Publication out on the effect of climate on traits of dominant and rare tree species in the world’s forests in natcomms.nature.com‬rdcu.be/enby2

We are hiring 2 PhD candidates working on resilience of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning across landscapes. Daily supervision by myself, @dominic-martin.bsky.social @iris-hordijk.bsky.social @lucianachr.bsky.social and Merel Hofmeijer. Details & application here: www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p...

Last month I presented #ECTE2025 a study from the #PANTROP project (pantrop-eu.com) on growth form replacement in early succession. The succes of natural forest recovery is not only determined by the arrival or regrowth of trees, but also the competition with growth forms such as grasses and ferns.

Happy to have contributed to this interesting study on landscape diversity! Thank you for the lead Sarah Mayor & Pascal Niklaus and being persistent to get it published @simonsaysenjoy.bsky.social

Our research is finally out 📜 @natureportfolio.bsky.social in our publication we show that #landscape_diversity 🏞️promotes #productivity using #remote_sensing on a continental scale 🌎 across 20 years Thanks to everyone who contributed✨ #University_of_Zurich #URPP_GCB www.nature.com/articles/s43...
