Curious about new #palms in European nature?🌴🌿Check our study: The alien Chinese windmill palm (Trachycarpus fortunei) impacts forest #vegetation and regeneration on the southern slope of the European Alps @ApplVegSci https://t.co/Z2ytUZuAW4. Thx @Vincent_Fehr for leading!🌴
MSc-thesis @WSL_research & @Vogelwarte_scie with @MatthiasTschumi, @urskorme & me:
You will investigate the seed #dispersal community of the #invasive Chinese windmill palm in Ticino (CH) using camera traps focusing on #birds & #mammals

Weil wir Bauern immer weniger Pestizide einsetzen, kämpft ein Agrarkonzernvertreter in der @NZZaS um seine Umsätze. Mit geradezu grotesken Argumenten. @SuisseBio sollte eine Gegendarstellung verlangen. @NZZSchweiz@KleinbauernVKMB@agrarallianz

In this article, we provide an overview of the global state of 7,039 edible plant species, and emphasize that this diversity stands in striking contrast with the few hundred food crops that mainstream agriculture currently relies on.

1/10 - we were pleased to host one of the @humboldtday events on 18/9. Thanks to all who participated. We are unfortunately unable to share recordings from the event, but will highlight some key papers and resources mentioned in the different talks in a series of tweets below
We are pleased to announce our next #BIOCHANGE seminar this fall with @MelodieAM - October 5, 2020 @ 9:00-10:00 am CEST - live on Zoom. Prof. McGeoch will give a talk on the insights on the science-policy interface from monitoring invasive spp. Host: @anordonez1. DM us to join!
These days everyone seems to thinks that "planting trees" is an important solution to the climate crisis. They're mostly wrong, and in this paper we explain why. Instead of planting trees, we need to talk about people managing landscapes. 1/x https://t.co/sZ8FdT2ZOA
It was a great pleasure to host a seminar by #BIOCHANGE affiliate & @AIAS_dk Fellow @JTKerby on the complexity of #Arctic#greening dynamics & how emerging tech can advance key Arctic research themes in ecological scaling, phenology & large herbivore impacts on tundra systems
