Landscape ecologists #WWU_Muenster study the interactions between plants and insects in the restoration of #ecosystems; they found out that plant provenance influences pollinators. @AnnaBucharova @BritishEcolSoc https://t.co/dYiknfUNvI https://t.co/CGNYGWLVqB
Yay, PhD paper published! 🥳
Interested in seeds for #restoration?
We installed a very cool experiment in the @BExplo_research grasslands and tested how land use and plant traits can help to predict establishment success.

No fieldwork was possible in 2020 for the #AmurBirdProject team in Russia, but we used the time to work with our data.
Hans-Jürgen Eilts, Benjamin Meißner & @JWobker95 worked at Muraviovka Park in 2017- now all three have their publications out: https://t.co/5sV7GCrYPo

An another thesis defense in times of Covid19: Big congratulations to Wieland Heim (@AmurBirdProject) for passing his PhD viva with flying colours! Innovative and extensive research on Asian #landbirds.
Congratulations! Alyona Koshkina just passed her PhD viva on #steppe#marmots and ground squirrels in Kazakhstan. Great talk linking remote sensing and fieldwork in project #BALTRAK. No drinks, but a chance for colleagues and guests from across Eurasia to participate virtually!
New paper elucidating the complex #moult strategies of the Pallas´s Grasshopper Warbler - a collaborative piece of work including bird ringing experts (@JAAllcock and many others) from all over East Asia: https://t.co/ZG5RK8Prbw #molt#ornithology
We showed the importance of litter removal through fire for #wetland dynamics based on data from the Russian Far East (4) https://t.co/ZcgWUE2Zup (6/6)
🔥 Land use and #climatechange modify #fire patterns and fire impacts on #ecosystems. We help to advance the understanding of fire effects with recent research across Eurasia. A Thread (1/6)
In wetlands of the Amur River in the Russian Far East, we found positive short-term fire effects for plant diversity, but negative for bird diversity (3) https://t.co/jsTpV7qkWe (5/6)
🔥Long-term legacies of #SiberianFires in subarctic tundra: slow lichen recovery (with implications for #permafrost thaw) but increased shrub vitality/encroachment after >44 years. New paper led by @RamonaJHeim:
