Have you noticed how dry springs and summers are becoming more frequent? Do you wonder about the consequences they might have for natural ecosystems? Then have a look at our new paper in @global changebio.bsky.social !

🤯🤯🤯

Are tropical forests in the Americas changing as adaptation to ongoing climate change? Yes, they are! Are these changes enough to track their suitable climate? Not quite! Check out our paper in @science.org www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... to see more of what our network has been working on!

Really nice and somehow also really worrying paper 🥺

These points are so crucial! I’ve seen so many posts about the loss of fieldwork experience based on the new publication, but few have mentioned paths forward. I’d like to add that fieldwork takes a lot of *time* - so we also need long-term funding and longer contracts for people.

The PSECO lab was at #BES2024 this week! We spoke about links between plant traits and soil communities, drought-induced shifts in the effect of microbes on plant-plant interactions, and drought effects on soil biodiversity in agricultural systems. @marigliesch.bsky.social @annacloc.bsky.social

#BES2024 coming to the party tonight? Get your onions* ready *people think the bauble on the name badge looks like an onion. It is not an onion. But it is your ticket to the party tonight, 8.30 PINS Social Club. See you there.

Hey hey dear ecologists! If you are around Liverpool for #BES2024 and interested in drought, microbes and plant interactions, come to my talk tomorrow at the Species Interaction section in room 3B - or come find me after to chat about any of these 🙃

In the 🚂 to #BES2024 and looking forward to a great week of science! If you are interested in how plant communities shape microbial drought response, come see my talk on Wednesday :-)

Happy World Soil Day!! #WSD #worldsoilday #mite #mesofauna #macro #macrophotogrpahy

It’s out!! We subjected soils from 30 different locations across Europe to extreme events and found that soil fungal and bacterial communities showed consistent responses that could be predicted from their origin! With @knightjar.bsky.social and many collaborators! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
