Another impressive thesis update talk by our MSc student Mara Kuschke: advised by @esme-ashe.bsky.social she studies how #thermoregulation of #grasshoppers varies with elevation in the Bavarian Alps. Great work, Mara!

Only few days left to apply for the full professorship in Functional Ecology at @unituebingen.bsky.social. We are looking for a female colleague to join our institute. Come and join us! Lots of opportunities for collaboration in a beautiful work place!

Last week our MSc student Karl Gehrig gave an update about his MSc thesis on how #butterflies change their #behaviour depending on their thermal preferences preferences. His work is supervised by @esme-ashe.bsky.social who leads our research theme of #thermalecology. Well done, Karl!

Open Letter by scientists to the Council: "Climate Neutrality Is Europe’s Greatest Economic Opportunity”. Ahead of the European Council meeting on 23.10.2025, 2,178 scientists urge EU Heads of States & Governments to take ambitious decisions for the 2040 targets. zenodo.org/records/1739...

We are happy and proud to host Mariana Prokupuk from the Ukrainian National Academy of Science as a guest researcher at our chair. With a Coimbra scholarship she studies ecological niches and traits of invasive aquatic plants. Welcome again, Mariana! www.biozentrum.uni-wuerzburg.de/en/gce/news/...

The Paris Agreement offers a powerful framework for a fairer, healthier world. But as extreme heat shows, every tenth of a degree matters. We need higher ambition to stop violating the rights of ever more people. - new @wwattribution.bsky.social study www.worldweatherattribution.org/ten-years-of...

Neben Klimawandel, Artensterben & Krieg waren die vielen armen Menschen, die jeden Tag heulend im Supermarkt zusammenbrechen weil sie den Veggieburger nicht von ihrem Fleischburger unterscheiden konnten, sicherlich eines der größten Probleme der Menschheit. Gut dass wir wenigstens das gelöst haben.

Puh – was gab es im Sommer für Prügel für meine Aussage zur Bedrohung der Landwirtschaft. Nun steht auch im aktuellen Aufruf der Meteorologischen und Physikalischen Gesellschaft genau dies drin. Ich bin fast erleichtert. Weil ich ständig selbst reflektiere, ob ich manchmal zu drastisch kommuniziere.

Thanks for a great talk on her PhD project by @anamaria-bu.bsky.social in our @globalchangeeco.bsky.social seminar. Check out her recent paper on the influence of island isolation on dispersal traits of bird communities on #islands globally: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Just quoting the final key point, which very few leaders seem to be acting on: "While policies are needed to protect people from heat, a rapid shift away from fossil fuels is the most effective way to avoid hotter and deadlier summers."

Amazing keynote by Zuzana Burivalova at #gfoe2025 on soundscapes, African tropical forests, and conservation. www.soundforestlab.org/soundscapeba...

Got inspired by all the fantastic research at #gfoe2025? Save the date for an even larger gathering of excellence in #ecology and #evolution at the joint #NSO2026 and #gfoe2026 meeting with @gfoesoc.bsky.social! See you on 14-17 Sep 2026 in Denmark! nordicsocietyoikos.glueup.com/event/nordic...

Super happy to hear @bugecology.bsky.social as keynote on @gfoesoc.bsky.social #gfoe2025 talking about species range dynamics A topic he's also working on w sDiv support @idiv-research.bsky.social Check www.idiv.de/sred

If you are curious about Wallace type of regionalization re-assessment @bugecology.bsky.social mentioned #gfoe2025 Come to my talk & let's talk about the legacy of yet another old white dead men's legacy.

Congratulations dear Volker Grimm (www.ufz.de/index.php?en... to the honorary medal of the @gfoesoc.bsky.social #gfoe2025 He helped me a lot in my early synthesis years @idiv-research.bsky.social always calling for involving theory Maybe we still write the paper we talk about since 10 years.🤭😱

Happy to have this chapter of my PhD out!🥳 🐝🪲🍁🌳

Derweil versucht die Bundesregierung, eMobilität, Wärmepumpen und Erneuerbare zu bremsen und stattdessen in fossiles Gas zu investieren und es gar zu subventionieren. Man kann nur hoffen, dass Gerichte diese Verantwortungslosigkeit stoppen.

"Wenn sich der Klimanotstand Jahr für Jahr verschärft, müssen wir über Legislaturperioden hinausdenken und die Klimanotstandspolitik in eine Staatspolitik verwandeln, die alle Institutionen und alle Regierenden einbindet", so der spanische Regierungschef. www.tagesschau.de/ausland/euro...

🚜🌾🐦🪲🌞🍽️ Was braucht es, damit Agrarlandschaften zu Klima- & Biodiversitätsschutz beitragen? Und wie hängt das mit den eigenen Konsumentscheidungen zusammen? Darum wird es im Open Lab Abend am Futurium in Berlin gehen, den meine Gruppe am 18. September organisiert: futurium.de/de/open-lab-...
