🌳Climate-driven range shifts in alpine plants require recruitment beyond tree lines. For P. cembra, seed origin & maternal reproductive traits drive seedling establishment, potentially outweighing microclimate & maternal genetics @valgra.bsky.social @aaronkauffeldt.bsky.social 👉️ buff.ly/NyNPcJb

Good news! #Biodiversity🦜🐜🐒🐸 in a tropical #rainforest 🌴🇪🇨can naturally recover quickly 📈 (if the conditions are suitable = enough surrounding forest). Our new study in #Nature #forestecol #restoration @jocotoco.bsky.social www.reassembly.de/posts/recove... www.reassembly.de/news/rainfor...

Better late than never 😅 Happy to share that the final paper of my PhD was out this February in @journalofecology.bsky.social ! We asked: what drives the functional recovery of seed rain as tropical forests regnerate after disturbances? 🫘🌿 @reassemblynet.bsky.social #restoration #forestecol

🇪🇨🌳 ¿Puede un bosque recuperarse después de la deforestación? Un estudio reciente en el Chocó ecuatoriano demuestra que sí. Los hallazgos aquí. ⬇️ es.mongabay.com/2026/01/recu...

A Christmas message.

Delighted to hear that The Invisible Doctrine, the film by @peterhutchison.bsky.social and @lucas-sabean.bsky.social, is being offered free to view on YouTube for the holiday season. It's all yours! youtu.be/gR4eSEetKP0

New postdoctoral fellowship opportunity! Please pass along. Excited to announce the launch of the Tom Lovejoy Fellowship Program at the University of Arizona for innovative research to protect species, sustain ecosystems, and promote a thriving planet lovejoycenter.arizona.edu/lovejoy-fell... 🧪🌐🌾

Restoration ultimately aims to recover complex ecological systems with many interdependent species at large scale To understand the driving processes, we combined experiments & modelling Finding a trade-off between species recovery and food-web complexity onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Excited to share that the second paper of my PhD is out in @currentbiology.bsky.social 🍈🦜🍒🐒🍊🐿️ We show that the functional diversity of seed-dispersal interactions in tropical forests takes circa 20 years to recover after deforestation. You can read it here: www.cell.com/current-biol...

Our latest nutcracker paper is out! In a collaborative effort between @sgn.one and @vogelwarte.bsky.social we show how bird age can affect seed dispersal 🐥🌱 #ProcB @royalsocietypublishing.org Avian seed dispersal function is age dependent doi.org/10.1098/rspb... @matthiastschumi.bsky.social

Happy to share that the first paper of my PhD is out! We developed a trait-based framework 🌱🦜 to quantify how plant-frugivore interactions and animal movement shape plant functional connectivity—the dispersal of seeds between habitat patches. royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

Different generations of @sgn.one Functional Ecology group at @soctropecol.bsky.social 😊

go.bsky.app/3Qp6YYL We have created this promising starter pack 🫶🏼 All seed dispersal lovers are welcome 🤗!

Can we use tree-related microhabitats (TreMs)🌳 as indicators of #tropical #biodiversity? Our new study led by Giovanni Bianco shows that TreM diversity actually increases with temperature and decreases with human impact on Kilimanjaro 🇹🇿 Now published in Ecological Indicators: doi.org/10.1016/j.ec...
