2ndFOR

Collaborative research network focusing on the ecology, dynamics, biodiversity, and ecosystem services of tropical secondary forests.

[UN Biodiversity @UNBiodiversity]

Over 80% of the world’s terrestrial #biodiversity can be found in forests; their destruction threatens the survival of many species.

Forest landscape restoration can help reverse these losses.

Updating the model of secondary succession in the Tropics (https://t.co/UQrsAhRnY7) - a wonderful collaboration led by #NadjaRuger @2ndFOR1 @InvestigaUMayor @CEM_UMayor

@ManuelGuarigua1 I think you are doing great, Manuel! At the next ATBC meeting we will drink that beer together😀!

[2ndFOR @2ndFOR1]

@DylanJCraven @PoorterLourens It just started! You still can join!😀

[2ndFOR @2ndFOR1]

Wonderful to meet live! We had a nice 2ndFOR workshop @ #ATBC2022 in Cartagena to discuss collaboration within the network. (With Jorge Meave being virtually amongst us!)

[2ndFOR @2ndFOR1]

Toasting with the 2ndFOR research network at #ATBC2022 4 the now already famous paper with Catarina Jakovac in Sc Adv. Can you recognize at least 10 people? Then we invite you a beer!😀https://t.co/nVdKn6waAj

Young #secondary #forests show strong floristic variation across the #Neotropics, with 14 regions differing in #species composition. This is surprising, as it was thought they would be dominated by a few widespread pioneer species.Jakovac @2ndFOR1 in ScAdv https://t.co/dzuGEx3c42

Check out a new paper with @PoorterLourens in @PLOSCompBiol:

Ten simple rules for managing communications with a large number of coauthors https://t.co/uQB5SSEt9j

[2ndFOR @2ndFOR1]

And here is how you can assess forest dynamics for your landscape as well!

[2ndFOR @2ndFOR1]

A supercool tool to assess forest landscape dynamics!

Brandnew @2ndFOR1 paper just out in @PNASNews on the functional trait recovery during secondary succession across the Neotropics, by @PoorterLourens and many others!

[ForestGEO @ForestGEO]

Please RT: A call for papers! ForestGEO postdoc, Nobby Kunert, is guest editing a special edition of @Forests_MDPI focused on nutrients and water use of trees on tropical forests. Manuscripts submissions due 31 May 2020: https://t.co/CkuwejgOQa @ForestPlots @2ndFOR1

A study finds that close to a trillion trees could potentially be planted on Earth—enough to sequester more than 200 billion tons of carbon. But environmental change on this scale is no easy task. https://t.co/7M2sO7djik

We will be at the #ATBC2019 in #Madagascar! Will you? Early Bird
Registration is open until tomorrow! @theATBC https://t.co/oj9bEjbAPW
