity. This is part of the FREE (Functional Rarity in Ecology and Evolution) working group led by Cyrille Violle in Montpellier France 🧪🌐🌾 emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/U...

🔥Excited to introduce our #ERC #StG project ‘FiRes’, on past, present and future #fire #resilience of #Amazonian forests!🔥 In an era of increasing #fire occurrence globally, we cannot have enough research to understand its impact, especially in precious fire-‘unadapted’ ecosystems such as the Amazon

This what Israel has done to Gaza. Forbidden pics by a Washington Post photographer whose Jordanian air crew didn't pass on Israel's order to only photograph aid being dropped. City, suburbs, schools, people: bombed to rubble. People being starved in makeshift camps on road roundabouts. #Genocide

How do tropical #trees deal with droughts? The answer is published today in @science.org Our pantropical #treering analysis revealed 2.5% growth reduction during #drought years. Yet, growth declined by >10% in 1/4 of 500 study sites, and in hotter & drier regions. doi.org/10.1126/scie... 🌍🍁🌐 (1/4)

“Bolivia’s record-setting 2024 wildfire season makes clear that emergency responses to climate disasters are not enough and governments must address the root of the problem, a new report says.” insideclimatenews.org/news/2607202...

PhD position in our Wildlife Ecology and Conservation group at @w-u-r.bsky.social on the effectiveness of freshwater wetlands as climate buffers for biodiversity gain and ecosystem services Co-supervised by Liesbeth Bakker, Frank van Langevelde, and myself Deadline: 4.8. www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p...

Postdoc position in the lab of @biogeokreft.bsky.social for developing your own line of research in macroecology, biogeography, and functional or tropical ecology: www.uni-goettingen.de/en/644546.ht...

This 👇🏼 confirms the tragedy we’ve witnessed in the Bolivian Amazon, with 2024 as record fire year.🔥 And it’s the reason we’re studying Amazon’s fire resilience in Madidi, Pilón and Chiquitanía.

⚡Striking impacts on forests!⚡ Our perspective on how lightning impacts forest dynamics, through igniting fires in boreal forests and being a major cause of tree mortality in tropical forests.🔥🌳⚡ Led by Sander Veraverbeke @vuamsterdam.bsky.social @globalchangebio.bsky.social doi.org/10.1111/gcb....

Hello all, I've just arrived (and left X)! I'm a researcher interested in anything related to fire ecology, tropical forests, Amazon, paleo & neo ecology, forest succession & restoration. Looking forward to connect!
