Our opinion piece on soil inoculations as a tool to restore biodiversity and resilience in afforestation on post-agricultural lands. It calls for targeted strategies and monitoring to optimize ecosystem recovery.

Individual species responses reveal that forest structure and soil factors can be as important for forest multi-taxa biodiversity. 🌳🌳🍄🪲🪳. Check out our new paper.

Excited to kick off our research with Malaise traps and @AudioMoth in Denmark! 🌳🐦🦋 Let's see how birds and flying insects respond to #NaturalForest colonization over the coming months. @DBByriel @SilvaNova_NNF #15. Juni Fonden

Fellow GHG fluxes enthusiasts, I need your help 🙏
I just created a new R package, and I could really use some feedback!
Please try it out 👇

Calculate GHG fluxes in R, from instruments such as LI-7810 from @LICOR_ENV and UGGA from @ABBgroupnews

Anna Zimmermann defended her thesis: “Diversity of surface-active arthropods in young forests in Denmark – Comparing the effects of afforestation by planting of trees and natural colonization of former agricultural land”.
Congrats from @DBByriel and the entire Silva Nova team!

@TokeHoye @Jeep4byFour We have plenty of samples. A lot of them belong to Diptera. Would be nice to get more knowledge on this group 🪰

[David Byriel @DBByriel]

Today we played around with a camera setup for our new stereo microscope. While there is certainly room for improvement, we were thrilled to be able to finally capture our beautiful insects.

@TokeHoye @Jeep4byFour @mdyrmann That's cool 😎🐝🦋🪰

[David Byriel @DBByriel]

@neolycus We just connected a camera for our Leica 205C, nothing fancy. We will try to get a new camera and play around with the light and camera settings 😄

[David Byriel @DBByriel]

@Jeep4byFour Sounds very interesting. We are already familiar with photo recognition and machine learning to ID. It seems that there is still a lot of work in training the algorithms. Especially because many of the insects we are working with are poorly known and resemble each other 🐝😅

@EFrby @HerbertNickel Det lyder voldsomt med op til 80% men der er jo mange insekter tilknyttet vegetation. Vil du linke til studiet?

[David Byriel @DBByriel]

Last Friday we celebrated a major accomplishment - the completion of sorting out insects from 168 sweep net samples with a worthy amount of grass seeds. The samples were collected in 42 whole-year grazed sites across Denmark. They bugged us for more than a year.

@EFrby @HerbertNickel Vi har ansøgt om at få penge til at udvide projektet med frahegninger, så vi kan undersøge forskelle mellem forskellige forvaltningsregimer, helårsgræsning, sommergræsning, slåning, urørt..

[David Byriel @DBByriel]

@ejrn_s Tak. Det er noget af en omgang. Vi sweepede i 10 minutter pr. plot. Vi har diskuteret om 10 minutter er i overkanten 😂

[David Byriel @DBByriel]

And thanks to the 15 June Foundation and Aage V. Jensen Nature Foundation @AVJNF for supporting the project

[David Byriel @DBByriel]

Thanks to all collectors, sorters, and hangarounds! @AslakKH @sebastiankpr @hjalterp

[David Byriel @DBByriel]

Next step is species identification of different taxa

[David Byriel @DBByriel]

New exciting paper out:

Ant mounds extend the duration of plant phenology events and enhance flowering success

Led by @RikkeReisner and collegues from AU and KU.
